Fantasy Sword Design

Since I have the time now (sort of), I want to stretch my design muscles–make something purely for fun. Designing, like writing, is therapeutic. I can get in the zone and won’t come up for air until I’m so tired I can’t see straight. I’ll be working with the fantasy classics– swords, wings and dragons–pulling pieces from different images to create something new. Here’s what I’ve done so far.

Meet Nyda Hal— the Shadow Trapper. It summons the black dragon who controls darkness and death. The blade can vanquish demons and open the door to the underworld.

I pulled inspiration from Pinterest- collecting fantasy sword artwork onto a board.



If you had a fantasy sword, what would be its name and ability?
