ET - CZ Bren 805

caelumstudio

Hi, I would like to show what I'm doing in my free time. It's CZ Bren 805 A1 with Surefire noise suppressor (default muzzle brake is ugly :poly142:). I have finished the high poly model and micro details will be added via normal map. I wanna focus on textures (PBR) before adding any accessories. Feel free to give critiques or suggestions.

Hmm. Just a quick thought. If you post some images you used as ref it'll help with quicker critique on the model.

I've edited the post, I forgot about that. Thanks for telling, beefaroni

The pistol grip does have different bottom end in the real version it seems , and the magazine is too small, the bottom end of it looks disproportional big because the main mag body is too thin

your belt strap handles seem a little longer aswell
Barrel maybe 10-15% thicker

Aside, a bunch of edges could be softer , but looking good so far

Very nice model

but i would make the muzzle brake anyway - the newer bren has this A2 muzzle brake or just make some new surefire one (they got nice ones too)

A2 bren has few new things like new charging handle and mainly the Stanag lower that can load the nato magazines

Good spot Shrike. I'm fixing some parts including the edges, it's indeed a bit too hard. For the magazine, I'll change it with m4 based on RobertHammer's links. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks man! The newer muzzle brake looks cool, I'll go with the newer default A2. Oh, the reference is on Czech site, no wonder I can't find the m4 lower reference. Drum magazine for this time . I guess the official site is still displaying older parts. They are different from the ShotShow

Hi Gazu, I use Maya and Mental Ray with simple light setup, nothing fancy.

I have updated many parts such as charging handle, grip, muzzle brake, stanag lower, stock angle, magazine, edge loops, etc. Next I'll do paint over to add personality and color to the gun.
