:eek:

Would make a very cool weapon...nice :)

Why is it curved at the end ?

cuz its like a handle? o_O i unno i kinda like it :x

Cool.

Hi jer ^^ , looking good!

FOR ONCE HE'S SPEACHLESS! ;)

I like it besides the curved handle at the end.

heheh, thx guys, i'll take the curve outa the handle :D

yer, good stuff

Not if you appriciated my :eek: you won't.

heh, i guess the curve is staying, sry guys ^^;;

Don't mind the curve I would turn the blade around, so the main blade is away from the curve. I think thats right

Wow, very nice, the detailing is great.

Yeah, or turn the curve the other way.

Looks good though.

go jer go jer, u own aha u own aha :p keep ur work up dude u own

Nice graphic.. good detailing and nice its original :O

8/10 :O realy wow!

lolz i put "graal Jer axe" in google and found this link. ^^

mad old thread.

Mad huge bump! D:

Nice http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/3301/no1o.gif

fix your gif sir.

Also, nice looking indeed; looks like something i'd see on Zodiac.

he did work for zodiac at some point, so maybe some of his images are on there

Maybe.

Six years later and the handle still renders it less-than-functional.

I disagree, that end looks rather useful for rending/piercing purposes.

Yeah, but it's on the side that will obviously be used for chopping. Since it curves in that way, I imagine it would be clipping on your forearm or demanding odd wrist positions, depending on how you hold it. Imagine slashing at someone while holding a banana, you have to bend to fit the shape. If you attempted to use it the other way (predominantly attacking with that point), the axe heads would get in your way.

I guess.. But I don't see it as being used like that..

I'd have the axe held in an upright position aiming the head of the axe towards my opponent and advance the bottom end of the axe towards my opponent in an attempt to stab or gore him.

Enjoy having your own shoulder mauled by the second axe head.

Okay. Have fun not using a weapon to full flexibilities.

haven't you ever used a woodcutting axe?.... curved for better grip and to aid in the swinging motion.... but thats just reality...

you take graal a litle too serious when you see every graphic of a weapon, you want to wield it on graal... but oh wait it cant poke you on the shoulder ... in graal?.. in reality you are staring at a screen pushing a button..

it also was never on zodiac and was never intended to be on any server at all.

its a gfx ... look at it comment dont ramble like kia about randomest crap ever.

I own the biggest mountain range on the forums, and it started as a minute molehill.

That doesn't have a spike, and they are not swung haphazardly as they would be in combat. The entire handle is shaped to better facilitate your hands in the repetitive motion you use them for.

No, but if you design a weapon, one should design it with function in mind. Ask yourself if this would work, what are the designs flaws, why should this choice be made. That's why I think Elk is one of the worst pixel artists ever. None of his stuff makes sense.


I am commenting, critiquing even. It's not rambling at all. Suck it up Jer, people have said what I said about this axe six years ago.

This is probably the only part that was necessary, rest pretty much ruined the post :(

i stoped caring what you say when i saw "elk is a bad artist"...

you clearly dont understand the concept of pixel art but i had a vision of you typing a whole page about how your have such a great opinion. if you say elk is bad then your opinion honestly mean nothing at all and i dont take anything you say as constructive critisism.

its also one if the first gfx ive made thus the date.

and finally you are just annoying kia not helpfull in anyway. its like a drummer trying to tell a guitar playing how to play when neither have practiced the others art.

annoying.

Jer, I am only trying to be helpful! Graphics, especially weapons, are much more appealing to a broader range of people when you make them logical! Elk undeniably has great talent, but he made a deal with the devil and traded his grip on reality for that.

So pretty much just this?
Because the first part seemed important on a technical level, explaining how his comparison to a lumber axe was completely backward when applied to a weapon.

Positive commentary > Negative insulting commentary
Just sayin'

The last part was a good way to sour your assistance.

He's good

wow old thread found on google.

i luv google

fix the curve!!

never!!! its the increase the leverage when chopping like a wood cutting axe. :p

since we have an "axe to grind" (i stole his joke) with some people.

Physics lesson! (what are the chances this guy who blogged about the axe handle acutally lives really close o_O)
