Hay all!
I just modeled this: It`s the upper end of a halberd ("Hellenbarde") which has been the common weapon of the Swiss mercenaries since the 13th century. There were various forms of this weapon, but the main characteristics remained for centuries (until the modern firearms appeared): A hook to pull a rider (/knight) down from his horse (A), a point to stab enemies or the horses they are riding (B) and a heavy blade to crack helmets and armour ©.

Greetz, hope u like it.

Thats pretty good but mabey some more detailed definition would make it look alot better.

[Lifetaker]

Thanks!
What do u want to know? The mercenaries fought for and in different countries in europe (while Switzerland itself remained independent) and it happened that Swiss mercenaries had to fight against other Swiss mercenaries (remember having heard that somewhere :worried: ). They were said to be very good soldiers. As u can see the weapon was often used against cavalry.

PS: I tried to keep the polygon number quite low (Im a high-poly-fetishist )

PPS: I`s my 2nd model ever!

its all good man. Only problem is that it looks like plastic. Mabey try flatening the surface a bit and giving it mare or a rough skin. (Possible makeing the model a little more sharper?)

[Lifetaker]

Hmmm... you know, I didn`t put any Skin on it. It has been rendered by the modeling program itself (Milkshape). In fact the surface of the model is toally flat, I just modeled the blade, that`s probably the reason why it looks so unnatural?

PS: Making it sharper by modelling?
