Alright Ill give it a shot. Two more questions. 1. Do I need the ray distance calculator if I use a setup cage? 2. Any tips on setting up the cage on my exploded weapon easier?
I'm not an expert in weapon modeling so no particular critic to make. The only thing that bugs me is the huge amount of tris spent on bolts and screw-type meshes. It just the kind of details that you want to put in the normal map.

Sir, you never ever cease to amaze me... the care and detail in your sculpts are simply a joy to look at. Would it be possible to see you streamin or recording your process for say a piece of clothing or even a weapon or prop?
Got assigned to make projectile weapons for my Unity class. So, super fun arm cannons <3 I'm excited Heavy influences from Sci Fi games and Huke's Black Rock Shooter character designs
i think the best way for this to work, is if it doesn't focus on any one particular area. that each section of the study is based on something different, so... could be weapons first, then say... a set of hands (sculpting), and then an environment prop, and then a head...

Seforin; im going to bestow unto you the secret weapon of the masters; The only thing that would come close to the viceral and complete experience of the NES Advantage would be to rig your dick and button smash your balls! booyah!
Do you have concept art or a screenshot of this somewhere? I don't recall the Quake4 pistol looking like that. Actually I don't recall a pistol in Quake4 at all? I thought your default weapon was an assault rifle?
