@dermhye Your sword-in-the-stone project turned out good! The sword especially with it’s sparkly blooms and high contrast reflections – I love that stuff.
I like everything about the sword except one small thing: The blade edges are too perfectly straight. Too computer-generated straight. If the texture had some edge highlighting, it could be used as bump information to make the edges slightly imperfect. Edge highlighting could also be used to vary the intensity and clarify of reflections.
The stone still feels a bit unnatural to me. More like an alien boulder than a terrestrial one imo. Definitely check out that course if you haven’t already.
Still based on the quality of the sword, you’ve earned an A from me.
