The arc goes the end of the handle all through the shaft and up to the blade tip, with an edge on the outside (I merely said scimitar as it was curved, forgetting it's blade-sidedness) The Handle is about 15", blade at 28". Total blade length 43", the ratio is about 1:2, blade width no bigger then 1 and a half inches wide. The only ornamentation are the studs on the handle.

I want it to look like it is one piece of material, not two stuck together, thus no hand guard ok?

OK, I'll see what I can come up with. Might take a few days. I need to get notes together for Friday night's game.

Holy crap!!!
This is the best thread ever.

*Thank you. My goal is to make this thread both useful and entertaining.

You guys do incredible work.

*Thanks again. I just do the sketches though. The renderings are done by those far more talented than I am.

Where do you find the time?

*I actually make an effort to put time aside to sketch. I try to do this everyday but it doesn't always work out. I find sketching to help quite a bit in relieving stress.

Tetsubo, your wood grain texture is unbelievable.

*Thank you, that means quite a bit to me. I have been trying rather hard to get the wood grain to look realistic. I think I might have it down.

Keep the artwork coming.

*I'll try.

I have a character with bracers of archery (if you get time maybe you could crank out a little something with an elven flair).

Ok, I'll see what I can do. Ferret also has a request in at the moment. I'll probably just draw one bracers, you can make a copy.

No problem, take care of Ferret and any other works in progress first.

One bracer is great, but only if you have extra time.

I will sit back and enjoy all of your work until then.

I had a rather frustrating evening and needed a sketch to relax. So here is your Bracer of Archery. Is it close to what you envisioned?

 

[Tetsubo]

Here you go Ferret. Is it close to what you wanted?

Throwing steel...

 

[Ferret]

That is what you call a weapon!!! My favoutite piece! Wooh!

I hat to say something bad about all your art but this [ringed bit] isn't what I asked for. But as it says for some reason that goes against what I think, neigh know, I like it. Pure genious.

 

[Ferret]

Oh thought I'd return the favour, I don't know if you like it but its the most I can do to pay you back for now, for your viewing pleasure, Scimitar

Constructive comments don't bother me. I added the small wood section because you asked for the Elven Waraxe shaft with a scimitar blade. So I translated the *entire* shaft into the sword sketch. Didn't know you wanted it left out. Is the sketch as it now stands good enough or should I do a second version? Any other changes?

OH YEAH!

That's sweet. Thank you very much. It has become quite a large part of my character, and now I have a wonderful visual for everyone.
