[WIP] Dwarven/Dwemer Weapons by TTG

I had an awesome teacher, that's the reason ;)

I shall also add that specular map looks a lot better out of sketchfab. Sketchfab - which also doesn't allow me to upload another file (might be i have claymore done). I'll try post something new when i get home. Cheers!

Dwemer Claymore has its initial texture done:

It has 1.7k tris. Here's the link to sketchfab:

Thanks gentlemen!

Well i was wondering if we should add "clean"/"new" textures of dwemer weapons later - you know for forging purpose (you don't forged something that looks thousands years old, eh?) but i guess this is the subject for later.

Anyway - that would be spear:

1.4k tris

May need some tinkering as always. Peace!

Theese will be more shiny then it looks on sketchfab - i'll try to post some pics from the 3ds max to show what's the deal.

Don't worry - that's what the specular is for - the "rusty" part won't shine at all.

Thanks, I'm really glad you like it guys :) I'm leaving for a while - will be back just before new years eve and I'll try to work on other models while I'm gone. In the meantime please don't hesitate to leave the feedback here. Constructive criticism is something i can handle so if you have any idea how to improve the textures or even the models - feel free to write them here - the more, the better :) Also - Merry christmas, people!

Ok finally an update for the post. So i kind of bump it up.

That is probably it for today but i'm planing on adding 3 missing models till the end of the week. Cheers!

Okay.

I would say we move on to the next stage with dwemer weapons. The textures WILL be tweaked but basically it doesn't get much better than this.

Now i'll probably try working on dwemer crossbow, or the shield. Cheers!

Thats the plan :)

Well ideally we want both armours ingame - one would be sort of dwemer scavenger armour and the other one would probably be SUPER rare - an actual dwemer armor based on Dragomir's concept.

Thats the main point of discussion when it comes to dwemer models. Ofcourse the best way would be creating brand new super awesome looking spheres and centurions so they look more like morrowind ones. But ofcourse we dont really have people and time for that. And skyrim ones are really neat anyway.

Probably we will retexture existing models and create this armour based on bethesda's models too.

@Jorgen - the textures will probably be tweaked a bit when it comes to colours - see the first post where i wrote "Maybe a bit of tweaking the textures UV wise or changing the color or levels of the textures." So yeah i wouldn't worry about it. I myself like how the models look but don't worry, if we all decide theese need to be change a bit, I don't see the problem.

@LASentry - thanks, man :) I'm taking a break for a bit in order to learn more about 3d modelling, there is so much to learn. Hopefully, I'll get back to dwemer stuff really soon and provide more and better models.

@Digmaster - Specular maps will give a nice shiny look to the blades - the idea is to make the blade parts more shiny. I was also thinking about retexturing every single uv for the smithing purpouses. That way you have the rusty one to collect from dwemer ruins and the newly forged ones when you make it yourself. But that is something we will get back to later.

Also - the shield mesh is done, I'm working on the bakes and textures - the devs think it needs more love and i definately agree with them. If you are curious, here is the link:

https://sketchfab.com/show/a4844538872d475586a88eee80a11052

please remember this is nothing close to the final texture. It will have more detail, rust and wont be so flat when it's done.

Ok - i didn't post anything for a while, but i still work on my models as often as i can. So hey, here you go - one of two dwemer shields (the second one will be made on the base of CG's concept art). I'll probably fix textures a bit, so the symbols will be higher resolution. Also be sure to check out 3d view on sketchfab. It's a bit dark for some reason, but you can see some interesting details that don't show up so good on this pic.

Thank you guys,

Saivryn - i'll see about that, maybe we can tweak the design a little bit.

Ravanna - don't you worry, you'll get your alpha. Actually i think there's even option to show it off on sketchfab. When i get final texture, i'll try uploading it too :)

Ok quick update - the shield with tweaked texture + emmision alpha. The "glowing" blue-ish symbols are probably going to look a bit better ingame - here you can just see what part of the texture is going to glow (i used emmision in sketchfab - this is not the same effect as we are going to use in game - i think)

https://skfb.ly/z9E6 - link to sketchfab if you want to check out the goods in three dimensions.

As always - comments and feedback appreciated. I think this is.. well.. completed model. Saivryn's suggestion will be taken into consideration in the other dwemer shield that we gonna create - you will see soon :)
