Description

I did a few weapon designs earlier in the term; a shotel and an axe. **The axe wouldn't be much use in a fight, its design is more ceremonial**
The first time I saw a shotel was in the first Dark Souls game, wielded by the infamous Lautrec. I thought the shape was very cool and looked them up; they were originally conceived in Ancient Ethiopia, where warriors used the curved blades to reach behind enemy shields and cut open bellies. For the axe I tried to give it a ceremonial and decorative feel - and as some have pointed out- it wouldnt be much use in a fight.
Anyway I designed these for some characters that I am still touching up and will post later on!
