Here I decided to take it a step further and make it look like a game menu - the way it could appear in a game.

Here I decided to recreate a kind of scene to try and capture the atmosphere I imagine for this model.

P.S. The props in the background are from Quixel.

I think I’ll be moving on to renders soon.

Here, I'm showcasing the size of the weapon itself. The character will not be included in the final render.

I think it turned out quite interesting. I might add something and make some adjustments in ZBrush, then I'll start optimizing the model.

Conceptually, I’ve always liked the idea of a post-apocalyptic world without light, where everyday items no longer exist. In such a world, everything a person needs must be scavenged and created by hand.
As the foundation, I took a concept from a game, which I believe fits perfectly for this kind of world. The main element is a machete, crafted from available materials. I also plan to add my own elements and may adjust some details based on logic, but the machete concept will remain unchanged.

Since this is the last post, I just want to say thanks for the opportunity to take part in this challenge. It was my first time being a part of something like this. Hope you’ll like the final renders.
