Cybuster's Discutter (Possession Mode) 3D weapon

More of the Cybuster's Discutter from the Masoukishin (Lord of Elemental) franchise, part of the Super Robot Wars Original Generation Saga owned by BANPRESTO and Bandai Namco Games. These are images of the weapon that I modeled and rendered including texture made in Adobe Photoshop CS5:

Few model shots of the Cybuster's Discutter in Possession Mode

In today's post, this is the latest 3D work that I have been working on and it's the sword model called "Discutter", a weapon used by the Masoukishin of Wind, Cybuster piloted by Masaki Andoh from Super Robot Wars OG Saga Lord of Elementals (Masoukishin in Japanese) owned by Banpresto and Bandai Namco Games. This sword is in its Possession Mode after calling upon the spirit of wind, Cyfis. The modeling was a big challenge and I had to look for references of the weapon which it's not easy to find. So, I used whatever references I could find to model its shape, form, and size. Here are some images of the models as shown below:

   The model is almost set and needs some final touching before rendering. Hope you all like my work.
