Description

Since the in-game model/art and Hyrule Historia artwork varied a little, I decided to fuse elements from all of them for this. It saves me from having to make multiple variations like with the swords from the first Legend of Zelda. :XD:

Okay, I freaking love this. The only, small, even nitpicky, yet still nagging problem that I have with this design, & even the original Phantom Sword's design in the game, was & still is, the fact that the hourglass in the handguard isn't the ACTUAL Phantom Hourglass. Rather, it's just an hourglass-shaped gem thing that seems meant to represent the Phantom Hourglass.

I always thought that it'd be such a cool little extra bit of detail if the handguard had the Phantom Hourglass as part of it. Now, I also think it'd be amazing if the handguard had a clockwork mechanism built into it attached to the Hourglass, turning it into 1 of those automatically rotating ones. Of course, it'd be powered by magic, so it'd be more like thaumaturgy, but I still think it'd be really cool.

… Am I putting too much thought into this?
