Thoughts about my first sword i’ve created?

This sword looks really good, but to me the sword looks all then. Plus the handle looks like it’s thin the lines going down is not center and the sword top of the blade looks open a little. Some picture here is what you need to fix up…!
But all for know the sword looks great just make sure to open it up a little. Don’t make it very thin at the bottom, Hope to see more from you soon.

Looks really cool. Maybe make the blade reflective and add neon to they yellow parts. Other than that its really cool.

For a first build, it is nice, however if I was you, i’d do the following to improve:
- Do not use wedges, you definetly used some for the blade’s tip, it’ll fix the small line.
- For a more “smooth” blade, I suggest making it look like it’d be able to cut, and not just plain squary.
As in: you rotate two negates on each sides of a brick, then union.
(I strongly recommend a mirror plugin)

Do you know any mirror plug-ins or other plug-ins that could be helpful with CSG?

I recommend the usage of Blender, if you’re looking for a higher quality of a sword and that the sword you’re trying to create in Studio is limited by the inability to union. Blender also allows you to use a mirror modification which will create a symmetric mirror of one half of the mesh.
IMO, the sword is flat on topology, the software previously mentioned gives you more control on the shape of the mesh, through vertices.
If you’re still sticking to the Studio, that’s fine. Remember to utilize unions well.

I use this, doesn’t work on unions.

For your first sword, it looks great! But, there are a few things I noticed that could be changed.
- The lines you have look good but they are not straight.
- It looks like your sword doesn’t have a idle animation. If you CAN make a animation for your sword you should make one because it’s a nice touch.
- Maybe make the sword another material? It looks too un-real to me. (What I mean is that the sword looks like one of those plastic swords kids use and that it doesn’t look real.)
For your first sword, you’re doing a great job! Continue with the awesome work you’re doing!
