Broken Sword

With this piece I wanted to showcase my interest in stylized shapes and textures by creating a fantasy style broadsword with a mixture of PBR and handpainting when it comes to the textures and materials. I chose to make a broken blade for the purpose of including some animation along with some vfx effects to add to the feeling of a magic infused broken sword. I chose to rig and animate the blade in maya while the magic effect was animated in Marmoset Toolbag 3. A Marmoset viewer can be found at the bottom of the page.

This was created over the course of about 3 weeks half time starting with modelling in maya, highpoly creation in Zbrush, baking and texturing in Substance painter and then lit and rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 3.
