Here is a WIP for NIK's project, "Spade." Also there is the WIP of the hand, and I think it looks pretty good, the thumb needs work though. There will also be a tribal tattoo on the arm. If you want anymore shots, just ask. I have UV mapped the M16 and started texturing, but I want to start over, so I will not show. C&C is welcome and requested, thanks.

Good start, man. Lower the barrel/handguard a hair. It should be directly in line with the stock tube and cylindrical body contour on the reciever.

I would hollow out the base of the front sight. Also, there is no elevation on the front sight; is this on purpose? Nice work so far; finally, a non-cardboard cut-out weapon. Keep it up.

Fred- Thanks, man.

Errant- Thanks aswell, fixed it.

Keith- Yea, it was on purpose, the sight is also not hollowed out because I may try to alpha map it once I make it thinner.

Oooh, thanks, I was hoping for a comment like that.

Yup, pleasingly three-dimensional

I also like the fact that you've given us a HUD-esque view of the weapon, so to speak, instead of just side-on textured beauty shots (beloved of cut-out modellers LOL)

I set up this camera angle frequently when I'm modelling a weapon so that I can see where more details are needed, and also to see where I might be giving myself uvmapping headaches.

Nice work!

Cheers

I could not agree more! Muzzle-towards camera are a close second least favorite to me after side shots for HUD weapons.

Thanks Graham. I always use that view to see if there is enough details in my weapons when in-game, it helps alot.

Man, I feel good because I am getting great comments from some of the best CG artists here. It makes me feel even more good because of recieving them my young age. Thanks guys.

Wow, this got pushed back quickly. I have a question about UV maps. Sometimes I use 1024x600 when exporting from Lithunwrap. Is that a bad thing to do, or is it ok. I use it because I can UV everything in proportion to the model without stretching the pieces so they will squish in evenly. Thanks in advance.

Use powers of two, Havok. 1024x512 is pretty close to what you have allready.

Thanks, and your right that is pretty close to what I already use. I just didn't know whether or not I had to use the same power of 2 for the U and V coordinates. Thanks again, Errant.
