Well, here's me. Picture was taken at the top of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. What a beautiful city. I was there for a day when I took a trip to California. I had a 6 hour layover waiting for the Greyhound buss, so I decided to see the city. Just as a note: Greyhound is ok if you don't want to spend a lot of money, but I recommend flying. :-pBIOMy interest in 3d art developed from playing Final Fantasy 7. Then, those were awesome graphics and I wanted to do something like that someday. However, at the time, I just liked looking at it and didn't know that a few years later I'd be making my own. I've been using Poser4Pro and Bryce 5 for a little over 2 years now.
I may not be anywhere near as good as most of the people on here, but it's my dream to either work for Squaresoft (SquareEnix?), Dreamworks, Pixar, or own my own company some day. Keep dreaming, right? lol.
I also do very little animation. Most of which are just a few seconds long and not really interesting, but I try. I think it's a lot easier to express something in an animation than just one picture. I mean, a picture is worth a thousand words, so a 100 frame animation is worth 100,000 words, right? :-p
Thanks for viewing my profile and take care!

It dices potatoes, slices carrot, and lops limbs...it's everything you're looking for in a blade.

LOLOL, I love the comment Grimtwist made. The sword is wonderful, but isn't the actual blade a little small considering the size of the handle? The background is perfect. You did a wonderful job. Congrats!

I agree with garyandcatherine on the size of the blade. Nice job on the base and the background though,
Doublecrash
Yeah, the modelling is top-level, but I too think the blade should be longer.

Having dealt extensively with real swords, I'm afraid to say that the getup between the blade and the hilt would be very unbalancing. Ideally, the balance should rest evenly right at the user's hand or slightly behind it, usually accomplished with smaller crossbars and bigger pommel weights. The further forward the balance, the more unwieldy the blade becomes. At best, this is a decorative weapon ... for somebody who doesn't know anything about swords (like Piper). Having said that ... the modelling, lighting and texturing is excellent.
