How to paint SWORDS!

Using basic, default brushes in any program you can draw some really cool swords! This is another metal tutorial BUT it's also going to be in the future weapon tutorial playlist. I plan on making more sword and dagger tutorials for illustrators, both realistic and stylized.
Now that we've finished the basics of metal textures, visual behaviors, lighting, etc we'll be able to tackle more advanced shapes and opbjects.
If you're at all stuck or confused on what I did or how I got to a certain step, feel free to go back and watch my how to paint metal playlist. I make these tutorials so they can be practiced and used in ANY digital art app.
I recorded this sword tutorial live over on my livestream (twitch) so if you'd like to see a tutorial live, ask questions, or even make suggestions for future tutorials, feel free to come by the stream!
