How did you make a cut out for this? Did you just find a good image and scale it up to Elucidator's specs?

Ok... Well, I'll just bullet point the stuff. Here's a link to maybe help you keep up with all the points: [link]
-First, I think the handle length is a bit long, though it's possible that that's just due to the angle of the picture, so I'm not really sure
-Next is that bolt looking round bit on the hilt. First, I don't think that that part is supposed to pop out, but that's not the main problem. The main problem is that the pattern is supposed to be four inward facing triangles (you made a cross)
-Next is the pommel. I believe the pommel is supposed to be short and black
-Next is the sides for the hilt. The left and right ends are slightly more square-ish than your rounded edges.
-Next is a detail that most people miss. The cross at the top of the sword is actually slightly longer than it is wide.
And that is pretty much it. Even though there's all this small stuff, this is still one of the closest copies of Elucidator I've seen on dA so far. Keep up the good work P:

thnx my friend, I really appreciate the feedback. And glad u noticed it, that means I did sth good, im aware of all those details, yes, I changed... Well... I made the sword with my own design, the hilt, I fdidnt like the squarish style it had, so I changed It, the cross in hilt, it was an accident, but I decided to leave it, cuz, to my eyes looked better. The cross on top, I didn't had a good reference, so that's what I ended up with. Agree on the pommel colors, those are darker, a mistake I need to look it too, along with the shape of it. Thanx man! Appreciate the feed.
