Colt V-10 Compact - lotsa pics (56k warning)

UDATE: Holy moly I went a little crazy, hehe. Thanks to SnaFuBar for the inspiration lol. He suggested the guttersnipe sights, silencer and red dot sight. The muzzle break was all me though, lol. Lotsa pics guys, sorry.

Hey. Working on this for like 3 days. I took lotsa pics, I couldn't help it. I went a little higher poly then usual. 1372 polies. I haven't cleaned it up yet. And the clip/bullets are just a place holder for now. I just wanted to post what I've got, then I'll update when the clips done.

yup nice indeed

Dude, no way that is only 1372. You are the master of poly conservation

Nice job.

Barrel seems just a tiny bit too short. Otherwise, that is one of the best models I've seen in a long time.

Very nice job on the hammer system and interior designing. However, the grip looks a little strange.

I have never seen the interior of a weapon modeled. Awesome modeling Leiukemia.

your models are really nice, especially since you started only a short time ago. good job and hpe to see even better models.

Thanks for the comments guys. About the barrel, it's a compact so it's supposed to be short. I made it the same size as the referance. And about the handle, do you mean strange as in I did it wrong, or just a strange handle in general? Hehe a short time ago, try about 9 months. I just joined halomods a short time ago.

2 things:

I still cannot believe that is only 1372. You are the God of poly conservation... the democrats can't even conserve as good as that

And...

Did you use boolean at all? And if not, how did go about doing, for example, the whole in the hammer, just model around it and weld vertices back on the other side?

I hope so. Anything other than plane modeling the hammer would have been stupid.

haha thanks, I'm not the greatest conserver, lots of people are still better then me. And NO, NO NO NO, BOOLIAN IS EVIL. lol. For the hammer, I just put vertices around the hole with a plane, and made like a C shape. Then I welded the vertices at each end on the "C" together.

Double post... UPDATES AT THE TOP!

SnaFuBAR · Post by **SnaFuBAR** » Fri Jan 12, 2007 1:45 am

updates are looking good. love the silencer, guttersnipe and red dot. we'll think of more later for you to model

Can we see a wireframe?

{D · Post by {D » Fri Jan 12, 2007 6:35 am

I like the model, it looks great.

Red dot sight + silencer FTW.

Could you get renders w/o transparent backgrounds? It kinda pixelates the edges.

Another question about booleaning (or not booleaning in this case, I'm trying to learn how), on the red dot side, on the sides there are all those wholes, how did you get them all symetrical? Mirror, attatch, vertice weld?
