Guild Wars 2

Thank you so much. I cannot stress how much I have been wanting more “realistically” shaped weapons. One of the details that I pay very close attention to (weirdly enough) are handle shapes. I love that you’ve made ergonomic grips for these weapons, and they don’t fall into the common trap that many artists fall into— which is making weapon handles perfectly cylindrical / circular.

(For those that don’t know— cylindrical grips on bladed weapons are undesirable because it makes it difficult for the wielder to align the edge perfectly with a target— making it harder to cut. Most will say it doesn’t matter because this is fantasy… but it’s still a pet-peeve of mine nonetheless)

All that aside, great job on these skins! Looking forward to more weapons that have a similar level of attention to detail.

I know, right? The greatsword is such a nice skin finally. Cylindrical things aside…
