It was much thinner before, so I resized it to the reference pictures I have so it's pretty accurate to those at least, will see when I'm done with whole gun first. :p @SillyBilly For about 2hours.

Working on a Desert Eagle. Using the same technique as IchI on his VTM's. Is this a good start? Maybe too many polygons wasted. :|

Looks ok, how many triangles so far?

Just put the skylight wherever you want on the scene. Don't forget to add an omni to make it look better! If you use the mental ray render you need to put Final Gather on. If you use 3dsmaxs render put lighttracer on in advanced lightning.

Thanks mate! Looking forward to the upcoming VTMs :p

Actually, I moved on to 3dsmax 6 instead of XSI so I left it to rotten. :( That sword was my first model, I was so proud.

Me? I've started modelling for the first time in may, then I've just modelled when I had time. This must be my hmm, 12th model ever. Why? Is it really that good? :naughty:

Could someone explain to me more about smoothing groups, so I really know which ones to add to same group because I don't get it. :( Anyways, here's what I got. I haven't optimized it yet or added any smoothgroups.

ankalar, the same ankalar that made lots of skins on csnation.net? awesome!

Using 3dsmax? Maybe you locked your object with spacebar. I got used to deselect objects in XSI and used it in 3dsmax and went nuts!! If there's a fast way to deselect objects in a flash please tell me. :p BTW, great VTM's IchI, I've done some from it so far I'll continue when I get home...

I think I'm done now, please ignore the messed up shadows on the 3rd render. Anyways, here they are: Wireframe: Does that look better IchI? :x Reference Pictures: PS: If anyone knows how to fix that shadow problem, let me know!

Entry #5 Here's my contribution, it's not great. But I'm satisfied.

One very important thing you need when you start with modelling, is patience!

@Sidewinder Hehe, thanks. I thought the polycount was too low, lol. I changed it to editable mesh and now it's 1866, sounds more right to me! And how do I turn up the AA? @IchI Dear IchI, thank you. I've been waiting for Munro to put up your VTM for over 2weeks or something now. So I...

Hiya! I would like to introduce you my first gun weapon ever made in 3dsmax 6 (awesome program btw). This is also my first low poly model. It's 839polygons. (I've learned to never use boolean again) I feel like I'm making progress now, and I love it. :afro: Expect more models from me...

That's nice of you Pendragon. :D Talked to him yet?

Like I said, I remade the model, this one is 4k polys. :P

Thanks Rogue, just hang in there. That's what I did and look were it got me. :p Anyways, I think I finished the model, this is what I got so far: I tried to do a nice render, but I suck at it:

Bah, my fingers started to itch, I wanted to modell so bad so I started over, going for more detailed now. :) (This is how it looks so far, ignore the hole between the 3 edges :D)

*Confused* Anyways, I put this aside and left it to die. I didn't get it as I wanted, and I have no idea what chamfer is. I know what bevel is, though. :) Anyways, couldn't someone skiss some picture up on what parts should be single objects and etc. Like the handle should be one, and maybe...
