Flash supressor and some other parts of the upper receiver could have more thickness. I also think that some of the edges are too sharp.

John, Yup

flash suppressor should have more thickness, Thank.Hhmmm i don't think so some edges are too sharp.
Can you tell me how to put artstation link at my profile as you have?

Do you mean MG-42? Nice progress so far. I think you should try doing more of a block out mesh before subdividing everything! That lets you get the size, the shape, the silhouette done first, then subdivide and add the details. Makes proportions faster, more accurate, and even lets you get animation/blockout started without animators having to wait for the low poly. If you subdivide and detail everything right away, then realize it's way out of proportion or modeled wrong, that's a lot of time wasted if you have to redo it! Think of it as a mid-to-low polygon mesh. My 2¢

I think you mixed some parts of mg42 with more modern mg3, the flash suppressor part definitely looks like of mg3.

sheheryar_noor · Apr 2017

Artzian, flash suppressor is going to be changed. It is my own model. I didn't even know that Mg42,Mg43 and Mg3.
What i notcied is Mg3 has 2 cuts in the suppressor http://prntscr.com/f048x3, while mg42 suppressor does not have any cut. http://image.prntscr.com/image/ac994d3f18d5464dac42010b0844119b.png <mg42 suppressor.
Another difference i noticed is mg3 suppressor is half sphere at end while mg42 is not half sphere and is extruded cylinder. http://i39.tinypic.com/x1eo8z.jpg

Correct me please if i am wrong.

Yup i meant MG-42. I should change its name

. It kinda looks out of proportion to me also but i have followed this reference image and it totally fits on the ref. http://image.prntscr.com/image/82fb98970b0c429db9cc4333890c89c4.png
