[ukfilmer]

this is not for ingame obviously with 21288 tris (i was never aiming for ingame) :rolling: don't ask me! lol
whaddya think for a 1st try?
took like 2-3 hours

wow.... for a first try? i take it you must model alot tho, just not weapons. You could lose a few polys on the grip... looks v.nice, good job :cheers:

 

[Recoil]

Woah, first weapon model? Looks friggin great!

 

[ukfilmer]

i've been doing 3d stuff for like 3-4 months or so. this was first gun model though

 

[ukfilmer]

eddie! you're from oxford, where abouts dude? i'm in abingdon

 

[Ames]

Nice first model. Put more polys into the other parts of the gun. Looks a little blocky there.

 

[eddie500]

yeah, as i told you yesterday, the stock is waaayy too square, need to round it off, and change the smoothing around the front. the front of the grip is square cut if i remember correctly.

 

[ukfilmer]

smoothing in maya is all fooked, i don't understand it one bit.

Very nice work.

 

[Adrien C]

Are you on any MOD at the moment?

 

[Fletch]

Nice model. Try and make the rings on the handle the same distances throughout though - from bout the ninth one up from the front, the gaps kinda get bigger for a bit from what i can see.

You might wanna give it an M203 too if you want to work on it some more :naughty:

just looking again, that first render is really cool. the bar at the top and the slight fuzziness of the black and white pictures, makes it look like a wierd photocopy.

...i guess thats just uk's (artistic) talent poking in there hehe

 

[ukfilmer]

lol, didn't check this for a while. adrien c i work on 5 mods. lol. and i don't weapon model for any of them and don't plan to. thanks for the crits

wow thats amazing
I took like a week to make a cube :rolling:

 

[Shinobi]

ukfilmer, you need to grab groups of edges and smooth them


a quick fix that will need fixing up is to select all the edges then use soften/harden tool extesion then set the angle threshold to about 45 or so,, this will fix the blatant smoothing problems, but you'll still need to do considerable editing yourself

 

[ukfilmer]

bah, i give up weapon modeling.

 

[Dalith]

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

 

[ukfilmer]

i have patience, WEAPON modeling is BORING!
