Weapon Illustration Sketches

Hi.
I am creating a new weapon for my character and would like to get a sketch of it if at all possible. Think of it as a mini-batleth (the very same weapon a klingon wields two-handed) wielded on one hand. The grip is a bar that is horizontal, attached to a metal guard that protects the hand as well as join the grip the the base of the curved blade part. Can you come up with a concept sketch of this?

thanks much in advanced if you can.

I can think about it at least. No promises.

How wide would it be from tip to tip?

What about a bit of a sadistic weapon. Something that holds a intimidating look but with no frills, every spike and edge could be used within reason to do some form of harm to any creature within threatened range

Type of the weapon I would like to leave upto you.

I did a polearm in 9/03 that might be what you are looking for...

I am thinking about 2 feet at the very most. If that doesn't work, it can go down to 18 inches wide.

I appreciate your efforts in this :)

Oh that does look rather mean, pain in the rear for anyone on the other end that has low rolls. Trips with lower set of projections and disarm attempts with ones along the upper curve.
 


Wow. That is pretty cool tetsubo...thanks so much for the sketch, it is awesome. Not what I originally had in mind, but now that I see your inspiration, I like it much better. Again, thanks so much for this :)
 

What about a claw like blade, about 1 1/4 ft long, very shallow curve. This would be seated on the end of a 2ft, maybe a slight more, long rod. The rod would have an emperial feel to it, maybe a simple spiral? At the end would be a flanged mace, 'head' (even though it would be at the end). Both ends should hold some kind of rustic, clan, symbolic significance.

I'm glad it works for you. :)
 

Wow, I didn't seethat at first but I really like it. I think it could be put in your Top Five (by my opinion anyway). The spikes are, just the right distance apart, and just long enough. Perfect.
