Loki Staff – How to Make a Loki Costume Staff that Actually Glows

Here is the first part of the Loki Costume tutorial. Itโ€™s a fairly simple and inexpensive way to make a Loki staff that actually lights up.

Loki Staff - How to Make a Loki Costume Staff that Actually Glows

You will need:
Loki Staff template
Cardboard (I used photo mount board)
Scissors or x-cacto knife
Hot glue gun
Broom handle
Mini flashlight
Blue plastic gem
Silver and gold metallic paint

I didnโ€™t have time to film my Loki costume while I was making it for the comic con last fall. There were two costumes to make, Thor and Loki, and I only had time to film one. I assumed Thor would be the popular one, so I filmed that one (you can see the Thor costume tutorials here), but it ends up Loki is actually the more popular Asgardian brother. As such, Iโ€™ve gotten several requests to do a Loki costume tutorial.

Since my costume has already been made, I canโ€™t show the full making of it, but I do break it down and explain how I did it. This is part one (the rest will follow in the coming weeks), Lokiโ€™s staff. For the blade pieces, you can either draw them free hand, or use the free template here.

    The template link only downloaded the bracers and not the staff. Can I get an email copy of the template for the staff?
