I am really going to need some help with scaling a sword. I'm having a wood artisan produce it for me, but I need to provide the dimensions/measurements etc. It's the sword carried by Gregor "the mountain."
Since I am only two inches shy of the actor's actual size of 6'9" (I'm 6'7") the sword will be almost close to true scale or at least based on reference, but I can even do true 1:1 scale if possible...But, based on the image of him standing with Cersei, I can guestimate that the top of the pommel should stand up just above nipple level, which would put it roughly at 5'1" or 61" in total length (for my height)
Since I am having this produced in a professional manner, and the cost of having it done....I do not want to screw up the proportions.
Based on some reference, it's clear that him holding it with one hand, that it can have a little over 2 of his hands on the grip, compared to me, that is approximately 9 1/2" long from the bottom of the guard/T-bar to the top of the pommel. In any case though, i need to make it all proportional...so that can change.
Here's some reference...
If anyone is good at this or has software to aid in it..I would greatly appreciate it!!
Thanks...
