Moth's Dream - Spectre weapon (Dota 2)

Marcus_Aseth

Hi guys,I finally decided to give it a shot to the Dota 2 Workshop
I'm starting with a weapon for spectre,problem is I am not really confident in my skills so I keep second guessing what am I doing and I can't make up my mind if this things fits spectre or not or if it would look cool in game :poly122: ...so I would like if you guys could lend me your eyes and opinions

Below the concept I did yesterday,today I'm starting with the base mesh (3dsmax) before going into Zbrush

Suba

Pretty good so far. Spheres looks way too high though.

Marcus_Aseth

Thx Suba,don't worry about that sphere,is just a basemesh for baking purpose,so doesn't really matter on the final resoult

I kept working a bit the basemesh on 3dsmax,it is stilly pretty rough,missing the top parts and a lot of support edges so is ok if it looks weird in some places for now




in case someone is curious about the workflow I'm using,I let Camtasia record a bit of my modeling workflow,video below

The basemesh is done,only some ngon to fix and edgeloop that need to be closed,then I continue inside Zbrush

finished up the handle and did the low poly,Lod0 should be under 500 tris so it's fine,but lod1 under 300...and that's it's just impossible to do I think
