M1911

Hello everyone, 

I am working on making this pistol.  I'm using a Remington M1911 model as my reference. This is only the second gun that I have made so I am still struggling on making some of the parts look like its real life counter part. Any thoughts or advice for me moving forward would be much appreciated. If you need any more information about my project I would gladly give it. This is my first time posting so I don't know how much to put here.

Here is my progress that I have made on this project since last week. I have most of the model done I just need to make the rest of the barrel piece then clean up some objects to add more detail. I think that it is coming along nicely. If you have any suggestions for me I would gladly hear them. Thank you.

Looks fine so far, Make sure you get plenty of references from all angles so you can see and break down all the different parts and how the connect together. If you plan to do a magazine, animate or take renders if the gun in action for it you should look for images on how the gun it put together including the inside components. 
Block out all the pieces like you have been doing and work on your high poly. Any issues will be easily noticed by users when your high poly is done.
