Hey after seeing some eagle themed entries thought it would be nice to have a snake inspired set too.
so here is a spear and helmet sketch.
Still feeling the drain of the other contest in the bones so updates will probably come in slow (or never =P)

I randomly saw this image today and when I saw this thread I thought you might be inspired by it.
Not sure how much real use you will have of it. But it looked cool haha
Some Dynamesh fun for helmets and shortbow + zweih
you see, many people think a zweihander is just a big sword it isn't. if you grab a random sword and enlarge it, you won't get a zweihander. what about the ricasso, the double crossguard, longer blade in comparison to the hilt, heavyer pommel?
Think about these things! it will make your work seem much more realistic!
Tried to adjust the proportions, also the pommel got smaller, when looking at references it actually is not that big for those swords. Guess the overall mass of the handle and crossguard is enough to balance it out.
My favourite is the middle on, the blade is probably not very realistic but i think it just look nice.
Also high and lowpoly for the helmet with a first texture pass.
Update on sword and archer helmet.
Got the stuff into the engine thanks to the tutorials
Calling it done!
unless you spot anything awkward. Maybe the whole thing is awkward but not much i can do about that (except make another hopefully better item).
Tried to make things a bit shinier too, think it looks a bit better now.
So here is a overpaint what i want to change.
Will get rid of a lot of the yellow parts, split it up in more plates with bolts connecting them. Tried to incorporate some of the swords design to tie it together ,especially for the backside of the helmet. Also incorporated the agathian cross and some smaller crosses for the breathing holes (that might change tho not totally satisfied with those yet).
@jackalope: Thanks man, got the split tongue back into the helmet.
@Syros: Thx
Got the changes done. Think the texture turned out much better this time, less noisy and the metals seperate better. Thanks to the one who mentioned that pressing L is for moving the light. Much easier to present the specular this way.
Now off to redoing all the presentation material.
The only way I would like it more is if I wasn't competing against you in the same category haha :poly124:
Well done, and good luck.
Just posted in final submission thread. Also was able to update the workshop item whithout having to delete it. Maybe it would have worked in the first place and there was something wrong on my end.
