Azeroth Armory - Forging Ashbringer

That's a lot of forging being done.

Haha, even though he made the handle longer, it's still too short to be held with two hands. Blizzard, take note.

Maybe it's designed for Donald Trump.

Out of the weapons he has made so far this is the weakest one, the blade is way short if you look at all the images made of it you will see that if it stands on point it will almost reach should length, this one is like a gnomes version of it, there is a reason we don't have gnome paladins.

I really love what hes doing, but making Ashbringer in a fking Gnomeversion was really kind of meeeeeh.
Also it looks great, but should be much bigger, I know, would be really tough to swing, but jeah, meeeh :<

The most annoying thing was that Barbarian at the end, swinging this holy sword -.-

Looked too short, Was alright I guess though.

He's made Cloud's buster swords before, Now THAT was tough to swing.

The last part really is just a show for the simple-minded. Last time it was a dude using the handle to smash something with his Warglaive, and then used it backwards.

Can't be any worse than their Captain America shield.

He did the exact thing i would do if i had one... kill a Gnome!

no disk = not ashbringer imo.
could easily have done it with a piece of perspex or plastic with the disk inside, not like the weapon is going to be used in real combat, more likely will be on display in Blizz HQ

Would love to see Thunderfury made

jeah maybe Blizz doesnt gave enough money to invest I think its just sad for the Ashbringer. Great sword, deserved more size :<

Hard to hate on the guy's work, but leaving out the iconic holy symbol because it's "not practical" strips the sword of part of its iconic luster.

He used the handle of the DoomHammer which does not make much sense it's true.

Also why not the original Ashbringer design? I skipped a good portion of the video, but I dont see why they made the new stylized design other than "it doesnt have a floating disc we cannot replicate"

But yea, way too short for a warcraft 2h, almost looked like a 1h sword for a gnome.

I love the work, but why not use the classic model?

I have to say that in the past I have really liked this show.

Because (save the warcraft items) he has actually tried to make FUNCTIONAL weaponry out of fantasy and video game concept.

(1) These are clearly rushed
(2) They look like high quality props (NOT functional weapons)
(3) I really hate what they "test" the weapons out on... seriously you could use a bunch of bananas, sausage links, dildos, live children, or bare hands to break champagne flutes filled with glitter

My guess, Blizz wanted them to do this version. They should do more then just weapons. Would loving to see how they forge some T sets

Because that model is the most badass and sexy version of Ashbringer out there. Thats subjective obviously but its just so cool.

I loved it honestly. I think this is one of their best in terms of WoW stuff.

Not saying i could do better, but imo it looked like a cheap plastic toy at the end...

I like how they sliced the gnome
