Description

Well, ladies and gentlemen, here it is at last. The sword that Optimus Prime used in the fourth film (Age of Extinction) and the fifth film (The Last Knight), called "The Sword of Judgement". Now, even though I dislike the live-action Transformers movies, I will give credit where its due. They did come up with some original ideas, and they did come up with some interesting elements that were never before explored in the Transformers universe up until 2007 when the first live-action movie came out. And I like how the writers developed a writing system for the "Cybertronian language", which in my opinion is quite apt an fitting. Because you'd think that the Transformers would speak their own language before they eventually learned English (as well as other languages that are spoken around the world). The symbols that they use for the language always seemed interesting to me. And admittedly, all this material that the movies have given us can be used for future installments. So while the Transformers movies themselves leave so much to be desired, they have given us some good material to work with (although Transformers Prime did a much better job making use of some of those materials). So anyway, I always loved the design of this sword that Optimus used. It has a very unique and interesting design. And it certainly looks like the kind of weapon that would be used by a great warrior and leader. And that suits Optimus Prime perfectly because he is definitely those two things in one. Although this wasn't the first Cybertronian sword Optimus would use. That goes to the Star Saber in Transformers Prime, which was way more powerful. But anyway, I had a hard time drawing this sword because of its complex design. Now admittedly, this is not a perfect representation of the sword, as some details are off. The blade has a very complex design, and I couldn't get all the details to be 100% accurate. But I did my best to capture the alikeness of the blade. But I think the most difficulty I had was with the Cybertronian inscriptions on the blade of the sword. I couldn't capture each symbol and make it exact. But I did the best I could. And for the record, I had to see a key chain to capture the symbols. So this is not movie-accurate. So anyway, here it is; the Sword of Judgement.
