Weapon Illustration Sketches

How about a composite longbow with a unity of rings motif? It is for a priest whose god's holy symbol is 3 interlocked rings.

Here you go Ferret... Clawed Septer...

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.

Darn, I forgot the "flanged" part of the request...

Wow! Hundreds of great drawings!

How 'bout you do a sword, but with a P90 gun in mind; y'know, huge handle and back, then tiny damage-doing front. I'd like it if it had very few curves, and small but fierce blade(s).

EDIT: maybe the large back could be used defensively..

 

[Ferret]

It's all good (the flanged part excepted), the claw would look nice with the end part straight against the rod bit, rather then set at an angle like it is.

Weapon Request

I know you're pretty backed up, but I'm hoping you can help me with a sketch of something I'm having trouble visualizing.
I'm experimenting with a campaign based on a book called "The Night Land". In that book, the common weapon of the country is called a Diskos, and it is described as follows:
"And here I must make known that these weapons did not shoot; but had a disk of grey metal, sharp and wonderful, that spun in the end of a rod of grey metal, and were someways charged by the Earth-Current, so that were any but stricken thereby, they were cut in twain so easy as aught. And the weapons were contrived to the repelling of any Army of Monsters that might make to win entrance to the Redoubt. And to the eye they had somewhat the look of strange battle-axes, and might be lengthened by the pulling out of the handles."
The Earth-Current, I think, is psychic energy.
Any sketch you have time to do for me would be very much appreciated. Long swords I understand. This thing is a little beyond me.
Thank you for your time.

That's a strange weapon....sounds like a buzzsaw onna stick.

Basically a metal disc set in a telescoping rod, similar dimensions to a battleaxe, but the disc spins?

 

[Knight Otu]

I think one of Tetsubo's Future weapon designs might come close to that, actually. Maybe I can find it.

Edit: I think I thought of this one, which isn't really that close.

Riflestock Warclub...

This is based on the real world warclubs created by Colonial Era Native Americans. I capped the ends to protect the open wood grain and prevent splitting.

Cool...I saw a weapon like that in an MRL catalogue, I think.
