Sword Project

Wolfer

hi there so working on a sword, just personal project and here is how it came out in texture with substance painter that i'm using. I been looking at many swords both realistic and 3d to help me out. I'm going to see about adding some bump detail on it but just wanted to see about any feedback on what I could to improve the texture for it.

Right now it's a bit too basic for this kind of texturing. The detail level you have is more fit for hand painting a lot of stuff on.
Is there a concept or reference you're working from? If not, what's the goal of this sword?
I'm also seeing what look like baking errors all over the sword.

Actually that might be from the height detail I tried to put around the hilt.  I was just seeing if I could take a concept drawing of mine and make it into a 3d model.

So i finish up the sword, just as i mention this was just personal project and practice I wanted to do.  Fixed up the sword some. If anyone has any thought on how i could improve for next time, I appreciate it.
