This is my first stab (that would have been punny if this were a sword and not an axe) at an orthographic sketch. You’d normally use these as a reference when making 3D models, for the shape, and also for the 2D textures. It was supposed to be a steampunk aztec axe, in line with my other post, but I found it hard to add any kind of steampunk element to it, aside from the odd dangling telephone wire in the back. I was initially thinking of using this as a reference for learning 3D modeling, but I think I’d better stick to something far simpler first, with less decorative elements in it.
