Day 44

Today I continued working on my sword.

I added some curves to the sword with my boy Wesley's help before I move on to the handle.

Wesley was sitting beside me today and he gave me some good ideas on how to add curves to a sword.

I started by adding some curves on the blade connecting to the hilt.

Using a process I've done before I selected a few edges and then connected them to make more lines. I did this near the bottom of the blade.



After this I used the scale tool to scale one of the segments down a bit.


And this is how it turned out in the end.

TBH it looks pretty neat and I thank Wesley for the initial idea of adding curves.
After this I wanted to add some curves to the actual blade. Wesley suggested that I make it a bit wider at the top and make it curve down a bit near the bottom. So using the same process of selecting the edges and scaling them down to the desired sizes I got it to look like this:


This is all I did today and I learned that adding curves makes it looks pretty slick and neat.

I didn't learn much today I was just using skills that I've learned before and applying them to my project.

Tomorrow I will start the handle for sure because that's all I have left.
