A quite quick job in MAX 7, quite atrocious looking, but that's beyond the point.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd like to have a few questions answered, mostly about improving the whip.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What I really need suggetions on is the handle design, as well as the head. Please don't make any comments about:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-How the colors look bad (I spent all of 20 seconds on them), although you can suggest an alternate color scheme if you want.

 

 

 

-The bend of the whip. I positioned it manually editing the vertices of each subdivision along the shaft, it looks artificial, I know. If I really want to continue I'll use IK, and bone structure and it will look much better.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last but not least, I'd love to have suggestions about what weapon I should actually really try to create (this whip took me 10 minutes, I would put more effort into another weapon :roll: ).

That looks really nice and clean. Maybe you can use a scorpion stinger as the tip (The simplest way to draw it would be a drop of water and bend the tip a little). The handle looks just fine as it is, but maybe you just want to work a little more detail into it, like a leather or metal wire wrap.

Try using the radiocity feature to clean up the image so that we can see it more easily on a white BG :D
