During and after GDC I received some really great feedback on my texture skills. Needless to say I need to spend a lot more time and give more attention to them. To do so, I began working on a sword. I was having fun working on it but after having another one of my pieces painted over by a professional artist, I realized that I need to push myself much harder and demand more detail and subtle nuances to sell my work. Thanks to everyone who gave me critique and pushed me to work harder. I'll have more updates to come but I was excited to show what I have improved on so far.
