[WIP] Current gun projects: MPX & NF1

Hello guys! 

The Sig MPX project is to focus on texturing and presentation. Having a very nice closeup and high-density texture is the goal of this project. This will means the polycounts and textures resolution will be very high. 

What I like

  • I think the base materials looks quite nice. It's nothing fancy. It consists of semi rusted steel and dust/dirt.
  • The way materials reflect the lights, it looks wet and shiny. It's exaggerating the shadows which give more depth. This definitely something I'm very of proud.
  • Getting the magazine to look transparent/clouded was very tricky. It doesn't look quite right yet so I'll be sure to do more adjusting.

Things to fix: XD

  • Increase unique wear & tear. 
  • It's missing an iron sight.
  • Need some easter egg. XD

Another gun project is the AA52 NF1 (Heavy Machinegun). 

This one is a model made for the "French Foreign Legion" mod for a popular game called 'Squad'. My goal for this project is to optimize the textures space and tri counts as much as possible. The status of the project is on highpoly. My next step is to take it to Zbrush and add unique dents and welding effects. The goal is to give the impression that the guns have been through countless battle. 

Hope you guys like it! Feeback is always welcome! Thanks! 

One more! I'll be going to my first GDC this week. I'm very excited to meet you guys!
