how about this one?

Couldn't color it, so you'll miss the details, like de iron edge, or the gems encrusted below the skull. Still, I liked it! Ah, and I didn't draw a whole maple, just its leaves. I thought it looked better. Again, it's not very intuitive because of the whole black and white thing.

Well, let me get the description of a Adamantine Scepter I got in one of my fortress.

"This is a Raw Adamantine Scepter. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled  with bands of Andesite, Honet Yellow Beryl, Emerald and Wax opal. This object is adorned with hanging rings of tentacle demon bone and menaces with spikes of Emerald. On the item is an image of a cloud in Raw adamantine.
On the item is an image of Utes Menacedtrusted the demon in tentacle demon bone. Utes Menacedtrusted is striking a menacing pose. The artwork relates to the release of the demon Utes Menacedtrusted by careless miners in the deepest recesses of Tubechambers in the midspring of 228.
On the item is a image of a lizard in cave spider silk."

Btw, this is THE coolest artifact I ever got. It was back in 40d and right after I breached -fun- the mason went nuts and started picking the raw adamantine i dumped next to his shop (I dind't planned that).  It was named "Egenazon Osreshlikot, Gifteddepress the Mortified Ink", and is worth 783.600 dwarf bucks.

zephyr_hound, I couldn't have requested a better image of my fort's second most valuable artifact (the most valuable is an adamantine pick valued at over 1.1 million dorfbucks I'd missed).

And Elderont, even black and white that's an excellent bone axe. Definitely makes me rethink how awesome bone artifacts can be.

Rarra, so many small details! But hell, your damned fine axe drawing inspired me. I can't do free-hand very well, so you'll have to do with a sprite. :P



Freud was right.

But, in the spirit of keeping this excellent thread alive...

I'm interested in seeing how one would make a floodgate out of dog bone, which somehow refers to two other artifacts, one of which coming from a previous fort in the same world!

Where's the picture of that? That name just sounds like it's a horribly awesome weapon of killmazing.

ETA: for the record, I know the really isn't an artifact per se, but I was so amused by the goblin leader of te dwarves I couldn't resist.  The only other option was a crappy phyllite amulet that menaced with spikes of same.

I'm much better with paper and pencil, but this thread inspired me to drag my old Wacom out of hiding and get my hands creaking again.  It's a bit sketchy, but I think it captures the spirit of the thing.

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
