rebaked normal maps
no more seams now
attached everything to one editable poly
and deleted hidden tris (liek the inside of something against something else
1506 polys , might even get less
If this is your 512, I must say it looks quite low rez compared to what I see on other threads. You might want to optimize your UVs, and work out your viewport settings to ensure you are showing the maximum potential of your texture.
Love the multicolour shot at the top of the page. It's like some funky lego hammer . But I think you've nailed the makers theme so well done and good luck.
I'm also glad to see you are exploring the axe design again. That rounded blade really adds to the overal piece.
