Hello Geoegress,

I most certainly can post! I am looking for the largest historical version of the Zweihander sword, the full 6' version (4.5' of Flamberge blade, 1.5' of handle and Spetum blades).

What ive got for images is, 3 screenshots from the movie Excalibur to give an example of my desired weapon's proportions:

In this pic you can see two men at the battlements, the Duke, standing on our left, is holding what I would consider to be a Bastard Sword or a Two-Handed Broad Sword, of 5' length. Next to him on our right, the older knight, is holding the 6' Zweihander

In the next pic I post you can see at our right side of screen the full length of the sword when carried by the 6'4" tall knight

and finally, ill post the 2 money shots, I found a beautiful closeup of a zweihander with an awesome hilt and quillions, and a sweet flamberge blade as in the movie weapon. The pic "zweihander sword.jpg" is the original pic, in the pic "zweihander-sword.jpg" (note the hyphen in the filename) ive painted out the other sword and the dagger and most of the shadow behind the desired sword.

I hope this is sufficient detail (as opposed to gross-overkill) to give prop artists an idea what im hoping for.

Thank you to anyone that has the time to look over this request :) If the scope of this request is beyond what most artists prefer to do for free, I most certainly and completely respect and understand and ask to please give me an idea what a retail commission of this nature would entail.

Thanks again,

Logan
