WW1 Stick Grenade - Stielhandgranate (M17)



WW1 Stick Grenade - Stielhandgranate
Stielhandgranate is the German term for "stick hand grenade" and generally refers to a prominent series of World War I and World War II–era German stick grenade designs, distinguished by their long wooden handles, pull cord arming and cylindrical warheads. 
The first models were intoduced by the Imperial German Army during World War I and the final design was introduced during World War II by the German Wehrmacht



I took M17 Stielhandgranate - "potato masher" WW1 grenade as a reference material. Probably not very historically accurate, but i guess they were not strictly uniform anyways, since i saw many handle variants, many wood types and etc.


This model was created in roughly 5 hours, plus rendering. All the modeling and texturing is made by myself. Full GameReady asset creation pipeline: reference photos, low poly, UV unwrapping, sculpting, baking, texturing. End result is 2907 faces and 4k textures
