Workshop #3 - Nemecys

Nemecys

In my vast efforts to improve my 3D skills i decided to start up on a Workshop, and i thought that i had best start off simple and back to basics so i kept it simple with an Axe


Heres the progress so far i suppose the only real comments can be on the topology

Heres two shots of it so far if im going wrong somewhere please say




any reccomendations whether the head should be seperate or should they be all the same piece?

Quick Update :




showing the Finished head piece of the Base Mesh nicely quaded to take into z Brush for details

High Poly Model done, im not entirely happy with it the wood cuts look deeper than they are,

This project is flying by but im learning alot about how to keep tight edges and everything else, im now working on the low poly and im MILES below the tri count
as you can see


im now just adding more loops in places to just improve the silohuette and form of the axe in general, Is there something ive missed out or something cause this is going by far to fast... =/

please C&C

The axe looks pretty good. I think where the wood handle enters the metal axe head, it might go all the way through and show slightly at the other side. The quality of the axes seem to indicate that it would probably be flush with the metal.
