IMO none of the winning entries were all that great. But, I guess it'll be fine since the honorable mentions will be in as well.

AH! I want that voodoo doll thing for my Nec. The rest...meh...but that shield...WOAH! hot stuff...

The doll reminds me too much of Lulu from FFIX.

I wouldn't be surprised if the curvy blade weapon is for the assassin.

I wish anet would honor like the winners by giving them a perfect 15% always req 7 version of the weapon they designed u know so the people who designed the winning entries wouldnt be like "oh great everyoen has _a perfect version of the weapon i designed_ but me, wow that sucks"

Well just some food for thoguht for the winners.

Because they are relevant. Sheilds and off-hands are normally used in conjunction with offensive items.

Anyway...

I don't like any of the winners. They look generic execpt the bow, it looks different but it doesn't do anything for me. Hell, the swords on the first two pages on this thread should have been included.

BUT they did say that a modest number of honorable mentions were to be included. Maybe I'll like one of them.

I think that the weapon designs were really creative and worth the recognition. THe Axe, hammer, bow and shield are really the cream of the crop though if you ask me.

Very nice ideas. Cant wait to see the honorable mentions

ShazBo · Feb 03, 2006, 08:13 AM // 08:13

I really like the straw (scarecrow) voodoo doll. I can wait til I get that for my idol... lol

Makkert · Feb 03, 2006, 08:14 AM // 08:14

Congratulations to all winners and honorable mentions.
It's clear you put a lot of work in it!

My personal favo's: the hammer and the shield.

ohsonofa · Feb 03, 2006, 08:22 AM // 08:22

Dont know if this has been mentioned or not but will those weapons be green items? Im hoping they wont be, personally I like hunting for Gold items.

Ninjutsu Honor Code · Feb 03, 2006, 08:26 AM // 08:26

The shield is the most impressive ive sen so far

Rilder · Feb 03, 2006, 08:29 AM // 08:29

Dude, that bow looks AWESOME, it looks , just awesome, it looks like i could jump off a clif with it and float to the bottom!!

-Loki- · Feb 03, 2006, 09:17 AM // 09:17

The bow and the shield are the clear standouts of even the winners. They are awesome.

yea but it's not like it would affect game balance any and I doubt they would sell the perfect representation of the very item they designed

i tend to agree with that idea...unless someone can come up with a reason why it would be bad for the GW community

is it just me or does that bow look like the Korean/Japan coke item thingy... for the shield i wish the wings were inside the bounderies of the shield instead of sticking out...looks > form/real function wins again in fantasy

but there's no need to flame me about this being a game...I get it...it doesn't have to, just a personal peve...that's all I'm saying

The Korean and Japanese bows were twinned scorpion tails. The Taiwanese bow had feathered wings. Similar, not not really.

Mustache Mayhem · Feb 03, 2006, 11:38 AM // 11:38

lol just looked at the entries.. they all put mine to shame

Urias Skult · Feb 03, 2006, 12:08 PM // 12:08

I love the Hammer. The style of the art is sort of bland but the design in-itself is very clever. I also like the shield, but as for the rest, I hate to sound bigheaded but I preferred my own designs over them.

thirtypercent · Feb 03, 2006, 01:16 PM // 13:16

i like all except the kris, the shield and the staff. axe and hammer are best imo.
