kikoteiOr at least the drafting.
The drafting is done full scale, and by eye. I really couldn't find as many pictures as I would have liked of the swords. Or at the very least animator reference photos. And don't worry, I did use a ruler because let's face it, I couldn't draw a straight line to save my life.
Sword 1 - Rough pencil lines around the hilt and crosspiece.
Sword 2 - Rough pencil lines for the bottom of the crosspiece and the blade.
Sword 3 - Close up (sorry for the fuzziness) of the underside of the crosspiece. I'm very proud of that for some reason.
Sword 4 - Finished draft and templates for the crosspiece.
Sword 5 - Templates for the crosspiece.
Sword 6 - Close up of the hilt.
I have to redo the pommel a bit. Seems a tad lopsided. So I've got to remeasure a little.
And next, Sakka-chan's sword!
