So this is what it looks like so far! Still need to model some designs on the guard, but I think I’ll keep the more refined details for the textures, and try a more hand-painted process.
I like how they added the small hooks to catch the blade. Wouldn’t want your beautiful bronze snake guard to lose a head.


I also went a bit too far and translated the runes on the blade.
“Let my sword be your last warning”
