Model looks good, just get the KF hands and animate it. :D
The blender hands are not rigged and I'd have no idea how to animate and what file formats to export as or anything anyway.
I can only model and texture stuff.

I thought this could somehow replace the katana model with the same animations though.

Yes, yes. We need more European weapons and less fan service weapons. ...It is beautiful.

For a second I thought this was about an explosive.

But yeah, a sword, why not. Would be great if the who-ever-codes-and-animates-it could add something "more" to the weapon to make it unique, so instead of just replacing the katana it could be its own weapon with its own pros and cons.

if you want i can throw this in the game right quicker than the flare
Fabulous.
Can you show me how so I can do it on my own so you have 1 less thing to do in the future?
I guess it involves sticking a bone called "katana" in the grip and replacing some files?

Also I'm not done yet, I'll keep adding more details to it.
It's only ~700 faces right now, there's so much more room for stuff to add...

Edit: and my skills to pick a good reference fail me yet again.
There's so much wrong with it, I'll just re-make it.
This one sucks but this one shall not fail me.

This is _exactly_ what I have wanted for a long time. A true sword to replace that piece of nippophilia. I hope you can make it in a whitelisted mutator, and I will worship the ground on which you walk.

Another set of reference pictures for a claymore, including measurements:

If it is not a model replacement but a seperate weapon, I'd recommend the same DPS as the Katane, but with slower, more damaging swings. It is listed as 3 kg of steel, and a lenght of 1.4 meters. Roughly the same as a big axe, but on the axe you have a wider seperation of hands for a quicker motion. So real slow, real deadly, please :D

Alroit lads, I re-did it now with shapes closer to what it actually looks like.

Those darn ornament things swallowed faces up like a sponge and still do not quite look right but oh well :p
Now I must dive into how to do uv texture maps properly instead of just projecting a view so it'll look good and then it's done and ready to take off some heads.

Meanwhile, enjoy the lazy version of the texture:

looks really good, like this and the flaregun, well done. Textured and modeled pretty decently.

Now, the model is absolutely beautiful, and I really hope that someone will see it ingame.

Claymore is a nice animated series.Claymore http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Installing_Japanese_character_sets is a dark fantasy manga series written and illustrated by Norihiro Yagi. The series initially premiered .In a world rife with deadly creatures called "youma", a young silver eyed woman, Clare, works on behalf of an organisation that trains female youma halfbreeds into warriors with the ability to destroy these creatures. Considered a rogue for picking up a stray child & almost losing herself to her youma side by "Awakening", she is constantly assigned rather dangerous missions...
