Gandiva Project

3D Model

Agni, the God of fire, wanted to devour the forest of Khandavaprastha, to regain his power and splendour. He had enlisted the help of the two heroes, Krishna and Arjuna. Arjuna was one of the best and greatest archer of all time, and demanded from Agni a bow which would suit his strength, skill and the power of celestial weapons.

Agni provided the heroes with the desired weapons. He gave the Gandiva bow to Arjuna, as well as two quivers which would provide an inexhaustible number of arrows.

The weapon was dreaded by many during the Kurukshetra war, having defeated and killed many great warriors and the gods themselves . So I decided to make it myself by using Autodesk maya, Mudbox.
