Sad to say I've based my model on a sword from a book, and it's quite blue in there
Anyway, just finished the UV mapping, after having to redo the blade and the crossguard...
I'm gonna get to texturing one of these days, but I'm not sure yet when exactly.

It wouldn't be the master sword would it....

Nah that things purple with wings I think?!

Have you ever seen a book about the Legend of Zelda?
No, it's not the Master Sword.

Ding-ding-ding! We have a winner!
Although:

My aim is to continue working on this sword to recreate one I read about (the sword Brisingr from the Inheritance cycle.

But yeah, I'm trying to make that one based on the description in the books, and although it's not a very remarkable sword, it's key feature is it's blue colour, so I'm gonna stick to that

[Gimli]

ooopsie, havent read that.
the same book: tamerlein, a green sword and im not sure but i think its also an 1 1/2hander. so you dont have to make it blue there is still the green option (and a red one, zar´roc ...)

they are all the same swords, just different colours. so you could make this sword in different colours and the names fitting to this colour.
i would do it myself if you werent already doing brisingr and im also too lazy to learn what i would need for it

[FF_Skywalker]

But zar' roc is bigger.

[Gimli]

smaller. i only want a green good looking craftable 1,5 sword

brisingr, zar´roc, naegling, tamerlein and the other one : i have no idea

[FF_Skywalker]

And Galbatorix? His sword :o

[Gimli]

its not in the picture how you can see, but his one was white. (its the stolen sword of vrael)

i think we both should be quite now, we spammed enough maroon´s thread

The last one is Undbitr, Brom's old sword, which he lost when Saphira I died.
And these pictures are rather inaccurate, as it's clearly said in the books that the crossguard and the claws holding the gem are also coloured like the sword itself.
Also, there's no insignia's on these blades or sheathes, and Brisingr's blade is supposed to be a bit less wide than Zar'roc, which it isn't in this picture.
I've done my research, hehe

But if this sword works out, I might make some more of the Inheritance swords
The problem is, though, all swords were custom made, so they're all fitting for a different fighting style, with a different balance. Like when Eragon tries Tamerlein, he instantly knows it doesn't fit him, because the balance isn't good for him.

thumb up!
thats what i wanted to hear
