I don't normally draw weapons so this was a pretty unique challenge.

Took a brief #HardSurface detour from my low poly projects. Proudly presenting 'Harbinger of Desolation', a menacing spiked mace.

Finished the sword handle. Super proud of the way this one turned out. Inlay of sodalite, aventurine, and turquoise.

This thing really shines when you turn it in light. I have a video, but it's a touch to large to share here.

Continued progress on this. Most of the stone inlay of sodalite and aventurine is in place. Still need to add some fill-in stones and fill that infinity symbol.

Aventurine is a tough stone to sand/grind. Had to break out the Dremel.

While I ponder the best way to finish my ring experiments, I took a break to do something different. My wife recently got a Chinese broad sword. I'm going to do a stone inlay in the handle. Swipe to see a multi-shot detail photo.
