Brass Vine

Brass Vine is a wide rapier/saber I modeled and unwrapped in 3ds Max, I made the texture in GIMP and then applied it to the model. I went with a brass blade and earthen tones for the crossguard and hilt. I departed from my original musket/wrought iron-influenced design with the shift to the brass blade, but the brightness of the brass blade will make it easier to see the sword in a nighttime or darker environment.
