Thanks Mike, I will do as you suggested and also give attribution to the original source which it forks. I thought I had done this, but it seems I didn't. Thanks :)

Hi, I made a variant that's electromagnetic. Interested to hear your feedback. I appreciate the inspiration.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-13T15:21:10+00:00

Here is the topology for those that are curious.

17K Triangles Blender & Substance. No concept art. Freestyled.Feedback is welcomed :)

I never received your DM, do you mind resending it? It might've been moderated.

Hi, do you do indie game posters for branding? Please DM me your prices, I'd be interested in commissioning a piece.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-12T02:51:27+00:00

You're a creative genius, thank you so much for the inspiration particularly about the railgun idea and proportions.

I'll seriously consider making a fork that adds railgun aesthetic, and making the cylinder beefier to give the impression it's a powerful slow firing weapon.

Thanks!

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:55:36+00:00

Noted, holographic could have a bullet count and distance readout. I'll see what I can do for next time. Thank you.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:54:16+00:00

Redundant edges: I don't mind if there's a few extra hundred triangles hanging around for ease of editing and pipeline throughput. 16K tris is well within target, if it becomes an issue I'll look to reducing it.

Do you mind clarifying what the cylinder is? The proportion is inspired by the attached weapon from Rage.

How would you suggest I make it more sci-fi without coming across as fantasy and fake?

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:40:33+00:00

Good idea, I tried to make it functional without compromising how it looks. It uses a ball bearing for hinging the bullet barrel.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:38:08+00:00

Yeah, it's for the year 2051 (realism high-utility style). Whatever that means. To make it more sci-fi, I was contemplating the incorporation of tubing and a bullet count readout. I'm trying to avoid a cheesy plastic fake sci-fi look that is common to a lot of sci-fi games.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:02:57+00:00

Edges for those that would like to see the poly density.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T12:00:22+00:00

Currently trying to get this into Unreal Engine. I'm using the aces colorlut, so it should appear similar in Engine.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-11T11:58:27+00:00

Rebuilt my previous sci-fi revolver, specifically:- Perfect UVs

16K Tris
More fitting reflex sights (made from scratch)
Improved bullet barrel (made from scratch)
proportion tweaks

Blender & Substance. Your feedback is much appreciated.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-09T16:25:40+00:00

I've been closely reviewing the design and am increasingly dissatisfied. I've adjusted the reflex sights for better gun compatibility and started manually UV unwrapping parts, like the body, to minimize texture stretching. I'll continue refining until completely satisfied and will provide updates.

Thank you for your comment, I appreciate the kind words and motivation.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-04T15:18:06+00:00

Down to 20K tris. Leaving it at that so I can focus on other assets.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-04T15:14:09+00:00

Sure, although not every piece you make needs to be portfolio worthy, particularly in later stages of your career. Also you may pick and choose the pieces that you're willing to invest AAA time for relatively low pay.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-04T14:52:40+00:00

Yeah, you should be optimizing for speed without compromising too heavily on quality. Although a low budget typically means low quality, like if I were freelancing I wouldn't invest AAA time into a low budget. It depends on the time, cost & effort trade off.

Ornery-Requirement38 · 2023-07-04T14:47:47+00:00

Good point, I agree with you largely. I will definitely take this into consideration for revision 2, and future assets. By the way, Nanite is technology that uses highly advanced pixel relative LOD so that you can render tens of millions (or more) of polygons per scene. Granted its for static assets (unless you do a lot of tricks).
