Shiver down my spine.

Hey everyone, recently I have been doing loads of modern sprites so i thought of doing something different for a change.

Here's my result of my doodling turned sword:
Well, if u squint real hard, you might see that i was attempting to make the blade out of a spine.

I think it looks nice so far

Although, maybe you should increase the size of the handle, seems a bit too short now. A sword of that size would probably be wielded with two hands. However, right now one hand barely fits.

As I said, other than that, it is nice

Really amazing work on that one! I love pretty much everything about it, but the handle is a little bit too short. 4px more would do I believe.

He's posting it on a Graal forum, so it's assumed as he didn't say it wasn't for Graal .

All this means is that some of Zodiac's swords are too large.

That's really a matter of personal preference. I don't see anything wrong with the size of the sword even if it were intended for Graal. I certainly believe this particular sword is around the upper limit of what I'd find acceptable in terms of size, though. But you really need to remember this is in fact a fantasy game where imagination is relatively free to roam.

You didn't bother to even attempt to fix the 45 degeree angle?

Like Clockwork said, it's just a rotation of the 90 degree to 45 with a bit of the rotation garbage on the edges cleaned up not a different style. All the little details were destroyed with it. I.e: The edges in the blade are now completely flattened. Considering that is most likely image that will be shown the gani it should probably be fixed up.

I did, rotating it gave me a whole load of stray pixels, i sort of fixed the outline. and the skull. Guess i have more work to fix the blade.

And why did u have to sound so hostile? You aren't the Aeko i remember :/

I will fix it up, no worries. As for the edges i kinda smoothened them up myself
And why would it even be in a gani when this isn't exactly meant for graal?

I believed i already said that this wasnt originally made with graal in mind. And i dont think its any wrong to post a graphic in this forum just to gather criticism.

Instead i would appreciate if u commented on my graphic instead.
