Did you ever look at Katarn's topic, "Modeling for dummies"? I guess not so I'll post the link to some of the greatest plane modeling tutorials.

Video Tutorials on Modelling a Beretta 9000

<edit> Instead of double posting, I thought I'd just post what I got done on the model so far.

About 1-2 hours of work so far.

Srry to double post, but I finished the model. I'll be posting the pictures in a minute.

Pics:
<edit>I actually forgot to fix one part on the front grip of the model. I updated the picture below.

BTW I just noticed this post directed to me..

Ehm ok, but I'd like to see some pictures to see if your model "pwns". I've seen some of your other models, and aside from a large amount of pulled verts I wasn't impressed..

And your snide comment about me "sucking your balls". I'm sorry, I'm not a homosexual like some people on this forum...

Looks good, but very boxy. Round it out a bit. And youhoo7 don't go tooting your horn when you don't know what you're talking about.

I think I'm going to round out the hand grip and part on top of it. Then I have to apply smooth groups and it will be done, hopefully. Thanks for the helpful insight btw.

Needs perspective.
Never do renders in an orthographic view...

It is perspective. I don't do renders in isometrice view.

It's gotta be in user, I thought it looks funny. Switch over to perspective.

It is in perspective, it just looks that way... It's probably just the angle.

Ya, when Bacon told me It did kinda of look like an isometric render, but when I did User and Perspective renders at the same angle. The user was short and stubby, whilst the perspective was longer and thinner. If you want Leuikemia I could send you the pictures of user/perspective comparisons.

How many polygons?

awesome that looks very nice when is it going to be downloadable or is it already downloadable

TomClancey · Post by **TomClancey** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 12:11 pm

@ cryticfarm: It is 4660 polygons.

@ astrader: It is not up for download and it never will be. This may be going into a mod but I doubt it, and if it does the tags will be protected. This may not even be a tag ever. I normally just model for fun and don't put my content up for download.

The render looks weird.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious, person #3...

It's just the angle of the render. It is in perspective not isometric (user).

I re-rendered it, but keep forgetting to host it.
