SciFi and Fantasy Art: Crystalline sword

Ahhhh can you describe the wonderful feeling of cutting something/someone in two pieces with one swing of your own crystalline sword?ŋ Just one things make me dissapointed with this sword, it's the.... yeah you know the yellow-gold thing (not the sword). I need help and advice howe to make it more 'living' .

Hey, it's Fiona from the next page over to your left. Yea. I haven't been drawing very long, so this advice may or may not be of any use but... you could try making the gold darker, using the current shade for a shine on its surface. And, if the blade's meant to be crystalline, you might try a bit of icy-blue shine in there too. Hope this will help. *Great* sword! I would surrender if *I* was at the tip of *that* weapon. Heh-heh. Keep up the good work.

Maybe give it a hint of an inner glow or something? It has really nice shape.

Humm. . . I do like the simplicity, and the shape, although Rowan has a point -- it does look like the sword from Diablo 2. Were you inspired by that?

Anyway, my advice would be to add some shading -- make one half of the sword (longwise) darker than the other half, to indicate sharp edges and a light source, and add a few bars of light across the blade. If it's crystal, maybe make the edges a bit rougher and add sparkles.

Hope that helps!

One tip. The sword handle are the same. The hilt is slid on. All of it would be a tad bit shinier. 2 Good picture anyways.
