So,one last final entry to this competition,lots of entries have been slash weapons,namely swords. So I figured another blunt would be a fun weapon to make. So I was thinking of a variant of the Grand Mace, that looks a little more brutal then the original. The general inspiration,is based off Sauron's mace from Lord of…
Here's some quick crit; 1) Sword in stone: The pillars surrounding your sword need micro detail. Right now the surface looks really soft. I can't read the material, kinda looks like a mix of stone or ice or something, but I think your scene would be better if the material was more readable. The glowing sword is cool, but…
Hey! Nice concept! The proportions and costume design are pretty solid. I think you can do the knee pads better, the design is there but I think the execution is pretty rough, really try to nail that form and design and make it clear. Also in terms of pose, everything is looking solid except for her left arm. It appears to…
Hi, Its my first comment so excuse me if its not all that useful. I spent some time analysing your sword and stumbled upon a realization that I dont understand swords all thet much which made me curious to research it. With that said I think you have done a good job especially with the rusty crossguard, the edges look worn…
Redesigning things as beloved as this is a tough project for sure!! (your sword ref link didnt work for me so i apologize in advance, I dont know what sword you used as ref) If you look up Flame-bladed swords or a kris sword (which were both ceremonial and combative) you can see some cool ways to maybe incorporate the…
So this is where it all ended up, regretfully I wasn't able to update this thread as much as I wanted, since I've been spending most of my free time sculpting/texturing. It was I fun project and I'm glad I at least got my idea out of my head/sketch book and into a sculpt even if I felt the lack of time on the project. Hope…
Hi, guys! I'm trying to produce a simple effect, but I don't really know how. I have to objects. 1 sphere and 1 sword. I wanted the sword to stab the sphere and make it leak (water or blood liquid), from the points where the sword makes contact with its surface. Also, I wanted some of this liquid to be carried over with…
Hello everyone. Decided to give it a shot at this contest! Leona the Radiant Dawn really speaks to me the most so she's my champion of choice. I'm aiming for thie "guardian" side of her - the protector, the last one standing, the martyr. Still on sketching phase, still not happy with it though.
I decided to upgrade the concept of the sword that I posted here earlier. I also decided to make this sword in 3D, so not so long time ago I started studying 3D modeling in Maya. A little bit about the lore of this sword: This is a sci-fi sword of scouts-cartographers of the time of the third interplanetary war. It is used…
The motion looks better, but the sword still magically slices through the side of the dwarf when it goes from one pose to another. I think its missing a sadistic pause just before the main thrust. It looks like you could give the sword some distance from the dwarf by stretching and rotate the shoulder of the sword arm…
