Alright, so Ive been making this sword on and off. Finally decided to pick it up again, and I came up with an idea I need some help with. So there is a hole in the handle, and I was thinking of putting a ring going through it with a feather hanging off. I made a picture so you guys can see it easier.

Should I model out the feather and bake it to a normal, or just use an alpha?
And if I had to use an alpha, how would I make it? Thanks!
