My custom sword design
I had this idea for a custom hilt design of a Hawk, let me know what you think of it.

Clever! There is a nice consistency to it. Might be a few sharp bits to snag on, but overall the parts turn away from the hand, which I tend to prefer. I assume it would be a pair of birds (i.e. head on each side)? There would be real possibilites for someone good (e.g. Mr Stevenson) to go wild on the feather detail.
Hi Geoff

I was more thinking Art Deco style to keep it simple and strait lined no details just the necessary lines to make out the shap of the hawk. I like that Art Deco look. And yes the Hawk design on each side.
Ohhh Id be soooooo tempted to rob that design....

Thats really really good..

Hi Eric
Yes, definitely Art Deco as it stands. There's a pair of green glass vases on my bedroom shelf that could be the model for the pommel. I guess I'm more into the 'naturalistic' (a confessed birdwatcher). I like the way you've 'wedged' the tail end to make the pommel nut less obtrusive. Neat.
