My first model. Has 4306 polygons. MAde with this tutorial from scratch:http://psychokillax.tripod.com/html/weaponmodeling.html
I added the scope and handle so here you go.

Tell ME what you think.
oh yeah i can post the model if you want it. It isnt skinned
The pics are poor quality because of jpg and geforce fx 5200.

ya the pics r just a little blurry but it looks good
the black makes it look kinda plain and u cant see the details well so when the texture comes out im sure it will look really good

Thanks. Im looking for a tutorial for how to skin. But i havent figured out how to unwrap the uvw in gmax. So im looking for a tutorial with how to skin with gmax

HoboRockAssassin · Post by **HoboRockAssassin** » Tue Jun 29, 2004 5:23 pm

if u did this in gmax then how did u use that tut
its for 3dsmax

and sry i dont know how to skin with that either

Gmax is just a stripped down version of 3dsmax. It had all the features in that tutorial just some options and things were in different places. Like the uvwunwrap feature. I just found it.

i will post a pic of the gun with the reference model skin on it. I didnt take time to skin the stock that i added(the one in back) or the scope so their just black. I will post a pic of it without being rendered. Then i will go use xzzy's stuff to try to make a render in gmax.

Actually Im gonna go skin it better

thats a good first model. well done

Trkle_II · Post by **Trkle_II** » Wed Jun 30, 2004 6:10 am

Found out I suck at skinning.

I use the gimp(because its free!) and i'm not very good at making the metal because im not sure how to blend the colors. If i just extract one color from the barrel and paint it looks like crap. So i have decided to just leave it how it is(and keep it forever because its my first model). I'm gonna go do some new models(because i thought modelling was fun)!! Check out my new models when they come out!

great model in my opinion i wuld straighten the part where the scope joins the gun and work w/ the butt of the stock to add more demension to the back of the rifle....but still very good

Trkle_II · Post by **Trkle_II** » Wed Jun 30, 2004 11:00 am

Thanks Guys! I will do some of the things you suggested in my next model! Anyaways I made a crappy render using the yafray exporter for gmax! Thanks Xzzy! It was my first succesful render and i was getting so fed up i didnt make another one. This one shows more of the detail just it looks kindof weird

I told ya... kind of weird. Comments are welcome but i wont be updating this model anymore. I liked doing the model i just wasn't that into the gun. Maybe I'd be better at vehicles. Anyways im working on a hummer h2. I dont know why. Will probably never do nothing with it but look at it and go ooooh aaaaaaawwwwww i made that

Trkle_II · Post by **Trkle_II** » Wed Jun 30, 2004 4:03 pm

Heres another render i was able to get

Nice for a first, very nice
