Description This is a sketch and its still under WIP.

"When the world is shrouded in darkness, a young warrior will come. 
After a long journey, the young warrior finally arrives. In his hand.....is a keyblade...."

(Final Fantasy 1 quote, altered to the context of Kingdom Hearts)

This keyblade is a revamped version of one of my old keyblade designs from a few years ago. This keyblade incorporates the idea of magic light crystals from the Final Fantasy series. This keyblade, like the Kingdom Key, is only wielded by a chosen keyblade wielder.

To those who don't know, the crystals in the Final Fantasy series are responsible in maintaining balance, peace and harmony in the world of Final Fantasy. If one or all of the crystals loses its light or is shattered, then darkness and chaos ensues. In the context of Kingdom Hearts, darkness is represented as the Heartless, Unversed and the Nightmare Dream Eaters.

Thanks. That is what I intended to do, make grander and powerful weapons. That is why I don't call myself ArtBlacksmith for nothing. Lol!

Great theme, great design...well done! :3
But I would suggest making the guard smaller; it looks kind of, for lack of a better word, fat.

Yeah, that's what I thought too. Unfortunately, I still don't know to make the guard thinner. -_-;
