Sword name: Vampiric Hook Sword
Type: Hook Sword Parasitic Plant Commentary and side note: Returned to more hand drawn project after one of the sword 3d paint over attempt end up going way over board in term of schedule and i wanted shorten less perfection driven project by the end of the swordtember done so this project as flat color to stay within reasonable time frame. I think i made the hook head a bit to similar to the hand guard in term of proportion which kind of make the thing a little to balance and the guard to exaggerated but to my defense hook sword do have a pretty massive hand guard compare to sword in general. I had to put that 3d paint over project on hold not to burn out but i have the intention to finish it just because of the hour invested.

Sapping chi Chokuto
Type:Chokuto/Concealed weapon Wielder: Old Hermit Grip type:One hand no wrapping Size:45cm to 95 cm The chokutō is a Short straight sword, single-edged sword This weapon seems thirst for light You sense its hunger. This one was lot of fun i wanted to make it a bit more illustrative and interesting compositionally speaking not just a straight to the point design see if i could manage to do it in a similar time as my previous project. Design wise it was possible because the design was pretty straight forward and the visual effect were not a time sink.

Those are some awesome designs! My personal favorite is the second, the one with the butterfly, works incredibly well. Keep up the great work!

I appreciate the feedback might try to incorporate the butterfly aspect to the other design that was pick instead. Initially i was think to have the butterfly wing as glass but i think this would be impractical for battle so it would either be a ceremonial sword if i go that route or i would have to make the butterfly wing be ''empty'' where you can basically have object pass between the inside of the wing. Anyways the design i pick is the fifth one and it include a pair of decorative wing they are not as flashy as the other but there are a good compromise.If anything i can always just repurpose the wing in that design and added them in the hilt but i agree that the other design as it own charm so it still open for change.I am still using 3d so there time where i am surpris by how complex certain design decision turn out to be to modelized which is a problem i faced in one of the sword project.Flat object or pretty hard edge object are easy to translate from 2d to 3d but more organic shape with curve and bevel pose a more significative challenge so far. Since swordtember is over i am trying to move on and reduce the complexity of that project since i also got on other sword to finish which is very complex

Nice to hear, I don't know too much about 3D but I always appreciate solid work modelled in 3D, it's definitely a lot harder than it looks.
And yeah, I agree that simplifying the shapes a bit if you have a ton to do is the way to go, I don't think being too overdesigned would be beneficial as that will just take longer which can lead to burnout. Keep up the great work and thanks again for your feedback, always great to hear from you as well as seeing you progress, great stuff!

Well i think burning outas a lot to do with misjudging the complexity of project and also when you don't properly recover between project your confidence level might drop and that where i think performance issue happen because fatigue overtime is a thing you can always go up a difficulty slope but it really about how extreme that complexity become that define if you will burn out or not. That why i always think it important to isolate ok what the new thing i am trying to do and how much did i do it before and how many thing i am mixing together that add to the complexity of doing that project. It a bit like predicting the outcome of a meal you never done before. You know the ingredient but not necessary if everything pair nicely or how much time it might take to prepare and how long is it going to take to get to the final. All that matter is that you are ready to experiment and have fun you got so much out of just having the right mindset. That certainly something i am practicing ''being playful'' even when thing get more complex trying to stay flexible and subvert my own expectation and to be able to let go at certain key moment and allow happy accident to expand the boundary of imagination when i might be confine by whatever limitation occur on any given project.
