Knife “Valkyrie: Wing of Battle”

I started by modeling the blade’s shape in Blender, using modifiers to achieve smooth curves and sharp edges that emphasize the harsh Viking aesthetic. The handle was crafted separately, with ornamental patterns resembling Valkyrie wings. After optimizing the mesh and checking the topology, I transferred the model into Substance Painter, where I created the materials: the cold gleam of tempered steel for the blade and dark wood with metallic inlays for the handle. Final touches included patina and subtle battle-worn marks, making the knife look like an artifact from myth.
