Description
This set was interesting to work with.At first i just wanted weapons that had skulls or bones as decorations but when i sat down and started the final sketches. I had decided to make the entire weapon out of bone or claws. some strings and clothes are used, but the point is, no metal.
eh hm, the following points are not neccessarily that of Anima studio, just my personal thoughts while creating these weapons. (god i had wanted to say something like this.
In concept these weapons are magically and/or chemically fortified so that with the right strength, they can cut or pierce armor.
Anyways..damn, this thing is gonna be long...but i feel like explaining them a bit, mostly cuz i spend time on them, hehe
Wings of the Plague: made from the skull of a large, Stork like bird. it sheds poison dusts.
Jaw of the beatle: made from a jaw bone of a large monster . this weapon has an Earth Elemental attribute.
Unicorn of Death: Made from two horns found on a unicorn type monster. The skull near the grip is of a different monster. It has death element attributes.
Fish of Shock: the pole is from a piece of whale bone, the spear head is a skull of the fish. they are really small on this, but on the right side of the spear, there s a few shells, connected by lightning. =]
Talon of the Mantis: Made from a talon found on the same monster as the "Jaw of the Beatle". The entire thing is carved out from the same talon, the little skull on it is just decoration, its not a real skull of any creature.
Hornet of Flames: Made from a rib bone of a fire breathing, dragon-type monster. The fire never goes out on that bow. The user would have to use a gauntlet made from the same bones, or he will get his hand burnt. I think i will design that gauntlet next time. hehe
whew. i wonder how many people will read this whole thing...

I'm just saying, anyone can get two bones, tie them together with rope... Tada, bone-chucks. But it takes masterful skill and lvl 99 artistry to explain to the masses how a sword made out of cloth can still cause harm.
Just think about it.

Awesome weapons.... too bad they aren't real. And yes, I did read the whole thing. It was interesting, I liked knowing the story behind each of the weapons as in what they're made of and such.

I wouldn't be suprised if these appear in a videogame someday.

Guh...fuh...juh. This is absolutely frighteningly crazy well done. The attention to detail is mind blowing. This is fantastic. I think my favorite would be the Jaw of the Beetle. It's very interesting how anotamically correct these seem even if the animals used might be fictional. I'm curious to know what element the Talon of the Mantis uses. I was thinking earth for the obvious reason that it was green, and also that it was from the same animal as the Jaw which had the earth elemental attribute.

Your weapons designs have always astounded me. Beautiful as always.
Now, I would love to see the critters that these came from. Would give us a better idea of the material origins of the weapons.
And you should really add your thoughts to pictures more often. Makes it seem a little more personal, Good work!

As with your previous armor/weapon posts, this is as astounding. I really appreciate the input as to the differing weapons as well, for it really opens up what you may of been thinking when you designed them from the start.
Each weapon is equally great, and the detail you've squeezed into each one is mind boggling. Great color use, texturing as well as overall design!

awesome. i read the whole thing lol
a thought on the gauntlet for the bow, how would a gauntlet of bone, unless made of really fine flates, move? perhaps the dragon's skin or something would be a better concept...? just a thought ^.^ i lov ethe unicorn of death, its crazy. i'd like to see these in scale with a character too, because its jsut a little tough to imagine, and some seem liek they should be huge [liek the unicorn seems liek it would be as tall as the weilder] where others seem liek they'd be a tad smaller, such as the talon of the mantis...
i can't wait to see your next series!
