Tetsubo, love your work For some reason i especially like all your "dwarf" themed weapons. Alot. They gave me some great insirations for magical/unusual weapons for my players. i love it when i can show them a picture. Now i only need to convince someone to actually use doubleweapons or polearms... 
Keep it up!

Thank you Targeteron.
As for convincing players to use a double weapon or polearm... try selling the versatility angle. Many of my double weapons have different ends to give the user more options in combat. that's why I sketch them that way at least.

Thanks, Tetsubo! That's awesome. Now to convince someone to draw the character.
You'd think with an art degree I'd have some skills in drawing, but....
And polearms are an easier sell than doubles, usually, but a bludgeon/slashing weapon can be nice. Also, to get polearm lovin', take a look at a couple feats from netbooks and the like - they can make stuff fun. There's also a psionic feat - Stand Still - that's nasty with a polearm.

Orc Gutblade...
Inspired by a cane knife:

This weapon has a partial tang, it would end just below the third rivet on the shaft. The hole in the blade just above the wood shaft is for storage, allowing the item to hang on a wall.

Dwarven Combat Spade...
I had a request for a shovel that had been modified into a weapon. After thinking about it for quite some time I just wasn't inspired. I've seen such weapons in movies and in games before. Then I saw this:

It's a Japanese gardening knife. I increased the size and gave it a full length shaft. I imagine it as the sort of weapon that would evolve from a Dwarven school of martial arts.

Hehe i like the combat spade. Now i will HAVE to put in a crazed dwarfen or gnomish miner somewhere wich will dualwide a combat spade and combat crowbar *G* Unusual weapons like this make my day. The Obsidian sword looks really good, i can just imagine a Druid using it in combat.
Since one of your imho best weapons was the fiendish spear, i would love to see some more "fiendish" weapons. I would also like to see what you can come up with when i throw out the words "Bone" "Club" "Blooddrinking"
