Hand painted weapons practice
Hi all I've been spending the last few months learning to model with Maya and the last few weeks working from the very awesome hand painted texturing tutorial by Tyson Murphy. I really love stylized 3D art and I'm trying to learn to make some myself. :) Now that I've completed the tutorial I want to practice what I've… -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
@Zanmato That's great :) I'm glad that the course helped. It's definitely one of the best tutorials out there for learning hand painting. Working on the additional concepts is also very helpful to practice what you've learned from the tutorial so I would also recommend doing that. Make sure you post your art to get… -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
Gonna call this one done for now, though I think some parts are still too dark and I'm not sure about the blade (looks more like stone than metal I think . I'm happier with the gold parts this time around, but obviously still need more practice. :) model Let me know what you guys think. -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
@Xelan101 Wow, thanks so much for the amazing feedback. :) I really appreciate it. The gold areas were something I was really struggling with, so thank you for mentioning FirstKeeper and her work, I will definitely need to go and study that before I start painting the next sword. I knew there were things missing from my… -

Started to refine the blade a little bit more today -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
That silhouette is much improved! The general forms of the blade painting are coming along as well. The emblem towards the base of the blade feels a little polygonal at the moment but I'm sure you'll refine that shape as you come to it. Two things I would suggest early on are to define a lighting/shadow color and to… -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
much better! I made a video about a year ago talking about painting weapons.. I believe you will find some useful information in there for handpainting! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YMu2jy7Oqw&t=95s -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
Updates! So I re-modeled the handle because the geometry was pretty bad, I think it's much better now. I've been able to make a lot more progress with painting the handle, so here's where I'm at so far. Still not really finished yet as I need to fix a few things I'm not too happy with (feels like the bottom area of the… -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
Looking better and better you are doing great! Above I made some little changes. I believe the main thing would be try and give form to each big geometry you have. For example if you make the handle darker as it turns in space ( where the cylinder form starts to face away from us ) then the viewer will understand that its… -
Re: Hand painted weapons practice
Thought I'd do an update now that I've begun to paint. So I've adjusted the blade a bit more and I think the silhouette is looking better now. I also re-did the handle which seemed to resolve the UV problems I was having. I've also started a bit of painting work but it's very rough. I'm trying to figure out my values at…
