Basic human sword

[The_Spellweaver]

Magnificent form, superb girth - would shove it into people all day long!

Thanks.....i guess?

Looks ok, but the tip is way too white. The same with parts of the ring at the bottom of the shaft.

 

[closedboudy]

although i like it the way it currently is, i'll check how it would look if follow you recommendation

thanks either way!

Good first try model, but it also has some major and minor flaws.
Please fix/adjust the following:

• +600 polygons for such a simple model is way too much. Try to reduce it to about 200 at most.
• The lightning and wrapping does not look good with other attachment models.
• The shape of the sword does not make sense:
  The handle is way too short and should not get smaller/thinner. It does not fit into wc3.

ok i'll work on fixing it thanks for the feedback!

just asking to make sure, plygons are "faces" right?

Honestly? It is worse now. You did not take any of my purposed advice to heart. In fact you made the model, its shading, lighting and wrap worse somehow.
Please take more time in improving it and REALLY make the edit.

sorry im trying my best this is my first model, i'll try again

Don't be sorry, just put more care in your work and be better next time.

 

[closedboudy]

updated the sword and hopefully the lighting is all good now

 

[FeelsGoodMan]

Hey that's a lot better, it actually looks half decent now.

 

[closedboudy]

thank you my main problem was that i didnt know how to shade correctly its much better now

 

[closedboudy]

after looking at it for a bit i think i accidentally flipped the sword the lighter area should be on the top fixing it rn


Edit: Done.

Edit2: IDK why but the polygon count shows up as 486 on hive while its 214 on blender

 

[General Frank]

The hilt is still kinda bad and not appropriately scaled and the wrapping is very bad in some places.
Also, how does that ring holds itself there?

 

[closedboudy]

from the game camera angles you cant tell the that pommel(ring) isnt attached, the grip on the other hand might have to specify as im not sure which scale is weird about it, i am aware of the bad wrapping on the grip, although it does look good from game cameras, i want to fix it just havnt found the exact part of an image that i can use for it

thx for the feedback!
