Gothic sword

While working on this gothic sword, I tried to try new texturing possibilities by combining hand painting with the pipelining I already knew. An obligatory step was to convey the feeling of luminosity of the upper part of the sword

This project was based on one of the amazing sword concepts by Lola Giron
