SHIN DRAGONSLAYER!
Added 2023-10-01 16:16:50 +0000 UTCOne of the assets I lost was my recent Dragonslayer (more commonly known as the Rail With a Handle) sword shader. Although there are shots where the sword is 2D and stylized I needed a more detailed version in a few other cases (such as the Guillotine (or GoPro on a sword) shot you've seen in the trailer.
This time Uluncha remodelled the whole of the sword for me and I tried recreating my lost shader. The key design element I took from the Sword of Berserk game (cool game, amazing soundtrack by maestro Hirasawa himself).
Specifically from a the game's opening video because in the gameplay the sword has a more typical black middle part with a straight contrasting edge separating it from the metal blades. BUT! In that opening video the black middle transitions into the grey metal smoothly, with no edge line, as if the metal just darkened to the middle.
I think this is more fitting to the 'hip of raw iron' quality of our phallic symbol here.
This should fit in with the shots of the previous version but also a big part of why now I accepted losing my files. I do not like making things forever but there were a few shots I wasn't 100% happy with so I am treating this as an opportunity!
I did loose a few scenes I was 99% happy with so those have to lvl-up now. I already have my ideas.
Thank you!

i like it raw
2023-10-06 20:38:59 +0000 UTCI never owned a proper platform in my life other than the Dendy which was a popular in my country Sega (I think) knock off! I emulated this game on my PC with redream. Not the most convinient emulator considering if you use it for free you can have ONE save per game or at all. But that game is rather enjoyable even on a keyboard! And I believe late Miura Kentaro contributed to the story?

He is not like ordinary men, for he carries the Dragon Slayer—a mighty blade of retribution, whose fury knows no equal. His enemies will know true fear, once he starts to swing.” I saw the turnaround on Instagram, I love how it glimmers and shines! Sword of the Berserk is a game i wish i could play, would need to get a Dreamcast first, then get good at playing video games haha. I appreciate all the updates and model showcases. I’ve been looking at the sky more and more recently, it’s never been more vivid blue.
