  Ohhhhhhhhh, I likes! I likes alot!

So ..... this being a mod will you have a link to download this when you are finished? Or are you just teasing ..... 

[zhai]

very nice... can i order a whip?

[miadon]

a whip? ooh-la-la. :\  really need a quiver now

[Iamthom]

ooo, i like the ideas! This is what I need lol.

Zorbel, im just gonna keep it as a tease right now. Im going to set up a "shop" in town and hopefully start a fun RP quest. Dont worry, it wont take longer than a few more days.

Reminds me of this bow:
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Rotwing_Recurve_Bow

A couple comments, try making the thickness of the bow not so uniform (looks like a bent tube - taper it down as it nears the ends), and maybe add some detail to the wood/white stuff.  A good start though, props.

[Iamthom]

hmmm, that website seems to have frozen my window lol 

thanks for the comments. And although its hard to see from the angles (I kept them to the side) the bow actually does taper as it goes down, since each end is meant to be a blade.


ah there we go, now the site works. Thats a fun bow, a little confusing on where the string would go, but still really cool looking.

Edit

Yay =) I finally started texturing my "shop". Thats the best part as long as the mapping goes as planned  Im not sure if ill finish it tonight or not, its getting late (early?)

Hi,

Very nice, and good initiative getting it exported and into PS. The UV-mapping looks well done too. The only thing that distracts me a bit  are the blades. I tend to see them as feathers.

All in all, a neat PS-ready package.

hehe, yeah. I agree. The blades do not completely look like how I wanted them  Its hard making a metal texture lol. I think I said this before though, since my pictures are all profile, some of the "needed" features can only be seen when its in a 3d world. Thanks for the comments 

Im still working on my shop, im about 30% done the texturing. It makes me excited, although I think im going to have to redo one part because it looks bad to me 

 


Edit:

When I get home from work, ill post all the need files so you guys can see how it looks for yourself. It tends to look goofy among certain races like dwarfs though 

[Iamthom]

Alright, I kinda dont feel like making this available since it WILL look goofy on some characters, but hey, here you go:
