There is no mention of serrations, and there are barbs on multiple sides of the blade:
The number of barbs is not specified, though there must be at least two in total if they are on multiple sides.

Ah, I see. TBH, when I see Barbed Broadsword, I instinctively think of something like the Giant Buster from Soul Calibur IV. I guess thatās not the case seeing as there are Barbs on at least two sides. Thanks for the clarification.
decided to try and do a contest compliant (yes I realize the rule only applies to art) BBsword.

It is ā¦ quite large. If you do end up using it, I would definitely suggest extending the hilt below the hand, as it looks a bit strange the way sheās holding it now.

Tuyetās eye colour should be restricted to Orange/yellow, since those are the eye colours of Toa/Matoran of Water.

Eye colors are heavily inconsistent between 2001-03 and 2004-onward. Blue for ice is practically the only consistent rule and even that was abandoned by 2006. I sort of like that idea in some cases, such as if the character is from a given year, but Tuyet made her first appearance in 2007.

I would assume that only if the people in this website demonstrated theyāre not pedantic/restrictive/stupid enough to unironically push for it.
And the opposite has been demonstrated.

I built a new BB the other day. but after a day, Iām become looking forward to the āart contestā to make it more beautiful. 
(To begin with, the previous Canon Arts had some very cool arrangements in the details, and they were all great.)
So, Iād like to use this as a ābase modelā and look forward to the future! 
(Well, there is a still time. and I have to win the MOC-Contest firstā¦ 
)

So let me get this straight, is there going to be some mandate on what type of barbs are on Tuyetās sword? I havenāt really been following the discussion much about this
There are already some MOCs for Lariska contest, and they are all fantastic.
I think the contest will be the great battle!

Currently, there is a mandate that the artwork must feature a sword with barbs facing towards the hilt.

But if the moc features a sword with downward facing barbs that design may be locked in place via a consent system like the Hagah otherwise they would just be default placeholders
