Basically ^
I dont have time to do much anymore, since I have school. Ill probably model little by little over the weekends.

I think he is being sarcastic when he says it is an extrude. Because it quite obviously is not.
But in your opinion BP, you may not like it, I personally like it.

Why? Well, because no one else has thought of it, it is usfull as it is a laser and can help snipers to determine if they are on the target. The fact that you think it is obstructing is okay, but really, in real life it would not be, but in-game it may be, a bit.

CAD moved the actual sight over the right on his, which basically ment there is no obstruction, you should do the same Advancebo.

And yeah, he copied, but I don't blame him because it looks awesome. I wanted to do something simular, but I couldn't think of anything Lol. And I don't really want to copy of CAD.

It makes the sniper look a lot more interesting though, move the sight over to the right Advancebo. and if you can, design a different way for the sight to be attached so that it isnt just slanted.

Here is CAD's:



Oh, and CAD mentioned he was adding a suppressor, which kinda makes the attachment make more sense, as he is making it a silenced version. Silenced weapons usually have laser sight.

I moved the scope over, but I guess not enough. Ill see what it looks like later tommorow.

Any 40k fans here?

Don't blame me for the handle and stock, they were obscured by the miniature's arm.

yeah. what weapon is that supposed to be? lol.

Imperial lasgun w/ bayonet attachment :C



FFFFFFFFFFF I just realized that above image is a great ref for the handle and stock brb with updates in a second.

lol with the edit, looks cool. looks like a good ref, though, bayonet seems a bit odd to have on a lasgun.. don't know why, though. I'm used to using lascannons so i think I've got in my head that thats what your making.. if the lasgun is a standard choice for the troops, (just like a bolter is for SM.) then a bayonet would make sense.. but it seems that they wouldn't need it, too much.
Though, if a bayonet is a thing you can actually add to the model, then whatever i must be being weird..

edit, i cant spell :c

On the bayonet, add some detail to it, like on a sharp utility knife.

Catching innaccuracies as I post:

I have bayonet attachments on most of my renegade IG troops, but I can't remember if I added that on, or if it came with the kit.

^Gotta love that picture quality lol
Either way, I think it's cool and it'd be useful for fighting Tyranids :D

o hai


Just use a gun without the arm attached for reference. Sides need to be beveled badly or something. Still just doesn't look right though...

E: I know. The tube on top is too big.
Edited by Headhunter09 on Aug 27, 2009 at 07:06 PM

The bayonet looks like it wouldnt last long attached the way it is now.

They are beveled you just can't see in the render I took.
Will shrink the tube on top though.

Bayonet needs a better mount.

Thats how it is on the actual model.

Or on the actual plastic toy?

Umm how does that make more sense? you can add a laser to anything, and silenced weapons usually has a laser? Thats a load of bull. Lasers are used to assist in aiming from the hip, not because you're using a silenced weapon. Frankly using a silenced weapon with a laser makes no sense because you would just be giving away your position.

That's how it's attached on my minatures

Lasers are not like what they are in games, you won't see the beam unless its foggy... Or there is dust. And I didnt say that you can't put laser sight on a weapon unless its supressed... Its just in most games lasers are on supressed weapons.

Oh look, an argument over something petty again haha.


(No Dennis did not say that.. just quoting from another thread to a simular situation).

Who else thinks Pistol looks epic in ASCII?

Some dude had no life when he programmed that. Unless he made it for college or something. I mean, its interesting as an idea, but worthless as a practical application.

Looks great , but you have way too much time on your hands. Or whoever made it did.

I'll be honest, when I first looked at that I just glanced at it and I thought it was a penis :\

No, really, it looked like an upside-down penis :C

I mean toy. I use model to describe both, so.

.

Agreed

lit the display background, fix smoothin ontop, make intrudes less deep and you're set

Intrudes go all the way through the other side, thats how the assault rifle is.

I did to...

ok so heres a weapon im working on:



dont blame me for the lack of detail, i cant realy add much detail from ref as big as a grain of sand

Edited by halo3n00b on Aug 29, 2009 at 02:06 PM

What kind of shotgun is it supposed to be? I'd say google the name and see if you can't find any better references.

Looks like a bright shape to me. Tone the render down, cant comment on the model with crap renders.

thats not the doom shotgun tho, and thats the only ref i could find of it, usualy im a detail whore

EDIT: sorry about the render, i was messing around with vray and forgot to change it back to scanline
Edited by halo3n00b on Aug 29, 2009 at 04:12 PM

thats the standard 12 gauge semiautmatic comba shotgun(no stock) used by cops and swat
