Halberd & Lochaber Axe
Okay, I've decided to try and make a Halberd... Please comment and tell me what I can do about that blade - it just doesn't look like a Halberd...
EDIT: Okay, so far...

Re: Halberd
We are trying to get rid off solid black outlines in icons and sprite sheets. Look at this topic for some additional reference:

Re: Halberd
Added a poll... Dawn here thinks the 1st one would be okay if the blade was downsized, but...
EDIT: Okay, something's wrong with the poll - I remove options so there's only two left, but every time I submit it it mysteriously doubles the amount of options it had previously...

Re: Halberd
Yeah, but now that I look at it it looks nothing like a halberd... more of a cross between an axe and a scythe...
Re: Halberd
It looks more like a lochaber than a halberd.

- Halberd... I think I should use gray for the shaft as well, but then it wouldn't be so... I dunno, it just seems wrong.

Re: Halberd & Lochaber Axe
The metal parts of the weapons are looking really nice!
The wood (bamboo?) handles on the other hand, look...not right. Perhaps it's the shading? Or maybe it's the ends stopping so abruptly?

I'll make it brown, then... I was originally going to use brown, but somehow I used orange, yellow and red...

Re: Halberd & Lochaber Axe
Okay, I know this topic is nearly 3 weeks old, but I didn't want to see my work come to naught, so...
Not going to attach the Lochaber Axe, I'm ashamed of it right now...
