/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

whats the best way to go about the bottom of the staff? I want to make it more rough than in the game, like a gem that hasn't been "properly" cut, unlike how evenly cut it is in the game.

Should I make a pattern and cut & tint plexiglass into the weird gem shape and glue it together? Or would this be awkward since the shape is going to be so uneven that it might be hard to apply pressure for the glue?

Would making a base and using transparent worbla and tinting that be better?
