Darth Maul's Lightsaber - First 3D modeling/rendering project

Keynlan · May 2016

Everything was done in blender. Followed a very helpful Youtube tutorial to help me learn the tool. Just morphing a cylinder around was a great way for me to learn what I was doing. May go back one day to make the texture more realistic or maybe do something cooler with the background.

Rendered.

I wanted to cut grooves into the lightsaber, but had issues with the smoothness of the surrounding area. Still happy with end result.
