Roman Sword Gladius and Shield Scutum Low Poly 3D Model Low-poly 3D model

Models have been modeled in Blender 3.2, textured in Substance 3D Painter, and rendered in Cycles. Both models are low poly, game-ready models. In files, you will find two Blender files. One contains (JuliosCesarSword_ForCGTrader_AllTogether.blend) all models (Blockout, High Poly model, the low poly model with separate parts and low poly all parts jointed model) and the second one contains only the low poly all parts jointed models, the second file has been created for the ease of download (has a size of around 9Mb). The file which contains all models has a size of around 1Gb (because of high poly models). The Turn table at images has been downloaded from CGTrader (It is a nice model of Brian Rocz, https://www.cgtrader.com/rocz3d).

For both models, real sizes tried to be used. The length of the sword is 70.7 cm (The real one, the length of the sword (Gladius) of Julius Caesar was 71 cm), and the length and width of the Scutum (Shield) were taken from Scutum from Dura-Europos, the original has a length of 105 cm and width of 41 cm, the modeled one has a length of 100 cm and width of around 45 cm.

The other formats have been exported from Blender 3.2, in case of any problem in any file format, please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to solve any kind of problem (if any) about the model and/or file formats.
