The Battle Shovel is a mod that replace the Gigas Axe. My 1st objective here is to train myself to modeling and texturing.
Because I don't want to train myself without doing something, I thought creating a funny weapon should be a good idea. If you like stupid thing like me and want this shovel to be adapted to another melee class, find my contact below.
Because it's more of a funny mod, if you make screenshot with it, feel free to send me them, it would make me happy !
V1.1 : Many minor changes on the weapon as I learned a lot in modeling and texturing. Theres is no big changes as I want to keep this the way it is. So what's new on this :
Model : Finished the ornament on the bottom that I didn't know how to make with good shaders. The charachter now grip the shovel on the wood and not the metal part. The shovel is a bit larger too.
Shaders : Spike on the shovel are more like real spike now. The entirer shovel head has been changed and is now more rounded on many parts, it literally mean we can't see all polygons on it.
Bottom part has been reworked as the model and grip is now more round.
Textures : Added a real specular map on this. I didn't know how to make a descent specular map so it was the diffuse map on this. Rust is basically not reflecting light while metal parts do it. I changed the grip part to be darker with less grudge.
Wood veins was affecting the grip, it has been fixed.
