This project was developed as a personal study to practice weapon design and master the intersection of hard-surface modeling and organic sculpting within ZBrush. The focus was on achieving high-fidelity surface details and material definition directly on the mesh.
 

Key Technical Focus:

• Material Contrast: Explored the structural balance between the hard-surface metal blade and the organic, hand-carved textures of the wooden branch handle.

​​

• Surface Wear Practice: Sculpted realistic battle damage, edge wear, and tightly wound leather grips to practice storytelling through asset weathering.
