Description
...of a different kind. Hey, what were you expecting? Another one of those chainsaw swords?
It's another idea I had. Since theres a contest going on at Weaponry-Guild, i decided to draw it.
I wasn't sure which design to go with - blades for chains, chains for blades or chains with blades. I do like the bottom one the most, though.
Oh, and I decided to add this one to Vexel, since some of the color fills where made with vectors, but then converted to raster, for applying additional effects.

As seen on Weaponry-Guild.
It was used in the first contest I participated in there, and it managed to get 2nd place!

Didn't think anyone else had the idea of a chain sword!

Probably like nunchucks/flails - effective, but only if the user is REALLY good with them, otherwise they would cause more harm to themselves!
Thanks!

Woo! Finally found someone who actually thought this too xD
There's just not enough of this type around

No, I don't believe it is. Just some bevel/emboss and gradients to get the effect.

you mean u vexeled it so it has both 2d and 3d info?

Well, sort of. I did the color fill with vector, but some of it was converted to raster to add the "3D" to it, such as with the chain links and gaurds, though the handles stayed vector.

I heard of the legendary 2.5D programs, that used pixols? Vexels? forgot what they were called, each pixel has a data of color and depth, so somehow a picture had both 3D shape and 2d color quality. Is that what you are using?

Hm, I didn't think of that. Sounds like a good idea, especially for the Chains for Blades one.
Thanks for commenting!

sort of a splice between a flail and a sword, very nice.
