I just recently bartered for a Calimacil weapon, the Erik Axe. I got it from a reseller who deals in latex and foam weapons, etc.

It appears this is one of the older designs (the shaft has the runes and I'm not sure if you do that anymore) and it also seems to also have fading paint. Even when striking the axe head, or touching it, it seems the metal/grey looking paint is coming off and stains the hand slightly. Some areas look a bit faded, not too bad though

Any suggestions on re-application of the colors (black, gold, maybe some brown) and then sealing it with a clear coat to protect it from further wear? An suggestions on specific materials are most appreciated.

Thanks!

I found this a little while back when I was thinking about painting up my sword.  Hope it helps.

I've been trying to get in contact with my canadian overlords since monday to ask this very question, in addition to a few others.

Please stand by :-P

"I'm willing to take that chance!"
