Velh and Noriin

[Noriin]

Here is my humble approach on Velh's knives and sheathes
The knive is modeled in Blender and the pictures have been slightly edited in Photoshop





I'm not sure if the images' size may be too big, if so please notify me and I will be cutting it down \o/

[Velh Krome]

Thanks for all your compliments, as well as for the critics which made me think on how to improve things!
Also, I was pretty amazed on all the echo you gave me=)

Noriin, you call that .. "humble approach"? you must be kidding, uh?!;)
Those knives are just grant!

[Sahra]

hahahah!     I think it's great! (Gosh, this place is great for this type of criticism/improvement isn't it?)  Keep on truckin' truckin' truckin' truckin' truckinnnnn' 
PS Do you make these in photoshop? (interested in methods)
 

[Velh Krome]

Since 019 took the scars out of Velhs face and turned him into an 8 years old kiddo (I will forbid myself to rant now;)) ook. Thanks Noriin!




And Sahra, I am following your thread with interest! Watching your drawings improve with each single one is pretty amazing - keep going, its a pleasure.

...WOW...great pictures!! I want to be able to do stuff like that...

@Noriin:
The writing on the first knife, should that be tengwar? If yes, it goes the wrong way (like in a mirror)

[Noriin]

The writing in that knife was taken indeed from a line in tengwar, due the apparent lack of a dermorian language to the date.
It is however looking down, you would need to rotate the knife about 180 degrees to see it from the right point of view.

Also, I had some problems with subsurfs (edge smoothing) in the texture mapping process, for the "tails" at the bottom of every letter are cut anyway.

[Myriel]

actually you have to rotate and mirror it...and then it's still almost impossible to read with the "tails" and most tehtar cut away...but it definitely looks nice!
Just...would you tell me what it means? I'm just too curious...

[Velh Krome]

I renamed this thread from formerly "Velh.." to "Velh and Noriin", hope thats no problem.

These are a Banshee-version and a more.. common one of Noriin.

Are y'all, like, married or something?

   They aren't at least as far as I know. But they act lovey dovey.

[Earl_Listbard]

Going steady i'd presume.

[Rongar Elani]

Excellent pictures! First one of the two is my favorite though. Nevertheless, top notch,

[Velh Krome]

Thanks for your replies and your.. interest;)

I have a tablet now and played around with it - a very funny and comfortable tool! So one more image of Velh.

Cheers to Noriin for the grand support there o/

[Raa]

What tablet are you using, and what program did you use to make your signature?

[Marqsaynt]

I Really like that last one Velh keep up the good work!
