first pass on the concept. It needs a little more love, but i think i like the direction.

Naaaaaace!

a little more work. thoughts:
crow - needs feathers, dammit.
temple - more culture/religious based design work

problem: don't want to push to far towards core style.

trying to find that happy medium between too much and not enough. me-thinks number 2 perhaps.

very cool concept, I like the second one as well except I think the feathers on both sides of the handle is more interesting. Can't wait to see more.

thanks revan. i've pretty much settled on #1 without the babushka head scarf, but with the cooler colors on the straps from #3. i'll hopefully be able to get started on the model tonight. see how much i can get done between work and school before GDC.

Think the first one of those 3 looks better. More complete.

Do like! Respect for going with crow temple, the feathers will be a nice switch-up compared to most of the other weapons being designed. Is the main skull going to be metal and will the bottom of the skull be a cutting edge?

Nice job. I dig the flow of the feathers on the first one. Follows the contour of the crows natural placement of feathers and compliments the beard.

thanks all for the feedback.

Neongoat: the plan is for the skull to indeed be metal. i had thought about making the whole beak work as a cutting edge, but i suspect that narrowing it enough for that to make sense might look a little awkward. we shall see. failing that, though, i'll treat it more like a pick-axe with the cutting edge below it.

zeroslave: that first setup of feathers is growing on me the more feedback i get.

step one: scuplt crow head
step two:
step three: profit
