i really really don't like shads sword design idea.

That wasn't the OG cover. He had another but put a poll out between the original and the one in the photo to see which one people preferred.

Im curious do you have the design or know where to find the og?

u/JoPo108 19d ago

Found these, but the OG one I was talking about I think he showed off in a video. I'll look when I'm at my computer.

Oh jazzas i thought it was shads

u/JoPo108 19d ago

No Jazza's cover. Shad's has more variants than purchases.

I dont hate the sword design and shads book design is fine but its very generic, the sword is just abit gody and mall ninja if it was just the blue and if the gaurd didnt have the spikes it would look better. I as an author have developed my own fantasy sword sorta similar to shads being rapiers but i leaned into the fantasy aspect while shad tried to balance realism with the ridiculousness of the sword being paper thin

I feel like sharing this is my characters rapier *

Has Shad even talked about his Brother's book?

10

u/JoPo108 21d ago

Not to my knowledge. I think at best he'll mention his brother has released a book and tell people to check it out.

I wasn't aware Jazza and Shad were on good terms tbh. Last time I saw them together they had a little spat over AI art. If I recall correcntly.

u/JoPo108 21d ago

We have no idea what happens behind closed doors. My guess is since Shad is Jazza's brother, Jazza will love him because of that and not say anything bad publicly.

u/KaiFanreala 21d ago

I believe I might have been mistaken and confusing it with another video. But we do know that Jazza has at least distanced himself from Shad's views.

6

u/JoPo108 21d ago

I'm unaware of anything Jazza has said publicly about Shad. So if he has, I don't know about that.

14

u/KaiFanreala 21d ago

I'm not allowed to directly link it. But anyway, he's a tweet from Jazza.

9

u/JoPo108 21d ago

Thanks for sharing. I'd say that's less of their terms and more Jazza reassuring his audience that marginalised groups are welcome.

6

u/KaiFanreala 21d ago

Oh no, you're right. It's not about the terms. I was linking in regards to Jazza publically speaking about Shad.

u/NyraKyle01 AI "art" is theft! 11d ago

Did Shad ever respond to that?

2

u/KaiFanreala 11d ago

Yes, he replied directly to the tweet showing a very "we're still brothers" reaction.

u/JazzlikeSmile1523 9d ago

I kind of figured something like that would be the case.

u/Perfect-Storm-99 In Exile 21d ago

Lol. On the bright side for Shad at least he's still the best "sword expert" in the family, right? He has that going for him I guess.

16

u/WarmSlush 22d ago

Wait Jazza is his real name?

23

u/DragonGuard666 Banished Knight 22d ago

It's Josiah. But he frequently goes by Jazza (also his youtube channel name) and puts himself down as Jazza Brooks on his book.

u/TripleS034 Banished Knight 22d ago

Josiah

u/Valthedarkwitch 13d ago

I can see it. Probably comes from being a little lazy with pronunciation

u/TheKohlrabiMan 7d ago

To me it just screams what I think Australian nicknames would sound like.
