Chorrol.com _ Fan Art _ Sword concept sketch
Posted by: Ambberfox Jun 8 2005, 10:20 PM
I stumbled over an old drawing I did like 2 years ago and somehow thought "why not put that in here"? 
I'm really looking forward to find out if it'll be possible to create your own weapons/swords in TESIV, that would be great; that's the type of sword I would do then

Looks very nice. Are you going to finish the handle?
Posted by: ShogunSniper Jun 8 2005, 11:21 PM
handles a bit big for the blade, imo either make lade longer or handle smaller (not shorter)
Posted by: vaanic~one Jun 9 2005, 12:36 PM
looks very nice, certainly something that i would like to use in OB!

you're right, there's also the question wether the sword is supposed to be handled with two or only one hand, at the moment the long handle makes it look as if the sword is not very long ... in case I ever find that old drawing again I think I'll fix that problem... or maybe I'll do a completely new drawing instead

Nice Ambber... nice shading too... :goodjob:
Posted by: Wolfie Jun 10 2005, 02:03 PM
certainly looks like a tool for causing pain as opposed to clean kills lol

Liking it 
would look awesome in 3D methinks.....all the chinks in the blade etc

yup, it might turn out pretty interesting :lickinglips: in case you're actually interested in doing that feel free to do so, I could also provide you with some more sketches as a reference once I'm finished with that annoying thing I gotta do for school

Sure that sounds great i've also gotta clear up a few things (namely the next daedra) but i'm sure i can find some time to do it justice

ok, I'll remind you of that sword in 3D once I've got more time to draw again :goodjob:
Posted by: MerGirl Jun 10 2005, 08:59 PM
Oooh, me likey, Amberfox! I wish I could draw awesome swords/weapons/shields! 
Anyway, is it supposed to be a two-handed sword? Just asking since the handle looks kind of longish.. :ashamed:
Loving it, though!

thanks a lot, glad to hear you like it 
It's a very old drawing so the quality isn't really up-to-date anymore. Honestly, I can't really remember wether it was supposed to be a two-, or one-handed sword but at the moment it's rather looking like a very heavy one-handed one
Posted by: Konradude Jun 10 2005, 10:52 PM
I must say I wouldn't wield that thing. It looks ancient. :goodjob: Great drawing nevertheless.
Posted by: Ambberfox Jun 10 2005, 11:00 PM
I'm really looking forward to see Darkwing's version of it
Posted by: Dantrag Jun 11 2005, 05:42 AM
me too, now that you said he's doing one
Posted by: Fuzzy Knight Jun 11 2005, 12:05 PM
BTW... Ambber did u draw it on Photoshop, or totally on hand now... without the board ? 
Posted by: Ambberfox Jun 11 2005, 12:08 PM
that thing was drawn with pencils, at that time I didn't even have a Graphic Tablet

nice Ambberfox
Posted by: Ze Milanio Jul 21 2005, 01:06 PM
Ooooooh *lics lips like a loony* this is one mean swordie !! However, it's handle doesen't look too long to me, in fact it's thickness and the wideness of the blade itself makes me think that this looks more like a shortsword ? Wonderful, wonderful job, Ambberfox !
Anyway, you have reminded me of something I draw way back when I wanted to do some modding - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v462/Milanius/ravensclaw.jpg was supposed to be enchanted shortsword of Sorkvild the Raven in MW, but then I found out that I don't know the first thing about modding (like, how to put a sword in right format and then, into the game :paperbag: ). However, since this sword is now freeware I am willing to give it up for adoption - for experiments and such (DW, *wink, wink* )

just a quick knock up of the sword in 3D.
Posted by: Fuzzy Knight Jul 28 2005, 02:17 PM
Wow nice Darkwing... Think the final version is going to look sweet Nice
Posted by: Konradude Jul 28 2005, 04:30 PM
Bootiful. I'd like to keep that in my drawers. i wouldn't use it though, just let people look at it.
Posted by: Dantrag Jul 28 2005, 10:47 PM
why not? If I owned that sowrd, I would quickly find a job as an assassin.
(great job, by the way darkwing. And update your story!)

Woah, K3wl! 
Posted by: MerGirl Jul 29 2005, 12:08 AM
Very cool! 
Though it looks a little too flat (from this view, it looks like), no offense. Isn't it a little too thin, though? *is not a weapons-master* Looks very shatterable, in my humble opinion. 
*blushes*

Plus, i feel that this thin and serated blade looks a lot more lethal. Kind of like a stiletto blade.

It's very nice Darkwing.
Posted by: Mazuk Aug 1 2005, 09:24 PM
Very nice Darkwing, would be better if my pc wasn't broke and I could really see it.

Isn't it a little too thin, though? *is not a weapons-master* Looks very shatterable, in my humble opinion. *blushes*Well, we dont really know what material its made out of. I doesn't think it looks thin, at least when I look at the shadows, and it doesn't look so much like a combat blade either, short and a bit 'destroyed'
At my first view, could more look like some evil cults sacrifice dagger or something
Posted by: Ambberfox Aug 12 2005, 02:45 PM
awesome, darkwing! 
turned out even better than I had expected! It's really interesting to see that sketch of mine come to life!

Hilt needs a little more work and i need to apply more intracacy to it
Posted by: Ambberfox Aug 12 2005, 04:30 PM
something that would also be great: the skull on the red gemstone (like on the sketch) of course you don't really have to put it there if you don't feel like doing that
Posted by: Konradude Aug 12 2005, 05:38 PM
It's really Ambberfox! Yay, Ambberfox is back!! Hail God Ambberfox!!! etc..
Posted by: Darkwing Aug 18 2005, 01:33 PM
of course you don't really have to put it there if you don't feel like doing that lol didnt even see the skull
