Lovely work here everyone, and @Zenoart, were do you find that kind of reference material you use to make a piece like that? Its awesome!
and here is my contribution to waywo, it is a spit paint I did today. Tried out a new approach of doing smaller thumbnails, 5 of them on this particular piece. I were thinking of a theme, bug thing with interesting shapes. And from those thumbnails I got these shapes that became this little rascal.
Nuclear Angel: the link to the ref is under the image (in this case deviantart), I usually use stock images from any source I can find, I also take my own pictures. There's nothing more fun to me than painting from ref
Amazing job as usual everyone, it's annoying how talented you all are.
Anyway, calling it a day on this pub I've been working on, need to start something fresh... A little more can be found on my folio.
Hey there great work on the Hp and the textures are looking pretty nice as well. I think you did a great job of translating the concept piece as well. one crit here tho, your lowpoly count really needs to come down a bit. Even if its an acceptable count for a FPS weapon, there are a lot of edges here that are kind of redundant or just defining too much silhouette in areas where it isnt really gnecessary. good example of this would be at the top of the pommel where you have the inner bevel of the round detail modeled out. nobody would notice if that was flat from the outer edge to the inner cylinder, same with the bevels on the cylindrical detail in the center of where the blade is attached. I crit because you have done a great job and you could save in some areas that would make your work just a little bit more attractive professionally

Wow man, that thing is looking great. I've been experimenting with the workflow example you shared last week.
Finishing up a piece for my portfolio, it's a Crysis 2 weapon that melts you inside of your armor. C&C highly appreciated!
