Hey guys, I will be starting off by going for the covert skin, the ak-47, this is the weapon I use the most, and I would love to be able to play with my own ak-47! Will be posting progression pictures soon!
Finished product
Moodboard, with all the refference images used for the gun
First off I am starting off with the linework for the gun
I am contouring a very early, rough shape of the weapon, Next up I decide what kind of material and color I want to use for the gun.
I decided to go for a Bright red for the main body, which will probably still be mixed with a lot of different colors when moving forward, For the metal Lining I decided to go for a alluminium kind of texture. Note this is still a very early sketch of what I'm planning to do.
Moving on I started adding some smaller details, while experimenting with the direction I want to move forward in.
I made some line patterns to add some detail, and background to the gun. Maybe the badge with the white skull doesn't fit, so I might still remove that.
I am liking how the colorscheme is turning out to be, I will probaby keep going forward with these colors.
Here is a top-down position of the linework I did for the alluminium.
Next up I removed some old concepts, and added some other b righter details, I feel like I'm going in a good direction, here is a quick render of how it's looking so far.
Next up I will be taking a break off working on the body, the grip needs some love! I need some sleep now, the skin is 40% done.

Render might be a little too bright on the top, looks different and better in-game. Next up I will be working on the blue grip parts, they will need a lot more detail to make the gun stand out!
I wanted to have the same amount of color variation on the skin, or even more.
I think it would be nice if the lines on the magazine could be more obvious, because it would make it stand out a little more.
Not sure about the name yet, I'll think of that when I finish the gun, the magazine isen't done yet! The lines on it are mostly just a background surface right now, might make them stand out more though, good point!
Update to the skin will be comming soon!
Nevermind, just saw you replied to someone else about it. That's really impressive, well done.
Progress, finished the body, added some more detial to the top grip, and some more detail to the magazine, I'm getting close to finishing it!

Out of curiosity, how did get the images to be embedded on the site, whenever I attempt to do it it comes up with an icon that you need to click on.
Cheers,
