Axe Belt loop and money pouch

Here's the belt loop and an extra shot with the axe to show that it actually works.
















Here's a money pouch that I threw together. I hope to make some of these with a more suitable material in the future.

Backstory - Factions and countries

Malanor - (This is where the film is set, Imperius is about a third of the way up from the bottom border.) Malanor used to be part of Sychenia but it was taken over by invaders from the north. Malanor is at war with Sychenia and Edamos.

Sychenia - This is the land where Sankami gets most of his mercenaries from. The Sychenians have been at war for many years since the Malanorians invaded their shores and therefore the Malanorians are a hated people in this country.

Edamos - This is Sankami's homeland. Edamos is expanding its borders and has been grinding away at Malanor for some years. The Edamosians are also at war with the Krynidosians, although Edamos has the biggest army of all of the factions.

Droskon- Droskon is allied with Edamos.

Another Draft of Script Finished

I've been through the script again and its really starting to come together. A new scene has been added in at the end and the whole plot is starting to make a lot more sense. I get really enthusiastic when working on this script and I cant wait to start filming some of this. Sorry to dissapoint, but there are no pictures in this update, but expect to see a lot after a few weeks, since I'm on holiday and usually find time to draw lots of concept art and maybe I'll even start storyboarding.

I'll also add that the project remains un-named at the moment, so that is another thing on my 'to do list.'

Props, and a first look at costumes

The picture shows three finished props. There's not much to say about them that the picture cant describe itself, but I think they all turned out nicely.






Kynaigos' costume. It also includes trousers and boots which aren't pictured.
