I have been playing with the sword design as it might be model of the month for April.
That way people get to see the chrome balloons.

Then again it might not.

I made this one while out working the other day.

This one was made from an idea from Thelma.
Plus Thelma made the shield.

Another sword idea, anyone might get the impression that
the model of the month for April is going to be a sword.

Well you might be right.................but which one?

Another variation for a sword. It started with two balloons but was looking for quick and easy line work. Managed
with Red 260 but the joint from sword to handle was not really strong enough. Plus too many pinch twists.

So with the chrome balloons being a little longer this worked out pretty good and I think quick for the real world and
the joint holds up well. I'd go with the one pinch twist as on the Gold chrome at the back of the sword.
