3D Models


Making a Kukri Dagger 


I found a reference for a simple Kukri in google and use it as base for my model, and started working on the Kukri dagger weapons for the Game Jam.


First I created the main model using Maya


Then i created the high poly version in maya so that i use it for the baking process


I sent the dagger to see the opinion of my team.

I then went back and did some reaserch of symbols that I can apply to the weapon to make it better.

I found an alphabeth called Ge'ez script


This was the anicent version of the Ethiopian scripture

I tried obtaining some old scripture to use as symbols for the weapon


I found out that the amharic scripture derivates from the Ethiopiac scripture


I will use this letters to upgrade all my weapons texture and make them even better.

Weapons


The kukri has now a name tag to make it belong to the character.


I updated all my swords to suits effects, the cursed sword have a matching design to the final sword.


The demonic sword had to be changed from red to purple to match the evil spirit.


Sandals


I quickly created a pair of sandals for the main character using some reference that i found in google.

I made one, made sure to have it UV mapped then mirrored to have another one.



Then i made some simple texture for the sandals.




Bow



Stalactite

I quickly created a stalactite for the cave level, this is supposed a statich mesh that will fall and distrupt the player.





The Statue

Make Big statue for temple

To archive this task i followed the guidelines that were made for the enemy statue head


I found a free female head asset in sketchfab and downloaded it to match the character in the concept


I started sorting out with creating my model in Maya


and then applied a simple texture


How it appears in the game
