Gramma Hamma (Grammer Nazi hammer)

mnphear

Hy guys i'm posting my WIP Gramma Hamma here.

I started this project because all the people crying on forums and other sites about grammer Nazies...



I'm planning to add the Grammer Nazi G on the end of the hammer (that circle on both sides)

Selaznog

Awesome idea! Looks good so far, and this just just a nitpicky thing but I think instead of ancient runes on the cloth, maybe if you had some problem words? Like their, there, they're etc. Also, I'm not a fan of where the cloth is on the hammer. It feels like it would just fall off. It'd look cool if it was wrapped around the handle and hung off the end of the handle

@Selaznog: Yes, i thing it would be better if there would be something else than runes...first i was going on somewhat like that "EPIC" look, so i remembered the runes...for the cloth i thing your idea is better...need to find reference for hanging cloth tho..but thank you

Something like this? :

I think this one is better :

I think you mean 'grammar' Seriously though, it's hard to judge the scale of this. To me it looks like the handle is only about 12-16 inches long, and would be very unbalanced, and hard to hold.

I think adding a pommel would help the unbalanced feel and from a practical standpoint would reduce the likelihood of it slipping out of the wielder's hand when swung. It could be just a little nub on the end or something a bit more fancy.

Jonathan Dick

I agree with Jack, it seems insanely top-heavy the way it is right now. I'd add a grip and let the cloth you already have fall over-top of that.

I think now the cloth on the top wont fall down ;D

Added the pommel just like u guys suggested, C&C would be great!
Don't think about adding the scroll on the handle but will see.

Update:

Steve Schulze

Pommel is looking good. Your fabric hanging and wrinkles is what's letting it down now. It might be worth hunting down some good reference. You'd actually be a lot closer if you painted the wrinkles out entirely.

@Jackablade: the hanging cloth on the pommel is just a placeholder for now. What are your toughts on the wrikles of the cloth on the head of the hammer?

Steve Schulze

I think it looked more natural in your previous versions. It depends what exactly it's made of, but you're not likely to get a lot of wrinkling there even with the rivets added.

the 'G' on your banners would look awesome engraved into the circular flat of the hammer

@Jackablade Will look into it further, but i think the wrinkles aren't that wrong.

@paintforge Yes i will include the G in the next update ;D

A little update:

- smoother wrinkles on the head
- did a little work on the pommel scroll, still needs work
- added the G
