[Vietnow]

tell me what you think!
its still a WIP of course, im not sure even how to make gun models

i know its not very good quality, but give some suggestions

i havent done the clips yet

It is quite... flat. But the shape looks ok

 

[Vietnow]

heh, yeah, i dont know how to get the smooth edges

Its not bad mate but if i was you i would have went for a easier model if this is your first gun model, hence i went for the MAS 38

What you've got done is a good start to shaping the weapons Y (length) and Z (hight) axis. the X (width) axis is what take alot of planning. Try to think of it as layers with the barrel as the center one that the rest are built on. Start with a cylinder remove one of the round faces extrude the edges from there along the x and z axis and turn the extrusions into a square along thoughs axis. From there you can extrude the squared edges along the
y and start to shape the model like you already have.

I assume you are doing that in the google 3d utiity thingy, whatever it is called.
if you are, or not, it is purdy neat.

Google Sketchup yeah.

I imported a picture of an Ak47 and then traced it with the pencil tool, then i simply raised it up into a 3D model
