I am still tweaking the colors, the actual sword has Brass/bronze details on the Pommel and the guard. Tony Swatton, a guy I know here in Los Angeles, has one & I have been able to look at it very closely,Amazing detail, I wish I could afford one but that's an expensive hobby (Prop Sword Collecting), although I do have a replica of the original Ivory handle Sword from Highlander, maybe I will model that next?

It is indeed an expensive hobby. You can find relatively inexpensive Conan-style swords (like the one from Museum Replicas), but they aren't a good match. At the other end of the spectrum, you've got limited-edition masterworks (like the stuff from Albion Armorers), perfect replicas that cost upwards of $10000.
I have no movie replicas myself, but have "collected" quite a few generic swords over the years.
