Your normals are looking bad. Your hard edges are way too sharp. Did you notice in Joe Wilson's tutorial that he specifically notes that for mipmaps (aka Level of Details), the round edges are best because they look better at lower LODs? You can fix this. You need to soften the hard edges of your high poly pistol. Please…
Modeling: Maya 2018 Texturing: Photoshop CS 6 First, sorry to not rendering this. I do not mean to ignore your advice. I simply feel confusing to understand the interface of Unreal Engine and Maya 2018 rendering system. Maya 2018 is very powerful; but seems it changed a lot from 2015. I am working on it.

So far I understood these are my homework for gun: 1. Understand how to bevel to catch the light: understand concept of control loop -> So far I understand, I shall…
@Brian "Panda" Choi Thanks Brian. I actually feel shy when I read your comment. You are right; when I did my uv map and texturing; I was frustrated; and wanted to move on which was not a nice attitude. My work is not good enough it is not because of lack of skill (well, I do but). But, maybe because I lost my focus during…
