There is something incredibly sexy about this. Something about the fusion of textures, symbolism and mystery.

From hardened steal, to skin/flesh, to the airy/silky flow of the fabric.

The masculine symbolism behind the pointed blade combined with the female body and curves.

Then the fact that everything is equally revealing but also shrouded in mystery.

Also the contrast between light, dark and shiny bright.

This is incredible. I love it. Welll done.

​

Also, that is a huge sword. - someone will probably make a hoke about this. -_-

Nice sword.

For a sword this length I would recommend a bigger cross guard, a slightly longer handle, and maybe a second small (cross) guard a bit higher up on the blade. (Google Zweihander/ montante)

Lol, no. All of my art most definitely is not just of myself. Self portraits have been around for pretty much as long as art has existed though.

He didn’t, the positive for the mold was 3D printed.

Great point I didn't even think about it like that but now that you mention it ...

idk much about the hallmarks of 3d printing, but I'm pleased with the end product.

I was iffy about how extraordinary the sculpt and texturing are, and then there's just a flat bottom with a hole on it to do the job...

Like, the sculpture is just a decoration sitting on the work surface instead of being incorporated into the opening mechanism...

But I don't mind at all if it was 3d printed from a digital sculpt.

But I get your point that op didn't mention anything about it in their process. I'm curious if you're right.

This is such an atmospheric photo. As others have said it would make an excellent album cover. I went through a lot of your photos and you’re definitely very talented and have an excellent eye for composition.

The way some of our governments of the world are running things, maybe we should go back to strange women lying in ponds distributing swords. How much worse can it get??

This is gorgeous!! I love the symmetry of the sword but the asymmetry of the pose!

Ay thank you!
