Workshop #04 - NBLM

NBLM · May 2010

Hi, this my first post here at polycount, but i am not new i visiting this forum for ages.

I started with this workshop as so many other to improve my modelling skills.
So this will be my second gun i make. I hope i can get some feedback.

I have begun at the inner handle and then extrude my edges outwards.
I am now trying to nail down the shapes of the gun, and of course rework
some areas that smooth poorly (grip).

Thanks, chris.

Well, i redone some areas. Now i am
trying to remove all bumps i can see on the grip.Moving the verts in and out ,which is a pain :poly127: to do.

Is there no other way ? huh

Whenever I get into a similar situation, and have to do vert-to-vert work, I try to figure out another way. That will make me crazy

Try deleting the red lines, THEN bevel the blue line. It will average-out the verts and make this much easier. I've been using this technique all over the place to automatically remove and smooth indents and stuff. I find that deleting and re-drawing edges (somehow) is usually easier than trying to manipulate all of them. Its been working for me so far

Oh, and its coming along nicely

Keep in mind that the two sides ARN'T symmetrical. Mainly around the bolt.
