Remington Riotgun

Hello
This is my latest work, comments and critics most welcome.

Tris: 1200
Maps: Normal, Diffuse, Spec 2048
Software: Maya

It looks good But there seems to be some kind of error in the normal map. I could be wrong though. Adding a bit more scratches on the right places on the metal wouldn't hurt either. There is also a clear seam on the top of the wooden handle.

thanks for your reply Wee.
Yes the grip does actually have ugley seams (did not think anyone would notice).
Problem is if I redo the UVs at grip I pretty much have to redo most of other maps =(.

I am not so sure I will put so much more scratch into the gun, well maybe a little.

Hey hobbyist, I think the seam on the wooden handle wouldn't require too much work to fix. It's only a texture seam so the extra work is manageable. Matching wood grain up can be pretty tricky but it's definitely a skill worth learning because this problem will certainly come up again.

To me your model doesnt look right there are alot of images that have a diffrent handle like this one.

no safety on the riotgun?

I was thinking that too. The pistol grip that hobbyist modeled would be made of polymer plastic and would most likely be accompanied with a polymer pump. Wood would most likely be reserved for the full size that you pictured, which probably wouldn't be used in a riot situation.

Thanks for your reply.

I am in a total redoing of textures. The reference I use was this one.



I found this AK-47 on the internet with a wornout texture style I like. He did not mention who he is but anyhow I think it looks good.

That AK def looks great. I think the main thing it has going for it is a huge range of contrast in the diffuse and spec maps, giving it more visual appeal. But for the love of god, that copper /bronze magazine is hideous.
