Looks pretty cool, some textures would liven things up. The butt of the gun looks too corner-y IMO

I agree about the corner-y-ness, however overall it looks like an excellent model considering it's only 460 polys.

May I ask which version of 3ds you're using?

Version 4(.2 I think). The M-16 is suppose to have that sharper corner at the butt, but its still rounded out, just the angle isn't exactly right. Maybe I should get board more often. Nah.

You're getting better, but there's no excuse for the polycount.

How do you find the polycount in 3dsmax? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif]

Yes there is. There's WAY too many polygons for the level of detail. Now, if it were for JK, it'd be silly to have that number of polygons for such a low detail weapon. (not intending to show anyone up) I could do it in about 150-300 polygons, easily. 450 is quite high for it's detail.

Pffft. Amateur. I could easily do that in 6 or 7 polygons.

Most of the polys are around the barrel. I need to cut that down from 22 to 16 sides. I still haven't found out a way to count triagnles in 3ds max.
