"Shi Haile" by Jenny Olivera

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 49 out of 63 by Jenny Olivera. ←Previous - Next→


	Done in my highschool photography class with a mechanical pencil. The rose-entwined dagger is the emblem for the central country in my fantasy world, Shi Haile (which means Rose Dagger).

22 Apr 2001	Stavros Tsiakalos	Loading... I think the hilt turned out a bit larger that it should...or the blade a bit smaller? Nice light shading though, I myself find it difficult to keep shades this lightIt's a small, thin blade - although I think I did that because I ran out of paper.
2 Aug 2001	Nathan Neil Phillips	Loading... This is a very elegant symbol. I like how delicate the rose petals look. They don't look too much like a rose though. It's more like a rosetta pattern made of metal or a different flower.I always thought it looked more like a carnation than a rose, although it doesn't look like a realistic either one. I was into drawing very stylized flowers back then.
30 Jan 2002	Victoria Kuzma	Loading... I say it every day about a zillion times, but I LOVE clean pencil work. I'll have to use mechanical pencil sometime. The shading and design of the dagger is gorgeous and it's neat how the rose is growing up the blade. Oh, the rose, by the way, looks just like a climbing rose, so it looks realistic enough for me.Really? I'll have to get me some pictures of climbing roses!
