edit: Just finished this one up! Thread is pretty small since I didn't really document much of anything in the early stages.
here's a link to the artstation page

Hey there everyone,
I've been slowly picking away at this take on the Blood Berry beam saber from No More Heroes, and I think I'm just about finished with it, but I wanted to put some feelers out there first. I plan on going in and painting in some more roughness variation, making the decals look more worn (
like the one being covered up on the back), etc. I was initially going to make the beam in UE to learn a little bit about Niagara, but my thinking now is that I'll be pushing out this project even further, when I should wrap it up and move onto something new. I should be tossing it into UE for final renders, but here's some iray stuff out of substance.
Gonna drop a link to the artstation page as well.Thanks!

Back with some final renders! I think the only thing I did since the last post was adding the beam, and very minor material tweaks. Pretty happy with how it turned out, but might go back to the beam later if I can whip up something more along the lines of what I was originally thinking.
Renders are out of Marmoset, 4K textures, 35.4k polys, etc, etc - turnarounds and individual detail shots are up on artstation
