my first actual model:gun

- Start date
Don't you go subsurf all over this on me.Only just over 1k polys? IMPOSSIBRU.
Btw, I suggest you apply subsurf/nurbs/smoothing/whatever to the front grip part.
It'll ruin everything.
Bad. If you model anything organic at least.
You want to stick to quads to make it as even as possible and avoid tris as much as you can or it might turn out messed up.
A quad is a polygon, made up of 2 tris.
--Whether you edit the triangulation or not, unreal ed is going to autotriangulate it upon import. The perk of editing this inside a modeling program is control. For smoothing purposes, its better to model in quads, then tweak the triangulation to your needs.

yea tri's thats what i ment
so after full quad to tri's the total face count is 1513 is that a good/decent amount?

Good call going with triangles, I learned the hard way with the minigun that everying that is exported/imported into unrealed requires triangulation.
Also very nice looking gun
I agree with what JD says above^ But it more or less depends on your texturing skills.

I love almost everyone's first model is either the MP5 or a basic pistol.

AFAIK, the max is 10,000 polys. :IS2:
unfortunetly my computer caught a virus that really messed up my computer, i couldn't remove it and neither could the latest version of combofix or spy bot S&D so i had to format my drive and i lost ALMOSt all of my files.. so i won't be able to get this textured unless i remake it.. tho now with my more experienced knowledge and skills i suppose that wouldn't be too hard.
side Note: luckely tho i managed to keep a few of my models i made for a campaign thats being made for my self and familiy.. it's a family project. my part is Modeling, Texturing, and events. Remake of the Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss. and it's coming along quite nicely if i say so myself =D. i'll post a screenshot of one of my models. also we have no intention of releaseing this campaign to the public... tho we might.. whose to say what will happen or if we'll even get past the first level lol!!!
edit: here you go fully textured and already implimented. tho IMHO i think i'm going to accent the edging in the textures a bit more. a rusted door would have really rusted edges. also the smoothing groups are super suckage with .lwo's and my .ase exporter isn't working for whatever reason =/

Try making a model like this:
it's something i whipped up in 5 minutes
Grip-mounted torch
Looks like the one Rain carried in the movie Resident Evil, good job!
