the wood texture at the handel is quite weird, shouldn't it be black metal

nope that should be wood , it just looks weird because of the lighting or render i think

nice model

 

[mindless_moder]

the textures look really bland ...no weathering at all and no depth ... the wood shouldnt make such a smooth transition to the metal there should be a curve or an edge there.
as u can see here : http://www.ima-usa.com/images/MU1609-1.jpg
this is ww2 we are talking about the metal was very gritty ... and u can see obvious color variation.

just incase you didn't know, they did use the M1A1 Thompson SMG in Vietnam

Yes, that post is completely relevant to this discussion.

The model looks good.

 

[mindless_moder]

i resent that comment ...because the post was actually relevant i was trying to make a point about how the metal used in ww2 was not given the kind of finishing touches todays weaponry has as a result the metal was gritty and had a brushed look.

yes that is a very good point (all ww2 metal should be weathered), and this forum does not need snooty remarks about how relevant things are.
