AK-47 IMPROVED (maybe final version)

Katarn · Post by **Katarn** » Sat Jul 10, 2004 9:24 pm

well, i've been working alot on my ak-47 in the past few weeks, i think it deserves a new topic, 8 pages is way too long. New renders:

My newest render is on the gta-halo forums. http://s3.invisionfree.com/GTA__Codenam ... &id=453454

Looks good. One quick question though. How do you make the barrels? I see that their just not tubes because they were not completely round until you did that

very very nice. Now, all it needs is a skin and a download.

wow i like that alot.....wish i cud model

Katarn · Post by **Katarn** » Sun Jul 11, 2004 5:21 pm

it's in the process of being skinned by Paul, the receiver is kind of messed up, so i'm in the process of getting that part of the uvwing patched up. To not get flamed by n00bs who completely ignored the text and just looked at the picture, i wont post one. The wood is brown and reflective and the metal is dark and very detailed, thats all for now. For the person who asked the question about the tube barrel. At first i had it at 12 sides, now its at 18. The reason why when you make them it looks so smooth is because it is smoothed by 3ds max (an illusion). Turn off the smooth checkbox before you make it and thats what it really looks like.

Great model. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see it with a skin.

needs some work:
-the shell ejection port is too large, and it shouldn't be on both sides, and should be located higher
-the banana clip isn't wide enough from the tip of the bullet to the primer ways
-the trigger gaurd is to rounded
-the front sight is totally different
-the flash surpressor, and other things on the tip are innaccurate
besides a few little things like that, that's a very nice model, keep it up

the grip thing where the 2 oval slits r in.....where the barrels come out of (dammit, whats the term for that.....the foregrip maybe)

anyway, that peice needs a little work....its not really 2 ovals shaped holes there....they r more rectangular and have lines connecting them

h/o....lemme get a pic:

other than that, it looks pretty damn good

The shell ejection port is only located on 1 side, you are mistaken, it is also the exact size, look at the pic seki Ryuu posted. I know the trigger guard is too rounded, i have actually made another. I didn't put much thought into the front sight, i think i'll fix it later, when i get on my primary computer. Yes i'll get those lines in the foregrip done in a second.

i want to learn how to model like that, but i cant figure it out

only thing ive been able to do with 3DsMAX is this:

lol

i have a question, jay:

how can u tell that the clip isnt wide enough...i dont c a picture of a shell next to it, and i doubt the model is drawn to scale

Katarn · Post by **Katarn** » Mon Jul 12, 2004 2:02 pm

because look at the size of the magazine compared to the size of the shell ejection port and the rest of the gun in the first pictures, dumbass
