I wanted this warrior to look rough, but to also have something mystical about him. Therefore, I decided on a bluish palette, fair hair and dimmed skin colour. To make the cleaver more mysterious and not so brute, I wanted for the blade to have an unusual glow and texture, inspired by artistic glass sculptures.
To make the texture as seamless as possible I used Mari to paint it on the model with some final touches in Photoshop.
models:
WARRIOR (850 Tris): colour & specular maps + UV (original size 512x512 pixels)
CLEAVER (176 Tris): colour, translucent & specular maps + UV (original size 512x512 pixels)
