Horns and Honed Steel
Well, faux steel in this case. This collection of LARP safe foam knives and horns comes to us from Sander Propworx. I'm continually amazed at how realistic his props are.

Stolen Dynamite
One of the unfortunate side effects of giving resources away is discovering your work is being sold for profit. Such is the case with this "Dynamite Prop" from Shadowcast Studios. You could save a chunk of change by just printing out my Blast-O brand prop dynamite label and wrapping it around a dowel- just like Shadowcast Studios did.
Sadly, they're violating the Creative Commons Non-Commercial License I use for everything here at Propnomicon. I want folks to use my stuff. Just don't monetize it without asking permission.
UPDATE: Shadowcast has pulled the offending listing after a torrent of negative comments. You guys are great.

Cthulhu Icon
This primitive Cthulhu icon comes to us from CaaPora Creature Shop. The iridescent black and purple finish is pretty cool.
Update: Sadly, CaaPora's artifact description appears to be a direct lift from Jason McKittrick's "Mayan Cthulhu Artifact". Definitely not cool

Oh, just take the damn thing." ―SheogorathYugoro crafted this excellent recreation of the Wabbajack staff from the Elder Scrolls video game series. It features a detailed sculpt of the tripartite head, breaks down into multiple pieces for transport, and includes LED lighting effects. If you want to see how it was done check out the detailed build log on Medium.
