Hi,

This is a WIP which took me around 1 + half hours to do. I am going to skin it too but I'm not sure on how I will get the blade's glow to work, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here is a short video for a 360 view.

Looks awfully highpoly, are you planning to put it in an engine? If so you could just do 2 perpendicular planes extending out from handle bit, then use alpha and glow to make it look a bit more realistic

Yeah, it's about 3000 or so polies. I wasn't planning on putting it into any game, I could cut down on quite a few polies if I wanted to. I'm just really modelling it and a few other things for experience.
