    It's a good start, you should keep refining the model.

    I've done a bit of 3D modeling, so I'm interested in seeing the model wireframe or without textures

    I like the model.

    in my opinion should now direct your attention to texture work, a good texture can prop up a model.

    However, how would this be diferent from the tomahawks?

    I disagree, I think the model needs more work. The blade is a pretty narrow triangle and the handle is substantiallly longer than the blade. The handle is also really boxy, which looks un-ergonomic. The extra bit at the bottom of the grip looks like it would make throwing impossible.

    All of these are easy fixes, which is why I suggested a bit of refinement before commiting to a texture (because this is Maya and uv unwrapping is a pain in the ***)

    I assume the goal is to make it resemble a shuriken thinguies all the naruto kids talk about so the shape is as intended I believe

    Now the flaming throwing knife from call of duty is where it’s at.

    heck no, not some anime garbage. im talking about a throwing knife. and also, it would be similar to the tomahawk but more striaght and focused, also weaker since it is smaller. it would do 50 damage per hit, but the head does 101. so chrono, how will I make it better? delete the edge? I want a good handle

    This is the least cringe throwing knife I could find: https://images.app.goo.gl/CHNFFhDdxYJELUjr7

    Notice how the blade has a mostly straight back, with a curved edge. Also see that the end of the handle is smooth so that it doesn't get caught on anything as it's thrown

    i will work on it, the only reason why its bad is because i wanted it to be a sci fi looking throwing knife. so...

    ok i have more screenshots. is this good for the blade? (don't complain about the 2D looking part. idk how to fix that. i tried pushing it out but the blue cube doesen't effect it). i also added some slight design changes
