@shiro4833 Жыл бұрын

18:39 Tyranth is absolutely right, the red can stay, the blue and white are too irritating. As a bit of an artist myself, I think there should be a full steel version with the blue of the logo a bit darker than the rest and the white slightly lighter, but still silver. As for the red part, make it a gem. For the replica, a glass gem would work just fine, but in the book, you could make it a garnet or a ruby. I think the blue and red on the same sword would be, like Tyranth said, too flamboyant, too many colors in one place, but making it fully steel would be too bland and the sword of a main character deserves more than that. But a full steel version with a bright red gem in it is the perfect balance between the two. Also, red is just a neat color, Tyranth is absolutely right. But that's just my advice, it's your sword, do whatever you fancy. Great design over all, on both this one and Imperius!

As a thought, why not make up a 'Knight of Shadiversity' package once the swords are done? Source some good items to put in it, then when people order them you can bring in all the pieces and ship them out at a bit of an upcharge for putting it all together, maybe get a deal from the suppliers for working in bulk or something? Could even make it a kickstarter.

And that is a really cool sword design, I've wondered before what it might look like if you were to condense everything you love about swords into a single design for production. How would that be different if you were designing your "best sword" for steel instead of foam? Also, I don't know if the colours are a problem; they could make coloured enamel in medieval times, couldn't they? High end swords could be _very_ fancy.

Watching this, I think the painted pommel of the prototype sword would be the sort of thing they would do back then. Something vibrant that draws your eye. I also wonder if in combat it would help to distract your enemy by drawing their eye to the brightly painted pommel instead of the sharp steel blade. Otherwise I would like to get one with the painted pommel, I actually like it. You could also have an excuse to make a shabbard with red white and blue accents to match.
