Skyrim modding my NEW Battle Axe

[ink]

 

holy crap this has been a crazy mind wrenching task but I have done it......

OK honestly I knew I could(I can do anything I put my mind to) but at times I wanted to throw my comp across the room

I created it from scratch in Blender then I had to export it as an OBJ. file... then import it in nifscope...then...well to much to list....there is no easy way of doing it as of yet, eventually they will have a nif import for the newest blender, doing it the way I did I had to use 2 different versions of blender.....man I am a happy camper.







still not perfect the handle is to short so using the axe 2 handed the left hand does not rest on the handle...gonna try to make it one handed....also I gotta change the Blood object so it is exactly the shape of my Axe, then it will be done...and ready for public release...

I have been working on a Jurassic Island type mod which will be a whole new area full of.....dinosaur type creatures....but that is SO much more in depth then just an Axe...but damn it all I WILL do it.

thanx man...ya Blender is free... all versions of it....they just put out 2.63....but to do this, I used 2.49b and 2.61...

the new version I messed with a bit while in its beta and the way to create the meshes is much different and better.
 its quite the impressive program...the interface is not super user friendly...but once you understand the tools there really isn't anything you cant do with it.

you should check it out, I would be more then willin to help out with understanding it...also there are lots and lots of tutorials out there.
