Working on it.  It's not really an ax, it's more of a hatchet.  I don't think plastic toys are strong enough to hold axes.

Fixed that ugly head. Gave it more shape. Made the part for prying stuff open thinner.


That is an awesome axe. Nice shading on the handle.


hey, can I axe you a question?


Smoothshading isnt bad.

Smoothshading isnt bad.

It is when it comes to rounded edges in Blockland like the end of that ax.

it seems now that people know how to use smoothing groups and splits, they use them all the time. it doesn't make every model look good


Smoothing groups are great when you have to cover up some massive triangulation.
But anyway, technique doesn't make the model, so even though you know all the tricks but you are lacking the sight and the good judgement, you will be more likely to miss.
