Description

“The last bade crafted by Androval as an apprentice. Simple, functional, and reliable, like Androval himself.”
-- Anonymous


Now that August has past, I'm far more open to working on commissions for now. Thus Josh has quite a few for me to complete.

You ever think about having your creations forged in steel? I just think they'd kick some serious ass. There's a few swordsmiths on deviantart, check out this guy: Longship Armoury . Even if you'd never entertain the idea of bringing your blades to life, I think you'd enjoy his work.

Nothing would honestly make me happier to see some of my stuff brought to life like that, but... well, lately I just feel like my designs don't deserve that kind of treatment.

Gorgeous and realistic look. This is how fantasy blades should look: slightly slylized, but beautiful and simple with an apparent story behind them.

Glad ya like. And agreed. Anything too flashy/intricate can look too anime or childish to me.

And a fine blade it is. Nice job, it actually 'feels' like a sword well used.

I love the designs on the hilt guard and on the bottom part of the blade.

Thanks.

The hilt guard is something that doesn't sit right with me for some reason... yet then I think it looks fine at the same time. So... *shrug*

MandalorianKnight In reply to Aikurisu [2010-09-05 21:06:59 +0000 UTC]

I think the hilt guard looks really good, I looked at it for a while and try to see if there was anything that is off and I couldn't find anything.
