Here is the almost finished Conan Sword.It just needs some touching up on the blade and the etchings. All opinions welcome since this is my first custom prop for Poser, which will be available free for everyone, soon. Dwmdesigner

By Crom, that's turning out nice! You even remembered the cord-wound hilt. Will you post it here in Free Stuff, or at your website? Now that I have Michael 2, I really must start working on a Conan character, like Thorgrim's. Mine's going to be the Arnold version.

I have already done an Arnold version of Conan, I just have to create the clothes for him which will include the Fur underwear, Leather Codpiece, the "Wheel of Pain" Necklace, and the forehead piece. It is all, for Poser 4 so that way everyone can render their own Conan Scenes. Not everyone has "Michael" (I don't), & I think it's unfair for those who don't because they can't use those figures or Morphs. Yes the Sword will be posted in the Free Stuff Section of Renderosity. With all the great free downloads that I have taken from this site, I thought I would give something back! If there are enough people interested, I may even make a texture of a bloody sword with a bumpmap for a more realistic effect, for those Frazetta or Vallejio-like renders! Let me know what you think.

John Malis has a P4 Male Conan character, but it's the Frazetta version with the long dark hair, not Arnold. He does come with a "Wheel of Pain" necklace, though. Unfortunately, Malis' website is down at the moment.

Is that a bump map or is it mesh and if it is mesh how did you do that?

dwmdesigner ( ) posted Sat, 19 January 2002 at 1:30 AM

Sorry it's a trade secret ! only kidding! It's actually both, I made the details as a mesh but it was so detailed it kept crashing my Poser & Bryce! So after some good advice from renderosity members I smoothed out the mesh and created the Illusion with both a texturemap & a bumpmap so it went from 89,000 kb or larger to the fixed file that looked as good at a smaller 4,442kb .

Great work and realy nice props, but... not realy usefull, I think. Because it still to big (4.5Mb in obj).

  1. The sword is NOT a principal element of the Poser scene.
  2. The 60-80% of handle closed by the hand part of figure.
    I think, the sword props must be 0.2-1Mb in obj format and not more than 3000-4000 faces.
    Sorry for my english.

Kick-Ass!!! Oh yeah, I think the sword was for two hands as well.

It looks gorgeous, but yes, it should be a true two-hand, not a bastard. Best view of the grip? Conan limbering up after Valeria brings him back from the dead.
