Hey, just what the title said.
How could I find an artist that accept to make a sword for G8 ? I have a picture of wanted visuals, it's nothing fancy, something that somewhat looks like what you can find in Skyrim, but I can't find no product that suits my need.

Do you have a picture, then we might be able to find something similar.
It's slightly off-topic, but I'm glad to see you again Tyra! I was worried about you guys after all the fires a while back. If you need a specific sword for a single image or such, send me a message on dA.
That sort of sword, large blade, not short, not too long, for one hand but with a longer grip. (ignore 2nd sword not being straight, it's supposed to be straight.)
Thanks :)
Have you looked at the Highland Folk Armoury The Highland Folk Armoury for Genesis 9, 8, and 8.1 | Daz 3D not as detailed as the one in your image but using "scale" dail would take it to a short sword.
Shire Folk weapons The Shire Folk Armoury for Genesis 9, 8, and 8.1 | Daz 3D
I quickly modelled a shape in Carrara as per the image you posted and put the OBJ file in the zip for you if it's any good.
You can just use the image you have above to texture it and add some bump... or do nothing at all with it but experiment
Thanks a lot for your work, much appreciated.
For simple props as this you can also try Meshy. It's free.

Seems I need to pay to download obj result from Meshy, but I may miss something !
Yes you're right, sorry. Needs a subscription plan to download new generated models. However it's quite cheap and in one month you can generate quite a lot of models. Unless you're searching for exclusively free.
No, it's good, it's cheap you're right :)
Thanks !
Sorry, I have to correct myself, the download is free if you select the "Meshy 6 Lite" engine, otherwise you need a plan. I'm new to this myself so no much experience. The result can be quadified and textured, to preserve the textures it's better saved as fbx. My tests are not bad considering it's from a single image, but not high quality enough for a serious production. Lots of fun though.
p.s. Note that the licence for the free plan must be CCBY, but you're not forced to publish so can keep the model just for yourself.
