Hey guys, im working on a robot turret.

Reference by Sam Brown, im not going for 100% copy but using it as a base for concept. I wanted bigger/longer guns to make it look more imposing and a bigger frame, Got his permission

Im working on the Low Poly now, for the main turret middle where it has a beveled edge, can i just leave a single edge on the low poly or is it best to chamfer it for the normal map to get that smooth edge better?

That wasnt the low poly?

when painting the spec map for the paint areas, do you want it more towards white or black? Paint reflects right? So it would be more towards white

FullSynch

Paint doesn't reflect nearly as well as the exposed metal and scratches.

so i should definitely turn it down then, i feel as if i dont have enough contrast/color variety? Any Suggestions?
