Urwy's Progress

For future reference and for the scythe. Remmember when doing elven stuff it would be really clean and smooth.

Arya's blade looks alot better. It's a lot cleaner now like elven stuff should be. An remember Try to avoid using that wood texture of yours on the other elven stuff...

I dropped using phototextures (the wood, metal and everything) and went for custom textures. Meaning i'll add every scratch, dent and stain myself
For now, arya's blade still needs some engravings on the base of the blade and maybe some more details to the grip.

That one definately needs re-doing the dragon bone blade idea was good. but doesnt look it. Dont know what you should do with it though...

I think i'm ready with the draco's bane. Want me to upload it so you can start working on it?

(there is no detailed pommel since it wont show much in-game so i tought i wont 'waste' vertexes on that...)

low poly is under 1,4k verts atm.

Edit: "Dont know what you should do with it though..." I say don't redo the first 3models, those which have over 1k vertexes. if we want to use them, i need to redo the models.

nah, if the old models have around 1K vertices, and this new one 1,4K , i think it can't hurt to use all of them. Would be a shame to let all those pretty models go to waste
And yesh, please do uplaod the model i wanna get my hands on that beauty

well now we could make the new ones even better looking? so why not?

well, toughts?
will it work? hi and low differ so much.

Looks good Think it wont be much of a problem
Haven't baking tried it yet.. isnt a wise thing to do when it's getting late I'll see what happens somewhere tomorrow.

OP updated Arya's blade

Awesome but I think the blade of zar'roc is too matt, maybe it's a problem of in game or a new reflection map would fix it. Anyway, all greats works.

Hey if you ever get on your computer or whatever could you send me the finnished weapons, i could attempt to make a weapon pack and release it.

OP Updated:
Added Drake Shield

the normal map looks inverted

It isnt. But you might be right if you mean that it has a bit to much depth...
I'll adjust that.

Edit:
Adjusted.. Hows this?

I noticed, but didnt think it was that much of an issue. Its only noticeable up close when looking almost parallel to the shield.

But if you're gonna adjust it anyway, i suggest you use the model i already UV-mapped. Otherwise ive got to map and retexture the entire thing again XD

Try to use loopcuts and subdivides to fix it. Blender takes creating new faces and edges using "F" very badly. (messes up the uv-map)
This i why i keep suggesting some sort of shared storage space. (like dropbox or similar) that way we dont have to keep sending stuff, you just open the file i saved last
