Oniram

Thanks for the kind words all! A fun coincidence on that model Oniram

Update, refining shapes and adding details

this is looking cool. The issue that pops out at me is the handle on top. To hold that would be a bit awkward, compared to how current chainsaws are with top grip being perpendicular to the blade.

conveniently the first pick in google for chainsaw is for a zombie website hahaha.

Oniram

a couple friends and i argued that yesterday. saying that a perpendicular handle would provide more power to chop things down.. but it could be used either way, depending on the purpose. for using it, the perpendicular handle would work, but imagine running with it (if it were used as a weapon or something). a perpendicular handle would be kind of awkward to hold if you are trying to run.

but anyway. another thing that you may want to take not of is the bar going from the bottom handle to that center part. you may want to move it down or get rid of it. holding that handle while separating your fingers to make room for that bar would get annoying

Thanks for the replies guys!

Update, I ended up changing the handle on top it made much more sense
and some more detailing here and there.

Oniram

with those angles its kinda hard to see what u did with the top handle. could u post another pic of it angled down?

Just for you

LRoy

how are you doing the low poly bake? the teeth seem like they would eat up a lot of geo.

LRoy | Low poly bake should not be a problem.


Small update, working on a lot at the same time these day's, detailing the weapon more. Making the parts feel in place.

needs a scope and more tape on the grip

Those teeth look nasty! Great job.

I like the tape on the top grip... but I think you should add more home made mods to it... gives off that whole unique feel.
