Weapon Design Sketch -- Aisha's Boomerang and Dragonblade
Just another thing that I sketched up in my free time at work; thought I'd put it up here before I decide to color it. x3
For a long time, I wanted to try and pin a definitive design for Aisha's two main weapons. I think I finally might have; the sword I've always had a good idea on, but the boomerang less so. It's always just been drawn like a silvery bent and pointed thing, with the handle on various edges. x3 Now I've given it a little more thought, I wanted it to still look simple and effective, but stylish.
And yes, I know that a boomerang of this shape wouldn't probably fly in real life. x3 Nor does a weaponized boomerang actually return to you. But thankfully, living in a fantasy world, there's magic for that. :D I'm just happy that I managed something a bit more imaginative, and best of all, something to pin future drawings of it on and future descriptions in my mind.
Hopefully you can read my notes in my messy handwriting x3 But if not, it'll all be touched up in Photoshop later.

Very nice designs :) I especially like the look of the boomerang; the handle design is what I imagined it to be, but I really like the little touches like the Cabre ensign and the fact that the blade dulls when the weapon is in its holster. Great work!
I should really do the same with Gar's weapons and equipment; I've pretty much got the sword down, but been thinking about giving him something like a bow and arrow for a bit of range, and maybe something like a grapple hook.
Anywho, great stuff. :)
P.s., I noticed you've given Aisha wrappings on her handson, nice design touch :)

Much thanks! =)
Heh, and yeah, it'd be neat to see something on Gar's weapons too...the grapple hook thing sounds like that'd be cool! I kinda imagine a thing that can be carried or hidden easily until used, having folding hooks, like what Lara Croft uses (Anniversary/Legend/Underworld Lara Croft that is; I dunno about the new games Lara, haven't checked them out yet. >.>).
And thanks, the hand wrappings were actually fairly recently added. x3 Quite useful for adventuring, and for fire punches, heh!
