Hey guys, first time posting on polycount. I just started this project last week of the Six Twelve Shotgun with a salvo suppressed barrel

I'll be alternating Wire-frame and Turbo-smoothed models, These are still my mid polys so i haven't optimized them yet. Let me know about any inaccuracies/problems you notice, thanks:

Thanks For the Crit! I Made some adjustments and got rid of the bruising

Ive also refined the stock and action a bit:

I forgot to show these as their own objects earlier. Here is the Chamber and shotgun shell (I used a 3" shell):

I changed all the sharp edges on the midpoly so i can use face weighted normals once I make my low poly

I've made a lot of adjustments, mostly cuts and added details:

Changing the Geo has caused some problem spots, I've fixed most, but I havent gotten around to tackling these yet

Looking good dude. Those pinching spots on the high poly are always a pain in the ass. However you will learn a lot about high poly modeling techniques by finding solutions to fix those areas.

Looking forward to more.

Thanks Vertex!

I've made some various adjustments to parts of the gun, mostly regarding champher sizes

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/vt/iehmcwl33293.jpg

The most edits have been to the stock area, as The gaps present before would have required a bunch of unnecessary geo to need UV space

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/gs/aq3yq3wao6ik.jpg

I've made progress in preparation for my low poly, by removing a large amount of unnecessary loops in my midpoly.

I'm still having issues with the rail, I cant quite seem to be able to get rid of the warping near the edges of the raised parts of the rail:

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/iz/9y7rck6q4ytl.jpg

I seem to see less warping on my midpoly:

Ive started making low poly of all the pieces, here are the ones I've done so far:

But my low poly Stock isn't reading right, Most of the triangles are on A flat surface, and re weighting the normals doesn't even fix the problem:

After a hiatus I'm returning to this prop. First with better UVs than before, I wasn't allowing any shared space before, but now symmetrical pieces have shared UV space:

Hey - really dig the model, and you have some really clean bakes! If I were you, I'd focus more on material definition. As of right now, the whole gun looks like it's the same material minus the stands on the bottom. There's also no wear and aging at all which sets none of the parts of the gun apart from one another and just isn't natural looking for a weapon.

Sure, clean guns are possible in the world, but some of the best advice given to me is (if this is for a portfolio piece) nothing is as boring as a clean asset. Show your skills, make that shiz pop! You'll get noticed more.
