SciFi and Fantasy Art: Eye of Haberdaskrimus

A mighty 8 foot halberd created by Haberdaskrimus, the Holy of balance and equality himself. Powerful runes are engraved onto its curving blade. Enemies of the Equal beware, or feel the wrath of justice. This is currently my favouite weapon. I wanted a halberd... with a difference. So I thought a nice wavey blade would do :p I'm quite happy with the textures as well.

I do believe I've seen (half) this picture before 2 And yes, I can tell why it's your favourite. The blade looks very neat, very unique and very elegant at the same time. The runes too, are wonderful. I think I've said before, but the emeralds look a bit too synthetic...Otherwise it's a great picture. And the story to go with it sounds very interesting...

:-) Jamie Goodliffe replies: "Yep, you've seen the closeup bit before. And you commented about the emeralds, and I agree again that they are unrealistic, and that's because I forgot to put transparency on *kicks himself*. Who said they were emeralds anyway? 12"

:-) Jamie Goodliffe replies: "Glad to hear it has that effect on people 2"

Have suddenly realised that have not commented on all your pictures. This is a massively cool one, like all of them :] I like it, especially the runes. You did a marvellous job in this, I'm impressed. ^_^

:-) Jamie Goodliffe replies: "Thankee Drea! ^_^ The runes... actually Tolkiens *hides*. If I ever got round to making my own runes, I'd replace them. I really like the way this weapon turned out. Still one of my favourites up to this date 2"

I really like the idea of this. Yeah. The shape and overall idea is really cool and novel. The writing is relaly nifty too - you know what it says?

1 Jamie Goodliffe replies: "Cespenar makes good butler, yes? We takes the halberd of my own designs, and puts the runes of Tolkien on to its! Cespenar will have to get round to making own runes soon. Now I goes to find the recipes, yes? *dum de dum dee dum...*"

I think the design is cool but would break way to easy in
combat (but its still really cool!)

:-) Jamie Goodliffe replies: "Yeah it would break if it was a real weapon. If you haven't noticed already, Elfwood is a site for fantasy and sci-fi related art. Not for technical weapon design.So before you go criticizing anything, pause and consider the infintessimely large possibility that this is a fictional weapon, and therefore would be constructed of fictional materials, or have magical enchantments and so on.So maybe you should ahve thought about it first."
