Samurai Sword Tutorial

I’ve added a new tutorial to my site on how to ZForge a Samurai Sword :slight_smile:

If you have the demo version, you can still use this tutorial, you’ll just have to manually assemble the ZTools into a sword. I’ll be adding some more illustrations to the tutorial hopefully sometime this week. :slight_smile:

:slight_smile: Hey CDE…Very nice looking sword & a great tutorial, easy to follow. Keep’em coming! Z’ya later… :cool: Mark.

CDEdwards: Thanks loads. I asked about this a while ago. I’ll give this a try and see what I can do with it.

On a technical note… this is a confused samurai sword. :slight_smile: The kissaki (tip) curve should be on the other side. Samurai swords traditionally have round or oval tsubas (handguards). And the handle should be a bit longer. Can you tell I collect these things? :wink:

Hi CDEdwards!

Thanks for the great tutorial! It was very easy to follow and it’s a great introduction to merging objects.

Thanks everyone. :slight_smile:

Greg, I was afraid someone would point out the flaws. :wink: Once you get the hang of it, you can show us the proper way to model a Samurai sword. :slight_smile:

hey, your site is down btw, I cant access your tutorial.

I think CDE’s site has been down for some time… last I heard of him, he captured by some robotic creations of his, or something… :confused: :wink:
