Two days of #Swordtember2022...

Day 15, Dual-Purpose. A sword-and-plunger wielded by the cleaners at a wizard school while unclogging the drainpipes in alchemical labs.

Day 16, Shell. Lost control of form and ran out of energy to fix it... so have a half-formed shell sword.

#Swordtember #Swordtember2022 Day 12, Woven. Wielded by villagers living in a swampy forested habitat, this blade is good for scything through verdant grass, and defending against opportunistic predators waiting inside the undergrowth.
Inspiration: basket weaving

#Swordtember2022 Day 11, Neon. I got a request to reimagine Frostmourne from #Warcraft. Here it is, reforged in gas discharge tubes, Perspex, and phosphorescent 'glow in the dark' runes.

#Swordtember #Swordtember2022 Day 9, Floral. Arranged by florists - the blacksmiths of their world - for formal duels of flowers, where scent and beauty are deadly. I was testing out painting with greys in this one.

#Swordtember #Swordtember2022 Day 8, Veined. Custom-forged and wielded by a vampire mercenary, who gets paid in money and the blood of her employers' foes.
