40k style flamer model

[Zaku212]

Done in blender, first render i've done in the best part of a year.

Needs a lot more work but i thought the original flamethrower looks a bit meh.
so made this thingy right here.
a mate of mine is gonna texture it soon..

Very nice model! Can't wait to see what the finished one looks like!

Nice model.

Now we need a W40k Chainsword, Best weapon evar!(In terms of brutality and gory awesomeness.)

Thanks for the nice comments lads, just to let you know there is a possibility of an total 40k mod/reskin for this.

or a lot of 40k weapon models being churned out by me..

Does anyone here reckon the reload anim for the scar is suitable for a bolter or lasgun?

 

[Zaku212]

Oh as well, if you are wanting a chainsword, would you want an space marine style one hand, or the eviscorator two handed one?

 

[Zaku212]

Right first off flamer is finished modelling wise, and has been sent off to my mate to be textured up.

and i now have this to show you all

Excellent bolter! It's always nice to see fellow modellers on these forums! Is there any chance we could talk over steam? My ID is: {BOiaH}Sgt No Glory (To add: SgtNoGlory)!

I am working on a Laspistol model for tonight, It's going ok, and i have some update on the boltpistol, and i've heard nothing off the guy who's supposed to be texturing.

 

[Zaku212]

Laspistol nearly done-ish

It needs a lot more work, but i hope you like it anyways

A fellow 2.49 user I've been trying out the 5 series of blender, but am still sticking to the one I know best, is it the same for you?

You call these excellent?

ugh i can see the normals are messed up where there should be vertex's also its too choppy.

this is basically a 2/10 quality.

sorry but im a tough 3D critic.

I think the problems you are seeing are not due to the modeller, but due to Blender, it is a free application after all.

Nah dude, i can take critisism, it's all welcome.

But can you tell me where i ****ed up, and how i could fix it?

One thing you can do it up the number of vertices on your cylinders, 500 is the max and creates a pretty perfectly smooth cylinder.

Ok duly noted, will implement the changes and provide screenies tonight if possible

 

[Zaku212]

Here's the flamer with some changes and the updates, I hope it's coming closer to the expected standard..

 

[YoYoBatty]

This is starting to look fantastique! I can't w8 til this gets put in game.
