Akrafena

This is a hero asset sword I created for our third year team game, our game is set in an Afrofuturistic landscape so this sword is based of a traditional Ashanti weapon, the Akrafena. This Akrafena I made for the game is a futuristic version of the traditional sword made to fit into the art direction of our game. I used Maya to model the sword and I then took in into zbrush to add some damage and some slightly stylized chips to the weapon. I then baked the high poly onto the low poly in marmoset and textured it in substance painter.
