PrometheusTS Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Ok what do you think of this sword? Rate it from 1 to 10 and possible tell me all the improvements I need to add ... I have yet to tweak well the materials to get the proper shinness and reflection .... http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/9193/dovahmaaringame1.jpg http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/9297/dovahmaaringame2.jpg http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/3526/dovahmaaringame3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberok92 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Hey man could you post a detail tutorial vid of how you did everything all the way from modeling to all the shininess and stuff. I just started learning how to use 3ds max with an end goal to make new artifacts swords. And you seem to know what youre doing so any help/guidance would be welcome.

mgbeach Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've been following this all the way from the start, and you really have made an amazing piece of work here. I think being so special it needs some kind of glow, or maybe make the polished edge of the blade more reflective. Awesome stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galacticat42 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm thinking the blade needs more shine like Anduril. http://www.swordsofvalor.com/images/reviews/DarkswordAnduril/AndurilMedsm.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrometheusTS Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Is that a pic a render or ingame ? Other changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galacticat42 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) A pic of the sword used in the movie... (LOTR) Anduril is Aragorn's sword. I do know that the skyrim engine does have reflect-ability with its ingame renderer. Edited February 16, 2012 by Budz42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrometheusTS Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Not realtime ref unless for water may be but uses env maps i added that but yeah I want to redo the blade texture so far to have better razorlike feel and temper in steel ... I plan to make an akaviri forge with snake head or drahon head sculptures carvings ... The forge will alliw to learn the secret riddle of the akaviri steel .... Similar to the celestial forge ...

PrometheusTS Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the comments ... Here I have tweaked a bit more the material , may be is not needed a gold engraving of the sword blade coudl make it look too much ornate and less a for use sword .... what you think? http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/64/blade2q.jpg http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/776/bladefz.jpg Edited February 16, 2012 by PROMETHEUS_ts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
