Amazing as always! You should get a job on the industry mate!

[Warlock]

Wow, that's a nice looking AK

Went with Chyros's suggestion and made an AK



Probably my most low poly gun yet, its only around 4.5k

It's amazing though, I think you captured the feel of the wood quite well too :o . In one or two places, most notably the buttstock, you can see that it's "relatively" low-poly, but everywhere else I think you made very nice, smooth curves, especially in the magazine which I swear I can't see a single poly in. You went for a good, classic model too. I love it!!

I think the wood looks a bit plasticy to be honest, although as Chyros said, the magazine is excellent. If you fix the wood plasticyness I would say its pretty perfect.

[Wizard]

I agree with Ion that there are parts of the wood that lack relief, whilst the edges seem to have some. But it's a pretty damn good model.

[TheDR]

Yay, now that you are done with the standard weapons, I'm hoping to see some creative stuff

However, that is a very good AK, it would fit right in today's latest FPS games.

[JJ]

Neat AK, I want one.

Seriously, because owning anything that looks like a gun is illegal here! D:

[Alias]

Get a wood-grain bump map happening on the stock and it'll look great.

[Pav:3d]

Wood is a pain to get right in vray for some reason (in mental ray its far easier, like on my m93r model), ill have to experiment more

Thanks for your feedback as always guys

[Mbob61]

Don't know how i managed to miss this on here.
Looking very good as always
Every modeler has to make an AK at some point

I was wondering : Which techniques do you use when modelling? Do you stick with editable polys or do you use the more advanced options like NURBS editing or Editable patches?

[Pav:3d]

I stick with editable poly, it has everything I need
Only just started to play with NURBS, and editable patch I dont really find a use for yet

[CJ]

Cheers, that's exactly what I thought
PS : Edit Patch can come in handy if you're planning to create organic objects, generally it's used when modeling characters (at least that's what the training videos I'm learning with say )

[Pav:3d]

Organic objects you say? Ive been trying to get my head round doing those, Ill have to look into it

[Ghostrider]

Pav3d that AK's incredible man! Have you applied to work anywhere for graphics design? I bet you could be making a good amount of cash for doing this stuff.

[Pav:3d]

^Not yet, need a few years more experience first

The USAS 12, no more boring grey backgrounds!

[Mbob61]

Another amazing gun :O
The model and skin look pretty good although the butt looks a little angular.
Very nice work with the floor as well

Mike

[Jok3r]

Looks excellent man, though the grip looks a little off and the dust cover a tad... flat.

[Alias]

It looks far too much like plastic, as there is zero differentiation between the plastic bits and the metal bits besides colour.

Other than that, excellent work as always, mate.

[Pav:3d]

Its been a while (due to getting EC out the door and Mass effect )



Inspired by mass effect and general sci fi ness.

[Dr. Knickers]

I love the edging

But I don't love the noise on the lights and the sharp edging on the grip too much

I think since I didnt do any texturing for a month I may have slipped a little

[TheDR]

It looks very Mass Effectish, which isn't a bad thing

I think there is a bit too much scratching on the red bits, i feel they should be a bit more tougher in comparison to the black parts.

[Dtneter]

wow that smg looks very good.

[Chyros]

I'm not hot for fictive future weapons but that model is very nicely made tbh, and the skin looks very nice and convincing :o . Nice work!
