Gunblade V2! Its finally done ^^
Since the first time I tried 3D, I've always wanted to create the Gunblade from Final Fantasy VIII.
My first version/attempt (almost two years ago) of it was rather lowpoly and full of mistakes, so I decided to redo the whole model and properly texture it. Here ya go!

Technical difficulties
Converting the movie to a Flashfile was a disturbing process. The quality dropped (even when I sat it on max) and the whole look if it went from cold-blue to grass-green. In addition to that, the filesize also increased o_O It went from 4MB to 7MB. Making the loading time noticeable longer. I dont know why it does that however Im really sorry about it. Thats why I recommend everyone to see the gunblade in a quicktime format instead, which can be downloaded from the link above. Otherwise than that, Im happy how it turned out ^^
