<div class="IPBDescription">[insert random gung-ho weapon name here]</div> A goodly morrow, one and all. Here be something I was initially concocting for ut2k4 but figured the polycount would probably end up low enough for a HL mod. If I finish and skin this chappie somebody else will have to do the animating if they are willing.

~1300polys so far, likely to climb towards 2000-2500 as details are added, then sink back down to around 1700 during optimisation.

    Woah! What the hell am I looking at here? I like the general shape of the weapon, but im a bit confused about it.

    Is that a gigantic banana clip you've got going on there, or is it a bullpup style rifle? I hope it's got a giant banana clip...that'd make it soo cool.

    It's a bullpup. That "banana clip thing" is my trademark pointless sticky-out bit.

    No concept art - I designed as I went along, though it's inspired in equal parts by an old ut2k3 player model concept (she was holding a gun) and the Halo AR.

    Once you're out of Ammo, you could use that clip as a boomerang! Awesome work.

    sooo.. the magazine is at the back of the gun, and that giant curvy thingy is just a handle?

    Although maus said it was a pointless signature... it looks more like a giant hand guard or something <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    no **** shirlock <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->, theres diffrent factors involved, like how skins are handled, how it animates (bones/nobones) if it requires diffrent ref files, lots of things can be diffrent.

    Looks cool, but that "banana" seems a tad long to me

    very glad you got around to doing this on maus... been waiting to either see the concept again, or to have someone model it...

    It's been almost a year since I did anything low-poly, so I'm somewhat out of practice. As I said, there is optimisation to come, which would knock it down a bunch. The clip and "banana thing" alone come up to 500 polys at the mo.

    @ kitki - then you're going to hate the final version, as it'll be even longer ^^ - it's going to loop round to the base of the handle.

    Oh well, nobody ever appreciates true genius - I remember everyone being all "wth" with the shield on the Project X lmg <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
