Rofl, trying to usurp Fingolfin at his own game huh? Lol, a picture as a skin for your model rarely works. you usually need separate sections for certain parts of the model. Filesize is good, but... its such a simple model, so i can see why.... I would asy, 2/5, its usable, yes... but blurry and boxy

 

[chilla_killa]

Hm thanks anyway for your comment +rep

 

[ikillforeyou]

2 things, the skin could be a bit better, if you.. remove the white and manage to split the sections to make the skin into a square, and, uvw wrap the edges, aka, top, bottom, and even the back isn't uvw wrapped...

 

[chilla_killa]

What are the advantages of splitting the sections?
Why isn't the back UV-mapped?

 

[ikillforeyou]

splitting the sections, would save alot of filesize on the skin, considering its a box.. and you're only using half of the size of the box..

putting it as white doesn't make that unused space.


And look at the model, View attachment 64894

See? the sides and back are unwrapped...

 

[chilla_killa]

How can I UV map that? How can I select only these vertices?

 

[ikillforeyou]

No idea for milkshape, but i use "Gmax" and there's a tool called "Select face" (your might be select polygon)

You should use an in-game screenshot, as the shot you have looks horrific, and people might not notice how good it actually looks. I personally find it to be pretty nice as a Halo weapon/attachment, and even though Fingolfin's are probably better, this one compares well. 4.5/5 Highly Recommended

Yes, it would be better if they were properly unwrapped but meh...it is an attachment. How can we even see something like that ingame?
I can see it is a fine model and deserves +rape. I remember it having a different colour but meh...it's really nice.

 

[chilla_killa]

Thank you very much for the friendly and positive comments.
Of course Fingolfin is much better.
Rep for all who made comment

 

[Fingolfin]

Nice model!
Do you mind if i post my own version of this? I've had my mesh ready for quite a while, but i haven't bothered fixing the texture..
Btw, yours is up and down. ;D
The thing on the bottom is the scope. Though it almost looks a little better this way.
Also, great for so few polygons!

 

[chilla_killa]

Lol, yes you're right, now I realise it too
Sure you can, you're the master of HALO weapons.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

High-tech, cool. 5/5

Actually, he could just post a picture of a unit carrying this. Or use the model as a flying unit. That way, not only can people see how awesome this model looks, they know it works.

 

[DoogleMcDan]

thats so cool ive not seen to many halo models

 

[The Panda]

This looks awesome, just needs better decoration and/or realism of the "Beam Rifle"

 

[RiotZ]

another good halo model the skin needs slight improvement you can take fingolfin he doesnt even have a pack

 

[Soul Theft]
