Fire Emblem - Custom Weapon Icon Tutorial Pt. 2

Welcome to Part 2 of the tutorial for custom weapon icons in the Fire Emblem (GBA) style of spriting. This video tutorial goes hand-in-hand with my written tutorial, located on Serenes Forest. A link can be found to the tutorial in the first post of the following thread:
http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=19840

In this portion of the tutorial, I'll explain how I go about making an icon, completely from scratch (using a reference picture in this case, though the same methodology applies for free drawing from scratch).Today's exercise is still Ridley Silverlake's Blaze Axe from Radiata Stories (PS2).

Part 2 covers the continuation of the icon's outline and finishes the sprite up by shading the icon. The final product has some issues with it, but it has been cleaned up and can be found in the written tutorial in Chapter 2 (the section about this icon).
