Stringed Blade of Death + Armour WIP

[mike8213]

Errrrr, havn't had any time at all here lately to do anything. I was messing in Flash the other day and came up with this weapon, so I decided to try to put it into 3d. I havn't started skinning it yet, gonna read up on how to do that later. Story behind this, the two katana's at the ends pop out from the staff via chains so it can be a staff, two katana, or a twirling weapon (i.e. twirl around with katanas popped out) If anyone can tell me how to make a more convincing peice, or how to make it look more lifelike please say. I was going to put some sort of cloth wrap around it so it could be strapped onto the back, but I dunno how to do cloth stuff. Also, I'd like to make the wrapping to go around the handle of the katana, but not sure how

lol so sorry i'm always running late, i could swear I uploaded them though. this is a WIP. i'm not super satisfied with it, because I have no idea on how to make it a better render where you can see details on the blade, mainly because you can't really see where the blade gets sharper, and i can't think of how to make the bandaged handle, or cloth strap for carrying i took so long on this because i'm trying to get the retarded comp to do the chain links for a wall pose of it, but it keeps having problems and the Autobacks that get saved has the peices of chains all over the place. there will be a story behind this weapon and armour. Glass case because I couldn't find a decent mat to use.
p.s. (not using those materials on the handle and mid parts, prob not even the sheath)
