KA-BAR Knife
This is just my first try at creating game-ready objects. The goal was to create an antique KA-BAR knife with traces of use on the blade and handle. Create PBR textures from the high-poly model. And all this from scratch. I complete all pipeline steps, from modeling highpoly and lowpoly mesh to UV-unwrapping it and creating textures in Substance 3D Painter by myself. And using the marmoset toolbag, I made a 3D view for the browser. Thanks, CG Masters, for the wonderful tutorial - Combat Knife Game Asset! And especially Chris Plush!

I have done all steps from low-poly to high-poly, including UW-unwarp, baking, and texturing.
Another one is low-poly mesh, low-poly textured mesh, and high-poly mesh that is used to generate textures.
Finally, my workflow came to 3D space, and now I can make 3D previews in Marmoset Toolbag.

Here I bake a normal map directly in Blender for learning purposes.
Here I create textures in Substance Painter. I really like this program, even though I use it for the first time.
