Awesome, I absolutely love Brisingr and Arvindor's guard is incredible. You can really see the character of each Rider in these. Great job.

Breathtaking.

Thanks
Yep, Undbitr was Brom's sword before he last it during the Fall.
Arvindr was just a name of a sword Oromis mentioned when Eragon was looking for a new weapon, but it was kept too far away for him to see it, and no more specifics were given either.

OH! Thanks.
Your art is great, by the way. No one ever really takes the time to capture the weapons; no one really realizes how beautiful a weapon can be, either. I'm glad you did
-yours

heh, where did the other blue, and the green and purple one come from?
π: 0 β©: 1
The light blue is Undbitr, Brom's sword. Its known to be blue, but a different colour from Eragon's, so I made it lighter to be able to distinguish between them. Green is Tamerlein, which is seen briefly in Brisingr (the book) before Brisingr (the sword) was made... currently owned by Lord Fiolr. Purple is Arvindr, the other sword mentioned that is still owned by the elves, but didn't have any description.. So I just made it up thinking purple was a cool colour and it had a rooty nature look on the hilt for an elvish rider.

Um, can't remember where exactly, it was just a discussion thread, maybe search Arvindr on the forum and you'll find something

...wasn't 'Brisingr' a plain sword, as far as not having a coloured blade?
π: 0 β©: 3
NOOOOO!!!!!!!
just had to say that sorry :/
π: 0 β©: 1
haha, understandable mate.
I'd rather learn from a mistake than be allowed to live in ignorance

no it was different hues of blues. Take a gander at the discription of the blade again.
π: 0 β©: 2
By golly i have made a tit of myself. Sorry about that, you're right. I might dig up my copy of the book, find the passage and discover how i made this mistake. Thanks

No problem, and if Rhonon-elda saw you call her swords plain, she'd whoop you into the previous century. No way in hell are riders blades plain...especially Brisingr, it catches on fire for crimeny sakes!
π: 0 β©: 1
As i recall she was as shocked as any other to see that particular part. Though I wonder if it's not due to Eragon's hands being those that forged it, and his mouth the one to sing it, his magic that which wove it. If it is because of that (as that particular trait of the sword was only activated by eragon), then perhaps if other riders forged their own blades, they might share similar properties, unique to both sword, rider and dragon. Or perhaps I ramble...

well, Rhonon also said its poossible Brisingr is the swords true name, but thats a possibility. Well I guess thats another thing for book four.

Sorry, I misinterpreted the initial question... in so far as it all being quite plain aside from the coloured blade... The blades themselves are indeed all coloured and have a shifting quality of hues yes, which I did try and include if you look closely at the blades

*ahem* Well yes... but I did my initial rough ups looking at some of the 'official' artwork, which was a bit of a mistake, but I kind of ran with the style...
π: 0 β©: 1
you're actually right. Brisingr is blue.
