Sisters of the sword forge LEGO blades
For the Geneva sisters Anna, Sarah, and Geneva (aka Three Little Mice, Tayaya, and Geneva D), creating with LEGO is a family affair. The three talented builders collaborated on a series of life-size swords to showcase at this year’s Brickworld, each forging a personal blade with its own personality.
Geneva’s broadsword, dubbed Kalypso, is the largest of the three, requiring two hands to hold. Using brown and metallic silver (and a touch of Spinjitzu!) on the hilt for a studded leather look, this is clearly the blade of a warrior. She pairs the sword with the smaller and more play-friendly dagger, Acheron, which boasts a serrated blade and a menacing Hero Factory spiked ball on the hilt.
Sarah achieves a more elegant look with a sleek blade and gold detailing on the hilt. Continuing the trend (inspired by this epic blade from Random Vector), a bit of chain built from “macaroni tubes” dangles from the pommel.
Last but not least, Anna’s short sword amps up the fantasy elements with a black blade tinged with bright purple and infused with energy from interlaced wands. Each of the four weapons uses wings from a different LEGO creature from different themes. Can you recognize them all? (Answers: A, B, C, D)
Finally, the sisters Durand give their brick-built weapons a truly epic tribute in a mock movie poster, pairing builder and blade with full costume. It’s like they say, sisters that play together slay together.
