The Soulshard Dagger is a key weapon from Nythe, our dark fantasy boomer shooter set in a dying world. I handled the full 3D process for this piece — sculpting, modelling, UVs, and texturing — with a focus on capturing its cursed, corrupted energy while keeping the shapes stylised and readable in-game.
The design is based on the original 2D concept art by Mya Mitchell , used here with full credit and permission.
This was a really fun asset to bring to life, and it plays an important role in the visual identity of the project’s world, Erebryn.
