My First Model And Painted Texture!

My painting skills are much better, definetly due to reading the drawing book. This is a very low poly sword. From my own concept sketch all the way to full texturing... phew! Here is a screenshot from Maya, and the texturemap which is very messy heh..





Things I need to do for next model are:

1) Fully decide on color and texture scheme during concept phase! This really slowed me down during the painting phase and made me force tiling on some of my handle texture cause I got a bit frustrated

2) Add more details to my model

3) Stack more of my UV's
