Next project--westernized katana-like-object based on Tam's Heron Mark Sword from WOT

Looks great!

Get that Dremel up and running like a banshee, get the right bits for it, and don't hesitate to remove metal slowly but decisively on the guard....you can make it look awesome!

Got it cut in pretty deep and polished up a bit more. I think I'm pretty happy so far.

Now that I know you are doing this as stock removal your work is even more impressive. It's a ton of work. Good job on the guard too. (When you get your forge you can start to play around with hamons. Ten years in the knifemaking biz, and I finally got an awesome hamon).

I like this one a lot!

P.S. The heron is uber cool.
