[WIP] - Sword (can't think of a name for it)

[synthblade]

Well I've been working on this sword for a couple of days. Taking my time between trying to play wow on this crap computer and playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare (Reflex) for the wii.

My old PC's motherboard crapped out so I'm stuck using this one until I get my income tax. Then I'll be building my own!

Anyways, sorry to babble about my problems. Here's what Ive been working on since I've "returned" to Mmowned:

-The main preview-

-The top of the handguard. Found this logo/symbol on google search for "s logo" just looking for something to represent Synthblade-

-The components that make up the sword, compared to the original image-

-Another perspective view, showing a little bit of shading-

All the images that make up the textures were found with google image search.
Another logo under the sword (the piece beneath the handguard).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

I made the sword myself, but did not draw the original image. I found the image on google... can you tell by now I like google?

Not ready to convert it for game use, I may want to change up the texture for it a little bit. Make the blade shiny or something like that. I'm also still looking for the tools to do so. - keeping my eye on Schlumpf's thread on a list of tools. You can see it here: http://www.mmowned.com/forums/model-...ing-tools.html

If anyone wants to create a new skin/texture for this model, here's the PNG that made up the current one. I'll also include the original UV Map.


Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome :wave:

Thanks pod, it's been a while! I just recently started getting back into model editing and I'm a bit limited on this PC. Waiting on my income tax then I'll be building a new one.

If you want to draw a few things up, PM me some pictures.
