here is the start of my minigun model
i’m gonna have fun making this
any comments on the mesh?
why ao ? because it looks cooler
Looks pretty good. Maybe add some rifling grooves in the barrels.
i don’t think firing grooves would be usefull in this anim and it would take a little effort to put it inside the barrels
ah hell i’ll put em in…although i won’t do it for eacht barrel seperatly
it might give the barrels an incredibly high poly count but hell
EDIT : i think a nor map would do a better job and speed things up
ya…that might be good :] and it would prolly look just as spiffy.
just a thought…maybe add some bolts ?
hnnn? why bolts? this usually is welded together methinks
i might add bolts at the other end…or make it more futuristic…i dunno i’ll see how it’ll work out
alright finally…and i’ve decided it ain’t gonna be an ordinary minigun
it’s gonna be kinda futuristic as in : rail firing system, fusion powered and it’s gonna be mounted on a mech
and i changed the barrels to curves not mesh as i have done with some other round parts…it makes it a lot easier
i’m now beginning work on the rear, electronics and power source and the hull
after that i will begin work on a mech…i guess resembling a mad dog in some parts
i’m also aiming to not just make a outside but also make the thing possible and engineered(kinda) not just an empty hull
seeing i don’t have any building plans i’m gonna try and make my own solutions
the wire
Looks good. It reminds me of the inside of a heat exchanger, or chiller.
