<div class="IPBDescription">Probably an LMG... :D</div> Well, after seeing the following marine concept in another thread:
<img src='http://dump.creativeblank.com/marine_concept.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />
I took a shine to the gun, so i decided to start modelling it. PC is waaaaaayyyy too high right now (Dunno exactly, but i'm sure it is) but i've made some progress tonight.

I'm pretty sure it'll make an LMG replacement, due to the ungodly sized clip at the back, but it's been a total pain working from what little reference i have. Bleh.
More updates soon. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Well, after a minor f**k-up, i'm working on it again, after a poly count pre-optimisation, it's sitting around 850 poly or so, which is great news, i figured it was much higher. I'm aiming for about a 1500 poly target for this, but i've doubts it'll even be that much. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I love it. Its a monster of a gun.
Grip nowhere near done (So ignore that entire area), proportions need some work, smoothing groups not done, strap not done, detail work not done, optimising not done. PC is around the 1300 mark, but with all the optimisation there is to do, this will drop quite radically.
Also moved the ejection port to the other side. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
EDIT: 10 cigarettes and 4 beers, i'm done for tonight. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I think it'd fit the HMG better...
Good look'n so far <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Well it's too big for a pistol, and the clip size is WAAAAAAAY too big for pistol, unless it's an anti-tank pistol, that is....
Shotgun, well, i don't care if it's a shotgun, i'm not gonna even bother trying to work out how to make a shottie reload using a clip.
That leaves HMG and LMG. Given it's size i'd say either way is fair game really.

i meant if you didnt model it with a clip, or the ending buttstock area. IE: only modelling what's outlined in red.
Shexay one though! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

remember... pistol does most dmg per shot of all the ballistic weapons (excluding the all mighty shotgun)
GL, btw, is NOT really ballistic... it's a morter more than anything <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
No really, i'm stopping work on it for tonight...

no, no you're not
please <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
honestly i think that it should be a pistol - it looks like one in the concept and so it should be. pistol packs the most punch, so it really should have the size to go along with it
it looks gorgeous too esuna, really nice work you've done on it mate <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And dreal has said that he's interested in skinning it - this just gets better by the minute!
it enuff bullets like lmg a stock for shotgun and its just gotta be a pistol
3/3 Rines

Hah, far from abandoned. I only started it at about 10pm and it's now 4am.
I'm just not going to work on it any more tonight.
As for progress, the grip etc still needs a hell of a lot of work, the pivot for the stock will be changed from that crappy cylinder to something more like in the concept, the PC will drop drastically from what it is now (~1900 :o).
Then, the model will be done.
Or maybe a welder?
It NEEDS to be some kind of handgun!
A hand held GL perhaps?
a 10 shot, .50 cal caseless hollow tip round with MegNeTex Anti-Armor technology would explain the size of the weapon (they are BIG freaking SHELLS... made to penetrate ONLY body armor and then mushroom out, blowing a nice hole in the subjects body)
A hand held GL perhaps?

i think the GL is already hand held...
havent seen a stationary GL in NS yet <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
i think it should be the LMG
