a picture of a sword

Note the angle. I need your judgement. Thanks.

My first impression was more dagger than sword, so maybe you could try lenghten the blade.

Otherwise, looks pretty!

Oh, and now I realise you might have ment with that "note the angle", that it's pointing out from us. I'm not sure how to improve that, but I thought it was just pointing up-right. Perhaps (if this is the case) you should make it still bit more tilted and make the difference between handle (near "camera") and blade (far from "camera") bigger.

Hope this helps.

I like it on first impression.

Maybe (if it's supposed to be pointing away) you could add a slight gradient to the blade as it extends out.

Or, if you're wanting to use less colors, you should do what Mikko suggested and make the bottom of the hilt bigger than the top of the hilt.  It would make it more obvious that the sword is on an angle.

Also, the pommel (I think it's called, the part at the top of the hilt that extends out and up and is gold colored and pointy); I would make the spots where it connects to the hilt a little thicker ... but that's just me being picky!

The blade has perspective but the handle doesnt. Else its all good!

[MadReizka]

I tried too:



Not that good with the swords.

If you stab someone with that one, that'll be like stabing someone like three times

Interesting observation, 12431...

I'd just draw a few points on the handle, in perspective of the blade...

*whips out MS paint*

La di da da da....



Okay that sucked. But I'm trying to emphasise the handle, which also sucks. Okay that was a 2 second drawing. Just leave me alone. Okay but the shading and stuff, you get the point. Oh jesus.

Thanks Yufster, that's exactly what I needed! I'll edit the shading now. Thanks

Edit- I'm still acepting sugestions.
