Description
I was looking at photos of swords (as you do) to go with this image and came across a site selling replicas of 'Excalibur' - so had a go at modelling it... and here's the result:)
cloak by Goblin Design; Helmet and Paldrons from Dark Ages (I think)
thanks for coming!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by devine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I'm your king.
Dennis: Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Arthur: Be quiet!
Dennis: You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!
Arthur: Shut up!
Dennis: If I went 'round sayin' I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!.

Absolutely stunning lighting! Great work on bringing out the detail of the sword. And you can never go wrong when you quote Monty Python! (pitty someone beat me to the being oppressed joke) Alright, everyone up for a rousing chourus of "We're Knights of the Round Table!"

Awesome scene! Great way to display the detail on the sword! The lighting and background bring to mind the beginning of the movie Excalibur... The Dark Ages, the land was divided and without a king. Out of those lost centuries rose a legend. Of the sorcerer Merlin. Of the coming of a king. Of the Sword of Power.... EXCALIBUR!
