Obsidian Crystalys

Obsidian Crystalys​




A bow empowered from rare crystals, seeking weak points in enemy armor.




This is my first model, I'm still learning more about things to help me improve my models.
Tips and advice are much appreciated, have a nice day!

give credits if used, you are free to resize and rotate the model as you see fit.

Obsidian Crystalys (Model)

Reviews
General Frank
A fine and simple custom attachment model. Good job.
Interesting idea, but there are some smaller and bigger flaws with the model itself.
Please fix the following issues and improve on the quality:
  • The death animation is faulty. The model needs to be entirely invisible in the death animation.
  • The wrapping on the top is really bad and undefined.
  • The glows should be billboarded.
  • The crystal and the whole model is rather flat. Maybe it is good to make them more voluminous.
  • The bow does not have a string or similar. Maybe adding something like that will make it look more like a bow.

Updated, hopefully fixed everything stated above.

Imo i think a purple glow could fit better with obsidian stuff
Turns out purple glow fits perfectly, thanks!

It looks like the legendary bow dropped by the dungeon team!
thanks! thats the look i was aiming for :grin:

Could you potentially add an item model? Doesn't have to be much just a hover up and down with a generic glow.
i might or might not, i still don't know how to do that. but eventually i know ill do, so probably cuz im still in the process of making a new model rn :wink:
