Holy Cow ! The quality is mindblowing! Could you please tell me the name of software and renderer...? I always wonder how you guys get so high quality render...

O.o INCREDIBLE!!! is it the same Slayer Sword of The GW Games Day??

Thank you
I believe it's not the same Slayer Sword of The GW Games Day (if I knew what are you talking about

hey, that's well done. it's highly detailed, well-shaped and has a realistic looking material
I only think that the middle part could need some work, you might replace the gold-material there with something else, like you did on the hand shelter 
apart from that, great work, waiting for the final.

Thanks for the suggestion, yes, I'm going to play with the shader and the textures right after the Linspire competition. I have unwrapped the model just before the competition, so, that's the part where I'm stopped....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
gah, unwrapping. I have so much problems with that 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
In what package are you working ? maybe I can help with some tutorials or advices ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I use 3ds max. and can't really get behind that mystery of unwrapping. well, I think I will have to practice it until I get it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I used to work with 3dsMax also
Try this tutorial - [link]
It's simply the best modeling tutorial I've ever seen, helped me a lot, even when I started working with Maya, and there is also very good UVW and texturing tutorial inserted
I hope this helps you, Good Luck !

I already have that somewhere, I just had no time to go it through yet. but I will do that
by the way, what time do you have it over there?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's 1:30 here and tomorrow (or already today to be precise) goint to be my first educational day in the Institute
I hope I'll wake up at 8:00 this morning
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe, I know that, sometimes I start working in the evening
what are you going to do in the institute?

learn, learn and once more, learn

practical psychology and digital design?? can't really imagine something under that combination, but it soudns interesting
for me studying starts next year, first comes one year civil service!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And where are you planning to go then ? Maybe you have in mind some University or any other Educational Institution ?
Well, I've never thought too that practical psychology and digital design could be "under one roof", but it is working out nice as I see
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, I really want to get into the graphics branche...the problem is what to study...there are several private academies in germany, but I can't afford the fees. they start at about 10000 euro, and go up to 43500 euro for 2 years
so maybe I will go into media design or communication design...not sure yet, that's the problem
what you are studying doesn't sound like something that you hear everyday, so I suppose it's not too crowded, is it?
see you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah...the prices are really high, I can't afford such also, but I'm really happy that here is such place.
And yes, It's not too crowded here
Psychology of the client, to know what he wants and how to sell what you got to him
p.s. sorry for my english
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
your english is ok
hm, especially the point psychology of colour sounds great, I really do like reading colour theory sometimes, how colours work, what effect they achieve and how they affect a persons behaviour...the more you tell me about it, the more logical the combination of psychology and design appears to me
sorry for the late answer by the way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's nothing, I also reply not so quickly...I mostly write replies when I'm in the mood, I just answer them all one by one
At the beginning I also thought that what could Design and Psychology have in common, sounded strange, but now I see that those "ologies" stand really close to each other...how the optical illusions are made in the letters and pictures...Tomorrow is the final working day of the week...I hope I'll get some normal sleep after that, and continue working on own projects 
How is your school ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
illusions...do you know M.C. Escher? he's a master of illusion... you should search the net for his "high and low" or "up and down" as it is called sometimes. a masterpiece if you ask me, some day I must purchase a print of it
you have no school on mondays? gah
hehe, I am out of school ^^ and I got my job for civil service now
at the moment I am modelling my battle buggy for a short animation a friend and I want to make
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I followed your suggestion, and looked up his "High and Low", I liked it
By the way I'm also taking driving lessons...so in some months I will have a license
Tell me more about your project ? an animation you say
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
similar works? from escher? hm, too bad that a high and low print is so damn expensive.
how are the driving lessons going? I still have not started, I should talk to my parents if they will contribute to the payment.
well, the animation is something I am planning with a friend. each one of us is modelling a little battle buggy, just like my concept (that linspire submission) and then we want to do a 1 minute animation of how both are fighting against each other. not in a brutal, rather in a funny way
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Blah ! I have written a reply and in the end I accidently pushed some combination of the keys and the window closed...
My driving lessons are good, the theory is really not that simple
As for the art and so....I decided to make some low-polygonal organic game models, just to practice my skills and tryout something new...and to show that I can
So, how is your animation going ? in what phase of the progress are you now ? Modeling, or are you already animating ?
Good Luck
...And again, sorry for my laziness
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
low polygonal organic? like humans? or rather some kind of animals? hm, character modelling is pretty hard I think, I just began a new had for practising purpose and I don't really like it ^^ I really need to learn the techniques.
the animation project is stuck at the moment, my friend is too busy with work, and hardly finds some free time =/ and he has another personal project running, which is pretty cool.
but I finished my fiat500, I submitted it to dA too, so if you want, have a look at it
I still haven't begun with driving school, searching a work-experience... but no company answered so far. but today I got a new pupil for piano lessons, which is quite cool

Sorry for the non-advanced critique, but this is awesome. What kind of tools do you use for this?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks for your comment
This sword was made in 3d package - Alias Maya (like 3ds Max, Lightwave and so on...) It's a polygonal model, without any bump, height or displacement maps, just handwork
Feel free to ask anything else.
Good Luck !

Modeling is great, i'm gona watch you, maybe i will learn something

oh, wow, the detail image is nice, but this is sooo mcuh cooler! i like the mini sword detail in the center. is the handle long enough for a two handed hold? the grip seems a bit short, but i know little about swords. add a blade!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you for your comment ! About the handle - you are absolutelly right, I already lengthened it, so now it looks more tho-handed, it's just that the render is old

Thanx
I'm now finishing the UnWrap of the model, so it's the "Photoshop" phase next
