Just detail the fuck out of the back, the front won't be seen much except in animations, maybe. You can do a lot on the drum for sure. Add a fire selector switch (it doesn't have to work, its detail that fits).
Sorry for sucky render I didnt do it for years. I made that pic to show everyone how the overall shape looks in 3D. Oh and everyone can start model some of those concepts but I think its a waste of resources if 3 people model the same gun.
Not at all. If each person tries to do it a little different from each other, the end result would hopefully be 3 good models and the best style chosen. Details are everything. Lets see who can make this gun look the most interesting.
It looks like an XM-8 with a drum mag... and XM-8s are horrible, horrible guns. That and the thing doesn't look very aesthetically pleasing from the First Person View rendering, but that just might be because there's no detail.
I'm just modeing it because I'm having a little time between uni assignments and because I finally want to actually bring something ingame. I don't care if it's redundant or useless or anything.
The smoothed version looks alot better in first person view. Yeah, I shouldnt use a metal material for presentation but I COULDNT RESIST!!!
This definitely looks better, a lot better, but the adjustable stock looks very flimsy.. To me the gun feels a bit bulky, as if it's using up extra space, does anyone else feel this when they look at it, or is this meant to make it look like it's eating up space? Is this the model we're gonna use?
I don't care if the real gun was horrible this is a game. If it looks good its good. I am sick of tired of people bitching about the real life ones and comparing to the game ones this game is not aimed to be realistic its aimed to be fun. So frankly i don't care if it looks like XM-8 and its a horrible gun i guess the xm-8 looks pretty badass then which is good. If you want to discuss the performance of real gun take it elsewhere. (rant over)
Yes, but what about when people stated they wanted a unique counterpart for the NF shotgun? This looks like the stock and carrying handle/sight on the XM-8 have been changed along with a bit of the general shape, but it looks a lot like it, and it's not very unique if it's similar to it. I'm sorry I didn't clearly state that. Edit: Nice job Mayama :D Is this the design we're going with now or are we still open to more?
I think there's a planned sight back a page or two. Can we still submit new ideas for the BE shotgun because I don't want to waste what I've drawn up and am drawing up.
Don't forget the red dot sight you had there before, or "ironsight", or whatever that was. It added a lot to the silhouette of the weapon.
Better yet, you could have a flashlight that shines a cone of light depicting where the cone of spread is. :D
also put "some" more detail in the barrel, i know it wont be that much seen but it should be something else then just a tube
