Blender Sculpting - Rune Sword

We get reference images of the rune sword into our Blender file

We create the basic shape of the disk by starting out with a cylinder

We inset the disk to get the shape of the edges and lips at the front and back

We create the basic shape of the handle from a cylinder

We start with a cube and model the guard

We create the basic shape of the blade

We cut notches into the blade with the knife tool

We create the wrap for our blade by starting with an edge and applying modifiers

We take a look at Blender's Sculpt Mode and how it differs from Object Mode and Edit Mode

We learn how to remesh our meshes in order to get uniformly distributed polygon size

We learn about the Multiresolution Modifier and how we can increase the poly count for sculpting

We begin sculpting the dents and scrapes into the disk

We get some more fine details into the disk

We sculpt some cuts into the disk

We sculpt some holes and tiny dents into the disk

We begin sculpting the guard

We get more details into the guard

We add some cuts to the guard

We prepare the wrap for the sword's handle

We sculpt some details into the sword's wrap

We prepare the high-poly version of the blade for sculpting

We begin sculpting details into the blade

We continue with the details on the blade

We finish up the blade with holes and cuts

We learn how to decimate a mesh and reduce the poly count on our blade

We create the low-poly version of our sword

We prep our mesh for UV-Unwrapping

We unwrap our sword mesh and properly prepare the UVs for texturing

We wrap up the course by exporting the low and high poly meshes!

Congratulations!!!
