[SKIN][VERSION 2] Realistic Assault Rifle + New Display

Hello everyone, here's my first skin (and 4th HaloPC mod).

I am releasing a new assault rifle skin. I made this because I don't like the original Assault Rifle, so I fixed it. The original Assault Rifle is too dull and doesn't have much detail on it. I fixed this by making it more shiny and brighter. I also changed the display to look more futuristic. It now has digital numbers, like an alarm clock. Everything is also white on the display, instead of blue. I also changed the little green circle near the front grip to blue, because blue looks cooler than green.

In my opinion, the new skin looks more like a real assault rifle, and less like a plastic toy. That's what I was aiming for when I made it.

VERSION 2 CHANGES:

Alright guys, I've listened to what everyone has said about it, and I have modified it slightly. I changed the multipurpose around a lot, so now you can see scratches and dents on it. Real assault rifles don't look perfect, so neither should the one in Halo. Here is a screenshot of the NEW, IMPROVED one.

Not very good.
2/10

It doesn't even look very shiney. You dissapoint me and my shiney-likeness.
The display is ok, but doesn't have much of a difference.

I like the AR's origonal display color.

Also, I have to tell you that your AR mutlipurpose is messed up. Open HMT and you'll see what I'm talking about.

The changes are subtle, but I think they are definite improvements. There is a bit more detail on the AR that could not be seen before. I also desaturated it, and messed with the cubemap a bit to make it a tad bit shinier. You've also got to admit that the blue circle looks cooler than the original green one.

Yeah, it looks pretty cool. BTW, what colour is used if you want it to be the guys color. So someone green has green display, blue for blue, etc.

6/10. it'll be an 8/10 if you fix the multipurpose and fix the reflection on the thing(i think it is reflection) and it's battle damaged not shiny. and the new hud is ok. but it's more like battle damaged than shiny to me tho.
