Design Philosophy

Every surface tells a story — from the chipped blade edge to the leather-wrapped grip showing years of use. The goal was cinematic-quality detail at every angle.

Details

  • Sword modeled with full-resolution edge flow for realistic specular highlights
  • Shield features layered metal edging with hand-painted wear patterns
  • Texturing done entirely in Substance Painter with custom smart materials
  • Sculpted high-frequency detail in ZBrush, baked down for game-ready normals
