About this image

1H (sword based) umbrella that will be in the next Handbag Addicts release (no promises on when that may be--other things need to be done first).

Had to bust out the NURBS on this one. I've never been a big fan of NURBS--as it tends to be more of an exercise of "hit and miss" (NURBS control me more than I control them). In fact, I had crafted a handbag with NURBS, but it turned out to be such as "blobby eyesore," I decided to not include it. Such has been my history with NURBS--promise of saving big in polygons (even after conversion to a mesh), but rarely do I get what I envision. Of course, I'm hardly a pro--as if my "never met a polygon I didn't love" meshes didn't prove that already. =P

Still need some texture tweaking, and move on to the next item . . .
