<div class="IPBDescription">finally comming together</div> hey, if any of you remember, Sid had a whole group of concept art for model weapons, all of them made in *semi-cringe* MS paint....
here's the progress on the pistol, i know it's not the best skin/model in the world, but it's still how i'm gunna learn...
what's new in this?
- Skin (finally figured it out)
- Groups (got them figured out too)
here's how it looks so far::::
-=edit=-
forgot that i'm also going to leanr animation, bane assignment, and really nice skin creation on THIS MODEL!!! (aka, this is a beta...and not being published at the moment)

you can also see all the rest of his/my concept art at <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=19&t=22114' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/in...ST&f=19&t=22114</a>
The model needs a little more depth, but it's still good for a beginner. Don't forget though that skins do end up needing to curve a little, so go for gentler shades of green on the edge where the corners are. Or round out the corners a little.

Edit: N/m
anyone have any ideas about how to add vertexes to an already made face?
kinda having a problem with materials now, but it's an easy fix...
and YES, i AM starting completely new each time i'm putting new pics up... (as you can see, i've got LOTS of free time on my hands)
Stats:
138 verticies
268 triangles

ok, i sorta agree with you, BUT WHY?<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
the skin is terrible maybey u could ask for some help of ctx or bots for skinning advise
also if im not mistaken theres no trigger...
it might look like a bad skin, but i'm working on that part.... i've got a new skin to put on it, but first i'm going to fix up my backwards faces....(the black triangles in flat shaded)
as for the gun it'self, i think it'll be a high velocity shell pistol... so you can grab the front with all your might in an attempt to stay on your feet....
a pistol aint a pistol if it don't knowck you off your feet.....
go up a few posts... new pics...
i spiced up the back handle (besides the mounts), but i guess iw wasn't a drastic enough spice to make it show up, it's suposed to have texture, but it's only a 4X4 pattern....
which is the firing grip?
my one major problem with connect-the-dots is that i never followed the numbers, just started connecting them, i could see what it was without the lame numbers.... why pay attention to them? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
but anyway, the next one is gunna be a while, i'm redoing the WHOLE entire skin, so maybe y'all will like it at least a little better.....
lemme try a few photoshop tricks, and see what it looks like.... who knows, i might just get this looking nice (er)...
if not, i'll try and get coil to get me some art.... i like coil... but if anyone else wants to make some skin parts, go for it....
looking at it in this light, it needs more spice, i'm going to add a few little tweaks in on this next one, to see if i can't make it look a little less brick-ish
here's the new one, let me know what you think.... and please, more than one word replys
did you make it from an extruded line or from boxes?
I could try my hand at skinning the thing, I mean, I'm not half bad... I made my own reskin for the grenade shell, after all <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I like it, it looks simply amazing. For the trigger, remember how it's built into the handle? Kinda odd... i guess I was just thinking too ahead of myself when I drew it.
Awesome model. A whole lot better than I could ever make or draw. And here i thought I would get better at modelling... and here's Del, beats me at my own game! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
I love it man. Simply awesome. Can't wait 'till it's released. I'll give it sounds, too. If you want... I just know where to get some awesome sounds for the thing.
Anyways, keep up the awersome work! And don't listen to those Morons, what they're saying really isn't helping at all. Saying stuff like, "Disgusting" Isn't going to help it, so why bloody post it?
Anyways, great job, can't wait for it's release <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Thanks for your time,

Anyways, sorry for hijacking your thread Del <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
HARSH INSULT! INTENSE! <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo-->
Del I meant by the firing grip that little piece of uh grey "cloth" shown bolted into the grip of the handle. ?.?
Yeah... SUGOI DESUNE!!! <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo-->
create verticies (inside... or the "big ones")
Create more vertacies (the outside ones...)
create faces, regroup, move into place...
tthre is no extrude, "objects" (like Box... Cylender... none of that stuff), and no real skin at the moment....
McNoob, each "layer" of verticies aren't connected to their mirrors on the other side of the gun, they are only connected to the verticies next to and related to them....i don't know how to get that effect with extrude...
sid, if you wanna make one, go for it, post it up here, and i'll try it on the model...and no, i didn't beat you at your own game, i've been interested in modeling for quite some time... i just never got around to it...i am a forum junkie, and since i have soo much time on my hands, i decided that the modeling community needed a website (so i learned photoshop so i could make a good site).... then i decided that since everyone else was making hackjobs and such, why not give it a try... and it all started from there...
still not sure what you meant by invert it, could you explain more? dont be afraid to D/L that image and edit it to point it out....
I thought I was the only one who used the word, "Forum Junkie". Almost scary. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
