Gun model

[Cytrix]

Hey guys,

I'm modeling an M4 for an future mod of mine, But I have a question,
Does someone know how much polygons a gun can be approxemiatly
I'm know on 2000, pretty high I think but someone told me around 2000 should be fine but I need more answers to be sure

Thnx a lot

If it's a rifle, I would say go for 2500-3000 polys.

Do I have to model the parts that you don't see first person?
I think not.

obviously not. but keep in mind what animation will the weapon be given. it seems stupid, but keep in mind what will the model do and STICK TO IT. or you're fu'ored in no time
