I agree. It's very weird on the edges. They need to be rounded some more.

yeah i didn't bevel before i smoothed so it's not as smooth on the edges of the barrel and stuff.

It's more or less a box shaped like a pistol... go back and make parts round, add detail, and fix the thing up. It's your first I know, but I would give you 0.5/10 for the effort it took to trace the outline and extrude it. I could do that in like, 30 seconds...

I am not trying to be harsh, but 1/10. The model is very boxy and lacks detail. It looks like all you did was trace the picture and extrude. I would read Katarn's post here. In his post, there are 2 very simple tutorials on modeling guns.

Yeah, most speed modellers can make this in.. what, 10 seconds? :P

And yes, look for those tutorial Shadow mentioned.
