Here is process for hilt. I didn't have a concept and never did a tiger before so drawing on the basic shape lets me figure out the basic shape without getting caught up in sculpting.

yeah, I plan to bake them later. I think the shell eject holes look a bit too elliptical on both sides. Take the mesh into zbrush or do subD modeling for the high poly or something.

I've noticed if you zremesh in the middle (or redynamesh a duplicate subtool) and project the details onto that new one, you can drop the polycount a lot while retaining the same level of detail. Since it evens out all the super-squished verts you used to get sharp edges. The polycount for the hilt went from 3mil -> 700k from that alone
