Easy. Just create cylinder with enough sides. The barrel cover has 8 holes, and I used 4 polygons for one hole. so the cylinder needs 32 polygons. Create the holes with 10 similar polygons using the inset function on the 4 polygons and align them... Thanks. I thought about creating one, maybe in the future.
Inspiration overwhelming. Started knocking polygons together on this spider-bro yesterday. and you can see me model it here. http://www.twitch.tv/wahlgrenus/
