If you saw the real drawing you would o.O I've put alot of effort into details, which i said, are lost now.
It may have been less hours, I was a bit drunk when I drew that aswell.
I just remember I've worked on it till 4-5 AM at night o.O

I thought it looked similar to some "Atlantis" style so yea, mythological fused with futuristic since there are quite some mechanical parts on it.
The concept art was never meant to represent the pixelsword, it's the opposite the concept art is to represent the pixelsword, since I used the pixelsword as reference to draw the concept lol.
Also Rufus, no need to be sceptical just because I wont gfx for Graal 2k1.
My Concept pls:
A WIP

There's a bit of a difference between the concept and the outcome for the server, and while I do think the concept is nice, I don't think the sword is and neither are exactly original. It's not a case of being bitter, I showed several people without saying anything, and they gave similar feedback.

When looking at the pixel version, I feel as though it is a lot more stiff than the concept, and it doesn't really do itself any justice. The jewel area seems to be a lot more pivotal in the concept, and a lot more alive; I personally feel that is where it is most attractive, and it seems to be brushed off. I think the choice of colors, especially the lime (and possible other recolors, I've seen some) aren't fitting, but that's really up to you, it's your sword.

Did you give it a name by the way?
