Weapons of WWII
« on: June 28, 2009, 10:08:03 am »
Since I have vacation I've got all the time of the world to do some nice 3D artwork  :D :P

Thought it would be a nice idea to start with an easy rifle so I can improve my skills, after that one Ill go on with some more weapons from WWII

Here you can see my start for the American rifle: The 'M1 Garand'

Looking very well modelled at the moment! can't wait to see it completed, may I ask where you're getting your reference images? (assuming you aren't doing this from... memory :P)

Some sort of finished it, I might search for a better wood texture =/ not sure

and I will improve it, because some edges are a bit weird :P

And I have 1 question, about the texturing: the woodtexture looks OK on most places, except for the flat places on top of it, hoe can I improve that? (see second picture)

Ill make a nice render of it today or tomorrow ;)

very nice. the textures look great. are they from the reference picture or drawn. anyways i would say to unwrap them in lithurunwrapper to avoid that "stretching" effect on the top and bottom.

but great work!

Very nice, yes... Not looking at any original images to compare, but I do like it!  A bit funny you doing this, because awhile back I had started in on a project tied in with WWII modeling... specifically certain things associated with Nazi Germany, for an unusual video game/movie idea.
