Wardog Collective Art Test: Volt Knife

This is the result of the art test I made for The Wardog Collective this September. The task was to design a grounded sci-fi electrical knife. It’s a bladed tool capable of delivering an electrical charge along the blade.
The images show the thought process behind the design, silhouettes, thumbnails, the final design along with a different paint job, and painted over 3/4th view of the 3D model.
