the background story... well, it's the 21st addition to the tactical line of weapons used by the U.S. Special Forces. this, in particular, is a close to mid range SMG with single fire, 3 round burst, and full auto modes. the bulky end of the barrel is due to the barrel's design to reduce muzzle flash and audible report. although it doesn't work as well as a silencer would, it's close to it, and helps maintain stealth. the large body holds an internal magazine, capable of holding 30 rounds. this allows the user to load one magazine in, filling the internal magazine, and reload another magazine in, allowing for 60 round capacity.
ok, back to real life. i don't like how the handle is currently, and there's some weird shading group crap goin on in that area. i hope to get it a bit better, but don't hold your breath. just getting everything to join and have each polygon be normal was a total pain in the ass. also, the handle is way too small (which i just noticed) so i'll go back sometime soon and re-size it. i also haven't added the magazine, sights, or any other details yet, and only have 2 objects, the barrel and gun body.
well, here's the pics!
side view of the T-21. gives a good feel of length of the gun and such.
front 3/4 view of the T-21. looks ok from here, but you can see what i mean by "shading group crap"
last pic. a fantasization of an in-game appearance, except there's no hands, so just use your imagination.
