The Dagger Part 1

 For the third test of realism versus stylised, I've jumped back to where I got the best looking results; Sea Of Thieves. This time however, I'm tackling something a lot less volitile, and a lot less explosive. This time I've modeled the dagger the pirates use when voting for a voyage. The simple dagger is quite small but is used a lot, every pirate on the seas has one in the game, but can only use them for voting (or an emote if you want one). I chose the dagger because although it's small, it has a decent amount of textures; metal, wood, leather, and stone. The handle of the blade is made of wood, yet is wrapped up in leather, which I have yet to properly attempt with hand painting.

I have added my own style to the leather, and included a small chip into the blade's edge to give it a more used look. I am exited to see how the blade comes out in both styles as the gunpowder barrel looked pleasing in realistic and stylised texturing.
