(mreq) A Concept That Aint All Mine

Owen1

<div class="IPBDescription">pulse rifle-ish</div> this isnt my concept completely so dont flame me about ripping it... it was acid-snake's but i made the textues, shading, ammo box, masterkey shotty and the bullets and shells. so whatcha think, i get kind of a m60 / pulse rife feel to her, but thats me, ur views? anybody who wishes to model go ahead <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

To long and skinny IMO. Scrunch it up a bit and give it some bulk <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Owen1

Sentinel1

Small problem.....


How do you reload the gun being you have the shotgun ammo and the Rifle ammo in the same magazine?

Sentinel1

Doesn't look like they are in the same mag' to me... seems plain + simple enough :o

Anime_Tentacle_Monster

Well theres no seperation line so it would seem they are

however you need to think of these things save when it comes time to animate and you find that you have some small aesthetic problems <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Sentinel1

Ye, it seems to be some sort of drop-pot <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

And it would be a problem in terms of animations, it would look equally good with just one ammo type I suppose <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Sure soem one could model it so u declamp the little 'drop-pot' and pullout the ammo.... I am more interested in how sleek the gun looks though... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Anime_Tentacle_Monster

Well not only that but unless you made this model a shottie too the shotgun ammo is kinda pointless

so if you were to get rid of the shottie ammo and either increase the caliber or just make the magazine look bigger it would make a wonderful HMG


thats one thing that bothers me about the standard LMG we have a scope we cant use....

Owen1

its instant feed which basically means if its in, it stays in until ur out... dunno how u'd animate that but sufice to say if u pull away the box then maybe the shotty belt just hangs there

Anime_Tentacle_Monster

I dont want to turn this into an aesthetic debate but once you reload the clip you break the chain...unless you pull the shotgun ammo out much akin to an M60 but the M60 top comes up....I think you'd be a little hardpressed to do that with this gun <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
-e-

Come to think of it both of those are belt fed how would you load that0_o

However Im making far too much concept out of this

overall this is a nice weapon <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

rabbity

maybe its just me, i dunno, but its kinda uncomfortable with the box kinda hindering your left arm if you need to pump the shotty. Maybe the pump needs a handle liek Duke nukem 3d's shotgun or something? :o

Owen1

omg... good idea... but i dont know how i could put that on a 2d design

BlackPanther

I've been meaning to do a version of my M41A Pulse rifle for the HMG with a few tricks.
I'd love to do something like this.
Maybe swap the magazine chamber in favor of a large ammo container like an M249's ammo box

Owen1

ooo a drum would kick anu5

BlackPanther

No. No drum!
M249 style ammo box!

/me gets to work

Fox_One

Look at the Op4 SAW. Use it for reference on how the reload would work.

Anime_Tentacle_Monster

kinda like this perhaps

Fox_One

I meant the reload sequence. Use it to figure out how the reload would work <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Anime_Tentacle_Monster

I was using that in referrence to what the Ammo Box looked like not the reload animations.....

Hes gonna have a hulleva time figuring out how to reload a belt fed ammo type into a not so belt fed frame if you ask me

I did have one Idea for that though <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

BlackPanther

Make the whole top swivle. Duh.
Make the gun low enough in the origins so that you can't see the bullets ( Looks weird if you got 0 ammo left, yet sitll see rounds in the belt)

Owen1

true, but then whats the point of having it at all... just have it as u model it. speakin of which any progress for us aka'lamanaia?

At firs tthought it was a nade. GG
