yeah I agree, the sharpness of a medieval longsword is a urban legend, just a fantasy feature, so as a fantasy game sword it wouldn't hurt if it was sharp, but it doesn't kill the look to leave it that way
If by any chance somebody need the model, here is a link: https://share.fejes.dev/share/bft_tank Important: this is a high poly model, not game-ready as-is.
Edit: Submissions are closed, thanks everyone! There will be more giveaways in the future. Hello! I'm giving away one slot to my mentorship for free! =) So if you are interested in learning hardsurface modeling, this might be for you. Or maybe you know someone who might be interested, feel free to share. You will get the…
Seams from islands is only used as a lead-up to selecting the mark as sharp feature... You could always select the entire mesh and clear seams once the edges are marked as sharp :P
There is a reflection toggle? That is news to me =D Specular and reflection are one in the same, if you want a blurrier spec/reflection turn the sharpness done, if you want sharper reflections, turn the sharpness up.
improving - watch the corners of the mouth, they are a bit sharp and some weird shading errors there. perhaps the sharp lines should be softened off a little on the neck, she is getting a bit mannequin looking in places
This is more like smooth round rather than smooth floor, but maybe you can work with it: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/t8ev8mqdls a = number of steps b = sharpness it runs into problems with a "sharpness" value below 15.
Looking great man, my biggest crit is that the mouth looks far too sharp, he has no lips at all. It looks like someone cut through clay with a scalpel it has such a razor sharp edge.
You're right a lot of the edges are too sharp but at the same time it feels like its made of plastic not metal if I don't make them sharp enough. And yeah not sure what rdmlegend was getting at since this is a highpoly.
