My first sword...
This is my first sword, and I don't know if it is good or not... What do you think?
Here's the sword's url:

If it could be better where is it and how could I do that?

Well, it is looking good as a start, but as you can see, it doesn't look very real. The best advice I can give you is to download a real picture
of a sword, and study what makes it look real. Notice the lighting, the reflective highlights, the gradients used to give roundness to an object, and
the different textures you see for the different surfaces. I do not know of 1 tutorial for this, this would be a combination of all your ps skills
combined, but like I said, it is your first, and for that, it looks well done

Nice sword, it's like you've been using textures... The only texture I've been used is a leather texture.
What tutorial did you use?
