so i sort of wanted to make a weapon, started searching for reference pictures and i bumped into a pretty cool 24 layer picture where you could mix different parts of weapons, i made this and then i started modeling it and by now it looks like this

i think it looks ok, still needs some more detail...and the rest of the gun.

Looks a lot like the M4 with the M203 grenade launcher, and folding stock.

Are the people using this gun possessing three arms?

It looks cool and all, but ... what would be the point of having a machine gun/crappy rifle combined with a shotgun? Fire aimless rounds at someone until you get close enough so you can dismember them? You'd have "spray" and "more spray". Unless it was an accurate shotgun, of course, but it doesn't look like it from the picture.

Oh well.


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

It's not a shotgun, but a grenade launcher. The British SAS used that particular gun in the first Gulf War (if I'm remembering correctly). As far as I know the rifle grenade launcher was a pretty effective/deadly combination. I've never used one, but I'm assuming that it would be pretty easy to move your left hand (that you use to steady the rifle while firing normally) down to the second trigger when needed..

This, which I imagine is what that model will turn into.

Ohhh haha I have no idea how that would be used. I thought you were referring to the reference photograph I posted.

What program are you using agian? I'm tryin to do stuff with XSI, but all the tutorials are s**tty, and I just can't get started. I can't find a place that will tell me how to make a polygon. It's quite frustrating.

i am using xsi, try to draw some curves and then make sure theyre closed(by selecting the curve and and go to Modify->Curve->open/close) and then go to Get->Polymesh->curve to mesh, then you can play around with the settings and xtrude edges and bevel them...thats how i made the pony, and all the other stuff.

looking better.

the top of the middle part combined with the new barrel remind me the thompson sub-machine gun in games like DoD.

Looks great, but im not a fan of fantasy weapons...

Why not try a real weapon. that one seems to be a cross of a Colt and a HK weapon. With som FNC touch to it...
