that should help you out

The blade could use some more polygons.

It's for an alpha build of a zombie survival game. It needs to be low poly.

Lol, well then you need to fix up the grip for it, and especially the magnum, becuase if the models have to be low-poly, then the magnum won't work, because it's too high poly.

The .44 was just for fun.

the knife could go lower poly, mostly by removing some sections of the handle.

Yeah, the handle was actually a hunting knife handle, but I failed at making the blade so it turned into a kitchen knife instead...

Well,that would be the kind that everyone should have.

Agreed with the grunge. Looks like cloud filter over the entire thing, and that is making it look very bad. Needs to be darker, more solid, and needs to have clear transitions between different surfaces. (ex. grip) If it's supposed to look used, it needs grime in tight places, and scuffs on outer surfaces in expected places. As it sits it's very plain and uninteresting.
You've got a rough primer, but now it needs a good layer of paint and polish to really make it shine.

Thanks for the advice, I will be sure to keep this in mind as I continue working on the texture.

Sneak preview of my next project:




It's a 3-round burst pistol.

a BR pistol?

It's for a mod expansion that I plan to do in a few years. Combining Halo's multiplayer, Mass Effect's single player, and EVE Online's space battles. :)

It's difficult to make guns when there are only one or two pictures of them on the whole interwebs.

It looks okay, but I would recommend rotating your wrist to the left (so more of the backhand shows via this view) to give it a beefier look. It would also be more realistic, since the backhand should be near parallel to the guns orientation, with the first part to the fingers then being perpendicular to that forward orientation...except that's only in a perfect world with a good rig. For the Halo 1 rig, because it's so small, you want to try and BS as much beefy-ness out of it as you can for something like the Laser (heck, normally you should be using the Halo 3 or Reach arms because they were designed for this weapon, whereas the Halo 1 arms were definitely not). I therefore wouldn't necessarily recommend bending the fingers 90 degrees for this particular origin.

...if that makes ANY sense what-so-ever.

Here's an example I did, note how you can see the back handplate, the thumb looks more massive and the hand itself seems to be able to hold up something so large. My fingers also can't be seen entirely wrapping around the handle either:

(Also ignore my super bad render settings. They're old and not updated to my current ones)

what is that?

There are videos on youtube showing all the pre halo weapons, you might wanna watch it. Someone should make gravity wrench or whatever its called :D

THe gun he has in that picture looks like an OICW.

found this:

It's sound tags extracted from H4

That's a great resource, thanks for the link.

Many thanks !

The BR firing sounds don't have individual shots. :(

So? just take it into audacity and select the last shot, crop it to that, clean it up a 'lil. There you go. One shot with the echo\fade\whatchamacallit after it.
