SVI Infinity gun model

Samio · Post by **Samio** » Wed Aug 04, 2004 4:01 pm

This is my second model ever (after the over tesselated dual ingrams

) It's just a whip so i could change whatever you guys think is wrong with it. I also have a question, how do i get the barrel to be in the gun to make it look like its hollow where the bullet exits from the gun? hope you guys like it

hey, it looks nice, but it seems a little too round to me. I mean, real guns are a little more boxy ya know? also, the barrels and handles etc need some texture. THats too smooth

other then that, good work! I'm interested to see how it turns out!

defentally move the shell port thing on the top they dont fly out there if they did thats a really short barell
just move that back 2 about where the grip is

thanks for your tips, i realized it was a bit too smooth but when i assign smoothing groups, no matter what number i assign it it always looks the same, is there something im doing wrong?

I made it a bit more "boxy" by finally learning the ways of the chamfer tool

, i fixed it up a bit including textures and what you guys suggested, hope you like it

It looks really nice. I love the grey colorls, but the handle still seems a littl off to me. Chamfer tool eh? man is there so much i have to learn about max!

lol

peace

Thanks guys, again i fixed what you guys said was wrong but im having trouble making the ejection port look good and i dont even know where to start on the back

, if someone could make me a video tutorial on how to make a nice ejection port and some stuff on the back of the gun i would really appreciate it, i made the handle look more like a handle and thats just about it, the second pic is my feeble attempt at an ejection port

, Tell me what you think

, oh yea and silverstone i was thinking of putting a grip that fits with your fingers on it but it was gonne be too far from the actual gun, im gonna add something to the handle later on to make it look better and have some detail on it.

the ejection port needs to stick off the side a little. then, on the handle, just model in some finger indents.

I really like the texture
