A small texturing contest

[Danijel]

Ok, before anything if this is in the wrong section, then move it please.

Me and Red Fox wanted to go for a small contest of texturing a weapon.
He made a sword model and each of us had to texture it the way he knows.
Here are the swords:

Texture by Red Fox:

Textured by Baron of Dusk (me):

(If you look closely on mine, you can see that glass on the table reflects the sword a bit. that is because of my damn renderer )


So people vote in poll and post of why do you think who's is better.

I personally think that Red Fox's was done a little better, and the end of yours looks a wee bit choppy. Or did you intend to make it look rusty?

 

[Danijel]

Yeah I noticed that too. That sometimes occurs on my program when a model has a lot of triangular polygons and then it gets a weird texture on some places.

I like Red Fox's because the lighting and contrast seems to be better.

I like Baron of Dusk's.

I like the lighting, and there are smalls patchs of light shining on the handle and such.

Though I do like the refletion in the glass table of Red Fox's.

Red Fox was slightly done better due to the lighting and shadow. I must say that I do like how you did your guard though. It actually looks a bit realistic due to the small lighting and the subtle hint of reflection.

Sorry but Red Fox's get's my vote....the whole atmosphere and texture quality seem better.

I'm gunna have to say Red Fox's as it is more visable
