The Order 1886 Fanart - Pneumatic Rifle (looking for critiques)

Kn5743

Started modeling this concept by Anton Lavrushkin.


This is what I have so far for my high poly.  I still have a ways to go but I figured I should post now to make sure things are looking okay.

I'm trying to figure out where this tubing attaches.  I think it's attached to the pipe but I'm not sure.  What do you guys think?



Also almost done with the high poly now.  Just have a few more things and the screws.

Almost done with the high poly now.  What's the best way to do the etching on the base above the trigger guard?  Should I do it in Zbrush or just add it later in Substance Painter?

gfelton

You could do it as floating geometry and bake it into the normals.

For fine detailing, I would just throw it Substance or NDo. I find the process faster and easier on my hardware than pumping the model resolution up enough to properly display the etching.

Kn5743

Alright,  I figured that would be the easiest way to do it.  Thanks!

Working on the low poly now.  Still have some areas to reduce.

Really awesome so far.  Can't wait to see more progress.

Robert Berrier

Cool concept piece. and your also going strong on the modelling!

Kn5743

Thanks guys!  Got some time to get back to working on this.  Pretty much done with baking.  Here's what it looks like with a test bake and some materials thrown on.

Got some texturing done.

Looking great so far man! The bake came out great too. I'm sure you're still working it. Definitely work on the wood texture, I feel like the wood could be tiled a little bit more, then give it that reddish brown tint that cherry wood has and increase the height or normals a pinch. The roughness for the wood could also be turned down a notch too, it's a bit glossier in the reference.

@theonewhoknocks Thanks!  I made some changes to the wood and finished texturing a few more areas.  Here's a few more shots.

Good work, what are you texturing with? 

Kn5743

Thanks everyone!  @jaker3278 I'm using Substance Painter for texturing and NDO for added normal details.

jaker3278

Thanks @Kn5743 Nice one thats what i use quite a bit to. Keep up the good work, Whats your next project going to be? 

Kn5743

@jaker3278  I've been thinking of doing a vehicle for a while now so that'll probably be next.

nice! what did you render the finals in? I notice a lot of artifacts. Not really doing justice to such a fine model.

AXEL

Looks awesome!
What artifacts do you see ?
What material/how did u do the glass for the scope ?

The Rizzler

Great choice of concept, what an amazing design. Poly distribution looks good, what's the final polycount? Nice work 

Kn5743

@Tomiajayi  I'm using Marmoset for the renders.  What artifacts do you see?

@AXEL Thanks! I just used a super reflective dark material for the scope and then added some dirt around the edges.

Yeah, Anton did a really awesome job on the design.  The final polycount is a little less then 28k.

mostly i'd say check out your anti aliasing, especially around the perimeter of the object with dof behind it.

Isunoj

Looks very cool!

@Kn5743Wow thats so facking good man!  nice! Hope its not off putting, but maybe the wood is a little too dry or something, thats the only thing holding it back from being a million/10 lol

else its awesome regardless C: much of the loves
