Texturing is my biggest weakness so I decided to create this stylised sword in order to improve my texturing. I created the concept myself, which was a lot of fun. Hand painting is in my opinion the best way to improve your texturing because it forces you to attempt to understand how lighting reacts to different objects and how shadows are created etc. I've decided that from now on I' going to hand paint all of my models to improve my texturing. I've also decided that I'm going to create the concepts for all my models myself as I feel more accomplished and 2D carries over to 3D. I also enjoy drawing so that's a plus. Lastly I understand that this is far from the best hand painted texture out there but I have a desire to constantly improve and so I will.
