Just another Sword Icon with a Bloodly Red Gem on its Handle.

what i meant is that the handle looks wierd when all the pieces of leather are going in different directions.

EDIT: now that i look closer at it the shadows on the "guard" (?) seems out of place as the right one is brighter than the left one, cause right now it looks like the left "guard" is further away than the rest of the sword.

I dont know if i make any sense, but if not tell me and i'll try to rephrase

Interesting icon, but it just doesnt fit as a war3 icon. Maybe if you added a slight variation of light in the background, so that it isnt plain black.
Also, I like your handle. The handles seem to be the best part of all of your icons.
This is better than 3/5, but not quite 4/5, so I'll give it a 3/5 and raise it to a 4/5 after you've improved it a bit.

Handle is a mess... you dont see sword handles look like that.
Maybe if it's just a basic old sword.
But i think you want something more with this sword when calling it "blood blade".
Maybe ur just lazy...
Other thing, the "wings" above the handle are not looking the same at all...
I'd recommend to copy one of them and paste and rotate so the wings look the same.
Anyway... pretty good one.
