You're very mistaken.

I did not just blatantly recolor the broad sword, I took the broad sword graphic, and I actually colored over that, with different shades and colors from the original inferno sword. Go ahead and compare the Inferno broad sword over the original, you will find cracks in the blade, in different places, and the shading and placement of pixels will be bit different than that of the original. This was not a 5 second recolor job. This took time, and hard work.

Second, the fire, Not only did make a good 3 frame fire animation around the border of the blade, but I also made a good transparent fire animation over the actual blade it self. That is much more than "a bit of fire".

Third I used a slightly modified version of the Inferno Sword Handle because.. Its an inferno sword! Ya know why I used some other peoples work for reference? Because it is supposed to fit in with their work! This isn’t supposed to be a weapon made from scratch, yet with all the time I took on it, and the process I went through to ensure that it looked better than a blatant recolor it might as well be so.
