Reference Images 2.0


Week 2:


After looking back on the images I had already collected, I felt many of the weapons were too similar in shape (i.e all swords/bladed weapons).

So I did some more research and expanded my list of weapons to model, obtaining images for various types of weapons e.g. Pole-types, Guns, Club-type and Chain-type weapons.
I feel this will work towards my final piece being a more rounded view of weapons used during Medieval Japan.
