His helmt looks really fat. Maybe you should hollow it out so around the bottom is doesnt look really thick. On the whole though i think its a great start, character modelling isnt easy at all, so great work :)

Cheers for the comments guys. I think that gun on the HL2 videos is an MP7 with an aim point on the top, although dont qoute me :P Stolve your absolutly right it would be damn hard to balance these as they are very similar. I just made them there not necessary gonna be in the mod, so we'll...

Just a quick post. Poly count is 4000 unotimzed on the standard MP5 A4 all the others are lower. All modelled by me in about 2 days. Still all wips but comments welcome. Mp5 A4 and A5 Mp5 SD6 and a Beretta Elite no reason for it. Mp5k A4 PDW and A4 Please dont...

I'll wait for the next comp i think. Just making a Santa Gun doesnt really give me the enthusiasm to go out and model one :P

Chamfer is the damn best tool around, id be lost without it. I spose it would be easy to get lost with it though. I did tutorials that included Chamfering thats how i learnt it maybe you guys need to find some tutorials. Just make sure your in editable poly with edges sub object menu...

The box and handle area are extreme boxes. Need to chamfer those edges out about smooth them out into more circular shapes.

Thats the point in bump mapping, adding tiny detail without any need for more polys. Also adds heaps of realism to models like humans. So just uvw unwrap your model. Export two copys. Paint your texture put that in the diffuse slot of the material editor in max. Paint the other one white with...

Dont know any tutorials but i can give you some hints/tips. Basically you export your texture maps like you would if you where to skin it. Paint it completly white and then paint the areas black you want bumped. White is not bumped Black is bumped. In the material editor scroll down to...

Did you even check your email ???? I did reply and told you how to do it. Heres an update, did abit of adjusting here and there and added the rails that the slide travels along. Also edited the bottom of the extended clip.

Sorry mister 100% right all the time :angel: Yeah it was a broad statement, one setting of brazil uses a 3d max skylight, but most of the time it uses its own cant remember what its called light, but thats under the skylight setting in brazil. Anyway screw brazil, if you can get the same result...

3d max has a huge amount of lighting features avaliable just play around with them all. Shadows: If you want shadows you need a light source and something for the shadow to reflec on. So make a plane lay your model on it, put in a light aiming at the model right click the light properties...

Well most famous for clay renders is brazil. Brazil uses a default 3d max skylight to get that effect. So for my G18 Glock Custom renders which is in another thread, i just chucked a skylight in and it came out looking like a brzil render. Only downside is each render took about 20 mins on...

Just bumpin this up cause i hardly ever get replies dammit :dork:

I just realised that when i posted. But o well you have to have a taclight and Aim Point then :) Dark renders, i think its your monitor man. They dont look dark to me :borg:

I made a standard Glock 18, cause they are damn fine looking weapons, and who can go past the full automatic ability :). Once done i cutomized it with a Silencer, Tactical Light, Extended Clip and Custom Aim Point System. The aimpoint was of my own design and i think it came out alright...

Thats in your own opinion though. But with the way you do it can you use the checker material to find stretching ?

The first part of my tutorial will help you out. If your still wondering http://chaos.waveartists.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=282

I can think of two options that might work :P 1. Customize - Customize User Interface - Toolbars, then im afraid your gonna have to search that massive list to find the right toolbar, sorry i have no idea what that particular tool bar is called. 2. Also if you still have Max 5 installed in...

I was actually thinking that. Well go to the library anyway, but now i hae a book to look for cheers :afro:

Yeah thats the blu print i found, but its still a bit to small. I could use it but i want to be accurate. Both suurland.com and http://www.onnovanbraam.com/ have huge blueprint collections but no good ones of the Super Stallion
