SMC M#01 - czacen - Legendary Weapon - Zabimaru

czacen · 04-11-2009, 08:05 AM

Hope this qualifies as a legendary weapon. Belongs to a soul reaper from the bleach anime. Its a cross between sword and whip. Just reserving this space atm. Will probably only start this after i get home from work.

Niiiice. I dig that blade. Can't wait to see it!!!

Awesome, when I saw the title, I was expecting to see Zabimaru in Bankai

czacen · 05-11-2009, 02:06 AM

Been having some problems with attaching files to posts. So far I was able to attach the beauty render but not the clay or wire frame. This took 60mins to model and another 53 to detail and tweak. I have recorded a video of the first 1 Hour modeling part. If anyone is interested I could upload it. Is there a way to upload it to the forums? (120mb file) :P

@ ragupasta : I initially wanted to do the Bankai mode, but I was concerned about making all that hair look good enough in 3D within just 2 Hrs. So I chickened out and did the Shikai

.

Stunning....thats all I can say. Excellent work man!

pables · 05-11-2009, 10:56 AM

Yeah, I also follow Bleach manga, and you nailed it. Love that hypershot render.

bgen · 05-11-2009, 10:57 AM

model looks ace. i love the grip - the cork stuff makes it nice.

hulahuga · 05-11-2009, 01:00 PM

czacen · 05-11-2009, 04:33 PM

Hi everyone. I too decided to get onto the multiple entry bandwagon. However I decided to choose the same sword, just another version of it. This time the Modeling took 90mins. Corrections and Refining took another 20mins. I have recorded the building of this model right from scratch and I will find a place to upload the video file. The pic below is just a viewport screen grab. I will render and post the required beauty, clay and wireframe images in the morning

Your'e doing a great a great work there! Love that bankai form of zabimaru.

This new smcs are gonna be really hard! That's good for everyone. Looking forward those vids, have you tried to upload on Vimeo?

SR_6274 · 05-11-2009, 09:34 PM

I love the first one. Great modeling and very nice render. The second one looks great too. Can't wait to see the textured version.

I also want to look at your videos, they should be cool to watch.

zipel · 05-11-2009, 09:45 PM

This 3rd is awesome (not that i don't like the first 2

), but i think it's important for a model to be unique and stand out of the crowd.

bgen · 05-11-2009, 10:03 PM

hmm i still like Zabimaru as a Blade. nethertheless awsome job.
i bet the render of the banzai Zabimaru will be as great if not even better.
keep up the work.

phoelix · 06-11-2009, 02:31 AM

The sword look very sexy, how about painting a nice texture in the blade? like a sort of tribal drawing... or a futuristic imprint
