Yeah, tomahawk blades are more triangular. They're also (traditionally) made of stone.

hmmm i thnik we should rename tomahawk to hand axe or throwing axe... tomahawks are very endian oriented and have a very definite look... that one looks nice, a bit slender on the blade though... id go for a more suited throwing form... balanced and maybe a bit curved.

Btwn... i'll try another claws version from the rear as fmunoz suggested

Currently tomahack is used as ranged weapon por dwarven lord, the name pick seems a bit errr extrange to me.. I wanted to change it but never did.
MAybe use hatchet instead tomahawk.

Most dwarven axes I've ever seen look huge, chunky and finely ingrained with runes and such things, a bit like this funny looking figurine. Dwarves are immensely strong and so could easily through a larger axe than a tomahawk.

Renamed to hatchet in the CVS

The axe...

methinks · Post by **methinks** » January 17th, 2004, 2:18 pm

Nice.Make handle a bit longer and if possible metal a bit more contrasty

O.k. I will try try to correct this a bit... meanwhile my first try at Darts... NOTE they are not like playing darts but more based on medieval ninja/asasin like darts (small throwing blades... ) though with a more fantasy touch (colors and so...) Comments appreciated

A mod from the original sword to generate the banesword

Hey Slainte, that sword looks awesome. Feel free to edit any of my weapon pics if you have any ideas to improve them guys.

Slainte, I think that the axe and battleaxe need a little bit of highlight at the metal parts.

Slainte · Post by **Slainte** » January 17th, 2004, 7:46 pm

thnx svetac... yep, the axes need some more work... they are right in shape and all I think, but the heads lack some shading

BTW same apply to my images... any mods are wellcome... on that banesword... well I kept it a mod for proportions

reworked the handle and some parts on the blade changed in design... but mostly it is a color change other than the handle part.

IMHO you should make the bane sword darker and more sinister... after all its the wraiths' weapon (and soon specters too)

Just a side note: what I hate about most of icons is that their proportions are not lifelike

I mean longsword is short. Shortsword is like knife

Anyway, nice job, I would make darts more lifelike, so less saturated colours if any. Do you have some nice references for such darts?

this is my small contribution- you probably will not like it, but it might make an OK placeholder.

and i think the darts need to have a sharp point, or blade, or whatever, They look, to me, like medicine capsules.

mm yeah... the darts look like magic markers.

turin... change the background to the background used in all the others, then it would be fine. Maybe remove the eyes too, after all its Fangs not Gaze... hey thats an idea... do any units have a Gaze attack?
