Maces are home-made affairs, too.  I don't have any examples, but I've made a

Check out Anthony Sava's page:

His Warhammer and Mace MOCs are dead-on; they are elegantly simple, and you

weapons. =] He also has a morning star, but did not shorten the chain.

Yeah, that was the mace I was refering to.  The gear results in a great
flanged mace.

I'd call the other a maul rather than a warhammer which generally look more

in medieval weaponry was that there was no standard).  English longbowmen
would plant their defensive stakes with mauls, and take a whack at the odd
french knight who got too close.

Anyway, both well-done MOC weaponry.
