Ive been getting tired with using placeholders in my game so as the engine is working decently im trying my hand at modeling. here is an Ak47 I threw together in a few hours.tell me what you think. And as you can see iam not so good at uv mapping.

triangles: 394
vertices:344





and a wireframe:

A little wonky, but other than that, looks decent......

That looks like Milkshape to me... am I right in thinking that? if it is, try selecting all of the vertices on the top of the gun and hold: CTRL SHIFT Y, it'll line them up so they're not wonky...

dont round it out if its a placeholder, that would cause 50% more poly's for part of the gun you dont even see.

only thing that strikes me as horribly wrong is the magazine.

just because your bad at UV mapping doesnt mean you should let it stay crap. get some models from people and practice.

Its low poly cheeseman... I know what an AK-47 looks like.


No crap theres gona be a difference... If it looked like the origonal it wouldnt be low poly, and thus would defeat the purpose of the whole model.

Without trying to undermine your own work too much, this is what I came up with about 2 months back, unfortunately, I never textured it, "colouring in" isn't one of better abilities... I think the barrel looks a little long, but it was also modelled in front of an image, so I'll assume it's right, and I'll also assume that we didn't use the same image



I must repeat, this is not intended to put your work down (personally, I don't think I'm really in any position without a texture), I'm merely pointing out why I think yours has a bit of a wonky barrel...
