Alright, my goal when I started modeling was to model, texture, and get a great Energy Sword. So here is where I would like to have some tips on how to model it, properly texture it, and get it to have its properties (not lunge). Here are a few things I would especially like to know:
1.) The sword is slightly transparent, translucent. How would I make it see-through? 2.) The sword constantly has an aura and sparks emitting from it. How would I go about animating the sparks and cause the "aura?" 3.) How would I get that neon texture and "flowing" look that washes over the sword? I would really appreciate the help. Don't expect results too soon, but you'll see it eventually. |
