Katana In Blender | Chill Modeling Time-lapse

Final Renders Here: www.artstation...
I was having a lot of issues with substance painter being unstable and crashing during this project, so I had to restart the texturing process over a few times and I also lost most of the footage of the texturing of this asset. That's why there is only a tiny snippet of substance painter footage in this video. Sorry about that!

TY homie.

This is incredible I’m having some trouble with the blade how did you make its end sharp???

[@squishybluecat]

I definitely recommend making the blade taper in thickness towards the end of the blade, that will make it look much more sharp than if you just merge the vertices at the end while keeping the thickness even through the whole length. Merge by distance is your friend when doing the edges and tip of the blade. ❤

I love this!! How did you make that blade's mesh and how much triangles did it reach??

Hi, your model is so cool! Can you also update the link to the final renders (for reference) because the one you've given in the description is not valid

[@squishybluecat]

I dont have the post up on my artstation anymore but if you give me a bit I can upload them somewhere for you. Just need to set up my pc again first because i recently moved.
