The next one was the Shield Boomerang, A ranged weapon that also doubles as a protective shield that reflects projectiles. It was another simple model to make... or so I thought. I didn't initially check the official concept art when designing the model so I didn't know the weapon itself was different. I mainly used official promotional artwork for the various games in the series (Shield Boomerang appears in all of the games except for 4)

The model was made out of a sphere that was flattened and every other vertice rotated to give it a jagged look. The centerpiece was a simple cylinder scaled down.

For the inactive Shield Boomerang model, I started with a cylinder and made another smaller one that I duplicated and moved to both ends of the big one. To make the blades at the top I created a prism and scaled the model to make them look like blades.

After some small touch ups. here are the final models.

Here are some development screenshots for the Tiny Room construction project. Everything here is a Work In Progress, and some thing might have changed between this and the final product.

I used many of the tools available in Autodesk Maya, such as the bevel tool and the combine tool, in order to create the model pictured above.

Edit: (30/3/2021) I have imported it to Unreal Engine. I had some troubles in terms of getting the room to work (my character would spawn on top of the room and not inside the room, but I fixed that by enabling Complex Collision.)
