Here is a picture of the sword Caledfwlch (it shouldn't be hard to figure out what the more common name of this sword is, for anyone who wants to know):

Epic, I might make my own fiction thing, I would call it Acalan or something.      Pronounced A-k-a-l-a-n

Go for it, I would really like to see what you come up with :).

Thanks but I don't think I could write something as good as you  :)

Yutyrannus

Keep practicing to write, my books weren't that good originally either but I've been working on them for a long time.

Here is the updated (and final) design for Caledfwlch. I added in the scabbard as well:

I recently started re-writing the book. The new version is darker and details Merlin's early life more, including his many experiences with dragons, before it gets to the bit with Arthur. It also includes King Vortigern's hatred of magic and hunt for dragons (which causes an enraged fire-drake to attack an outlying village). I may post a preview sometime in the future.

Here is the re-drawn White Dragon. I found out that the White Dragon is actually a wyvern, rather than a dragon so I had to re-draw it. Anyway, here it is:


Feedback would be appreciated.

Interesting... well lately, most of the movies we've watched are all fantasies - Edge of Tomorrow, Winter's Tale, X-men, I-Frankenstein etc.

Is your work somehow influenced by Game of Thrones?  We also watch this.
Keep The Magic Alive and Kicking! :-)


Yutyrannus

No, I was no influenced by Game of Thrones. I've seen the show (which I'm not crazy about) and I've seen the dragons, which are awesome, but I was more inspired by Eragon in the design of the dragon. Unless you're talking about the book in general, which wasn't really inspired by anything. I just like the Arthurian Legends and I wanted to write about them in more depth.

I've been writing a bit more lately (I finally got out of a writer's block with this book), and I also came across this soundtrack from the 1998 movie Merlin.

I think the music from 1:51 to 2:16 in this is perfect for my book. Hopefully the same music can be used if a movie of this is ever made (which would be quite cool).
