Description
Well, what can I say... it's just a shuriken model...
Not a copy of any existing shuriken type/model, sort of my own desing.
Looks kinda too old though...
...
Modeled in 3dsmax4, rendered with V-Ray.

There are no lights. Just a hdri image as a lighting source

Wow, man. Those look so awesome and sharp. The only complaint I would have is the strange warping of the lower one which takes away its symmetry. =o But otherwise it's so convincing.

Thanks!
I guess camera distortion does that warping.

Nice shuriken you got there. Try to render it with vray demo plugin and use a hdri image a lighting source.

Woooow! I'm really impressed! How long did you work on it and how is it made(build with faces or just created with primitives etc. )?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It didn't take long at all. Modeling - 45 minutes, materials/textures - 1 hour and rendering/setup - 2 or 3 hours...
It's simple poly-modeling.

What is V-Ray?
is it like an external renderer or a plugin or what?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, it is a plugin for 3dsmax. You can get it at [link]

np.
after i finished my 3d katana i planed on doing some shorikans...and, then... i came across with your image so for a while im puting the project a side
(ill be more then happy if you visit gallery, i need some pro's critiques)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No need to put your project aside... very good looking katana you've got there. Very well done model and textures and in my opinion it's pretty much finished. Only thing I would suggest, that you use a little more glossiness subdivisions on the sharpened part of the blade, it looks a bit too grainy... (unless you used noise map there) Other than that it's perfect!
I like it even more than my shurikens.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, i used bumpmap for the sharpend part of the blade ( all in 1 shader... the material react to a p.o.v ray direction - for a video render so it will be darker or brighter then the steel itself... i worked on that material about 2-3 weeks, created like 6 diffrend steel shaders )
most off all, thank you very much, means alot to me

No problem...
btw, my bad... I thought you were using v-ray...
Keep up the good work!

wow like the materials u applyed to them
they look so real
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I love the DoF, and intricate details with the dragon carvings (V-Ray displacement, or just bump map?).
VERY good quality textures, I love the used/worn look, you are obviously a pro with multiple texture layers. Ohh yeah, V-Ray rocks, I love it.
Keep up the good work.

Yes, there were several textures... the usual ones, like specular, bump, diffuse, reflection and glossiness. No displacement though. Vray is a good one indeed...

Mmmm...Shuriken..Yummy.
I like this. Alot.

man, you wouldnt belive they actually make shurikens very similar to that, in fact when i was 15, they where the first style i bought. the one i have is slightly more curved.
btw, nice render. ive got to spend some time in maya when i get my other priorities out of the way.

Yeah, I kinda like that design myself. I modeled the whole set of 'em, but this is the one I decided to texture and render...

omg the touch of blood rust makes it incredibly realistic, how do you do it +_+;
