Orc Sword and Shield

Mime

I've started work on a couple of props to round out my portfolio.
Iv'e already finished working on the sword, and i'm now texturing the shield.

I've used the technique i mention in my MODO quick tip you can find: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Db9Ly



The initial texturing pass:

Both the sword and the shield are based on the concept by RockheartStudio : https://www.artstation.com/rockheartstudios

As for the shield i am in the process of finishing up the texture.
Here are some progress shots.
Just like with the sword i used the hard edges to OpenSubdiv technique. 

The Zbrush sculpt


Using the lowpoly i started with i made a few adjustments and baked it down in Substance Painter.

The initial texturing pass

This is where i'm at now.

I still have a few things to tweak, but overall i think i'm close to finishing it up and will set up the lighting and presentation shots in Marmoset.
Feedback is greatly appreciated as always!

Hey @Mime, I'm a big fan of that wood style on the shield and the wraps on the sword are looking fantastic! Textures really look like they're coming along nicely, and I think the splash of yellow paint on the shield really helps the prop pop out further. Great work, man! Can't wait to see the final shots.

Mime

Thanks @dGreenberg.
Worked some more on the textures and i think i'm gonna call it done. Next i need to do some presentation shots.

Looks real nice. I like the "grungy" feel both of them have, there are few straight edges and lots of dents and scratches. Feels very cobbled together which fits an Orc

Mime

Aaaand done! I might do a few shots with the sword and shield this weekend if i have some spare time.

Oh man I just saw your post on Reddit, and I think I saw your sword on 10K on Facebook? I think I spend too much time on the internet haha

Sick work.

I've already said this to you, but those materials read very well - wood especially, looks like you could run your hand along it and would feel very wood-like nice job
