Pyramidhe@d: Wooden handle, moon decorations, star background which all relates to the theme of elf.
A very good example of using subject-related imagery.

EDIT: New Version

The handle seems quite big at the moment, also i would work on the sharpness of the blade because it looks like its wooden or some sort of butter knife.

 

[kola]

ok. removed the lil stars, they werent very visible. changed the blade. and added some runes.

 

[Panda]

Looks nice now. I would just fix the handle a bit now because it still seems quite big.

 

[kola]

hmm.. idk, i find it normal. the sword is long, this is just a zoom of the handle and the start of the sword.

The handle is not the typical Sword-Handle. It is to short and to thick. Imagine yourself holding a 3 Kilo sword with such a handle. You would surely pinch some of your fingers in the first combat.
But more probably the blade will fall of in the first strike. It does not look really attached to the handle, especially because the curvature of the upper edge of the handle is not the same as the curvature of the blade. And maybe make the blade smaller so the top of the handle is visible on all sides.

 

[kola]

first of all, this is supposed to be a one-handed sword. (simply cus its a night elf sword, they never have two-handed sword )

And maybe make the blade smaller so the top of the handle is visible on all sides.

nah, its weird cuz A-o-P says me to make the handle more little and u want me to do handle bigger. so i guess i'll stick on this size

 

[AlienAtSystem]

Its the handle shape im complaining about. Its not an kind of handle i would like to hold single-handed in the middle of a battle, because:
1. Its missing a crossguard. One false block and the hand is off
2. You cant really grab it because all fingers will slide in the thinner part in the middle and stack there.

 

[kola]

well, i can do something for the second point, but u cant have a cross guard on an elf sword dude.

anyways, Elves are pro dodger, dont need to block haha

but yeah, i think i'll restart it completly. (the handle)

just not today. i dont have the time to.

Looks cool, but the handle? :/ It looks like a candle pad, just how would you wield such sword?
