Korean double barrelled gun

Hi, I decided to practice hard surfaces combined with organic shapes, and this gun had both.

It is based on a movie called no sympathy for lady vengeance.











sorry for the lines it is a maya viewport grab.
crits are welcome.

I will create a low poly version. Is it better to bake in maya or any other software?

Nothing quite like Park Chan-Wook's Vengeance trilogy to lower your opinion of humanity.

Maya's normal map baking tool is a bit finicky and terribly slow. You can get ok maps out of it, but you'd probably be quicker to pump them through XNormal.

that's how the original was...he said it's from the movie (if you havent seen it, do, it's a nice movie)

Here are the references. It has a two barrels and two triggers for each. Good movie by the way. In fact the whole vengeance trilogy is a masterpiece.

you could work on the thickness of the grip/handle because its more curvy and not evenly thick everywhere gl nice start gl hf

I feel like the edges on your high poly are way to sharp, if you look at high poly models created by other people here on polycount you'll notice the edges are often rather soften and sometimes pretty plastic looking. As far as I know this is done for the baking process, to improve the readability. And I remember (think it was Racer?) seeing an image of a red dot sight showing how it improves anti-aliasing, if your model is to sharp it'll give more aliasing from a distance.

I also think you might wanna redo the silver detailing on the handle, it's a bit blobby at the moment.

Interesting weapon/model though, keep it up.

nicafornica

yes i will redo the silver detail. I need to brush up on my zbrush first. I will redo the hard edges as well, or remove the extra detail edges.

Really wish I could see this from work! I will be checking this out!
