This is a 3d model of vash's gun. It's gonna be medium poly, and will be toonshaded, right now it's sitting at around 7165 polys. Making the handle will be a pain in the butt in my opinion.

If any of you guys have any reference pictures, I really need them, I'm modelling this from memory/crappy ebay pictures. I also tried google, didn't really help much.

I've got some links for you from google:

It's basically the same, but colored black instead of silver.

Doing that would be pretty easy.

Quantsini · 2004-01-20, 21:27

more updates

Newprimus · 2004-01-20, 22:12

Is that with 3ds Max?

Quantsini · 2004-01-20, 23:33

yes ^_^

Newprimus · 2004-01-20, 23:40

Ah, thought so. The skylight+background gave it away.

PeppstaR · 2004-01-21, 00:27

The cylinder is misaligned.

Yep. You need to have it rotated a bit so that it's like:

__O
O___O
O___O
__O

Not like:

_OO_
O__O
_OO

PeppstaR · 2004-01-21, 03:37

sure its not just the angle that makes the cylinders looks smashed together?

Nope. The whole cylinder is definetly aligned wrong.

Prince of Chronics · 2004-01-21, 13:56

I'll be damned before I ever create that kind of stuff in 3d max...

though I did use max script in the past.... it sucks ass! well for me at least...... though for others, max script may be helpful....

to get back on topic..... the gun is comin along pretty nicely....

...just follow what those other guys are sayin with the mis-aligned bullet chambers (was that what was mis-aligned or were you guys talkin about somethin else?)....

fenrihr · 2004-01-21, 15:34

i believe they're saying that the way it currently is a bullet can't fire, seeing as how there isnt one where the hammer would strike.

Quantsini · 2004-01-21, 18:24

happy?
