lol, ok

Murray_H · #3 09-07-2003, 08:58 PM

2495 polys for that?

Newton · #4 09-07-2003, 09:02 PM

That's a little high poly for it being so simple looking.

Private Snafu · #5 09-07-2003, 10:10 PM

there's a lot of smooth and gentle curves in the weapon, that's where all the poly's go.

The first one is the Colt Navy .45 Revolver, not the Colt Single Action Army.

)

I really don't like the grip

The barrel is too short and way too skinny, that looks like a .32 barrel not a .45. The shell ejector guide is way too long, it should only be about half the current length. The trigger and trigger guard are much too large. Andthe front sight post is a bit too big.

Does the modeling software youre using allow you to use a background image behind your model? is so try that with the picture that's posted in this thread and the proportions will be right on.

Anyhow, 2000 polys is alot better than before. Youre on the right track.

I had actually based it on this pic:
Note the same lenght of the ejector and barrel.

I'm of the opinion that not all Peacemakers are created equal (many of them were subject modification by their owners, as well as a variety of models being produced)

Newton · #12 10-07-2003, 02:48 PM

I would knock off some of the sides you used for the barrel, I'll bet that is contributing allot to the poly count. I would guess you used well over 18 sides on that cylinder for it.

Private Snafu · #13 10-07-2003, 03:12 PM

More like 40 sides

random.hero · #14 10-07-2003, 03:19 PM

no offence, but it looks like u'v used the extra polys for the sake of it.

Private Snafu · #15 10-07-2003, 04:02 PM

well, if i decide to improve the model after the initial mod release, then i'll probably fix that.
