[DS2] Axe , Korax

Korax · Mar 2012

Hi all, it's my first post in polycount community :poly136: !
For the axe i was inspired by the image of a crow hunting, and from this have given shape to the head of the weapon.
Will follow the directions of the Crow Temple.

great idea man! only keep it in mind that you need more stylized shapes and forms

right now it seems kinda real for me

I thought much and much about the style of weapon and have modified the previous concept to make it more like the world of DarkSiders.

Here reference and base mesh rdy for Zbrush:

and this is a final concept for sculpting and texturing

Hey Korax, nice work. I'd say the bird skulls on the middle of the handle are a little problematic. Maybe consider making them flush w/ the handle or smaller and closer to the head.

Yes, i'm very unsure for the skull at middle, but I want a piece that very detaches the head from the handle, i think i'll try to turn the skulls (i'd like them to look upwards) or make them smaller. Thanks for tips !
( and thanks tsabszy for advice, i change the concept and love now )
