M416 Help

[julianbraso]

Hi, i've done an M416 on 3ds max but i really don't know how to texture it, if someone could help me out here i would be very thankful.
p.s: i know it has some fails on the modeling, so if anyone could point them out, and help me fix them, that would be awesome too. thanks in advance

your likely to get more feedback if you post some screens of the model, downloads are sketchy and take way to much effort

as for texturing, racer445 and stephan morrell have super hardsurface texturing tutorials.

Oh, okay, thanks for the response, i didn't post screenshots of the model because i didn't think they would be necessary but you're right. about those tutorials, should i search them on google or here in the forum?

[julianbraso]

no one? please!

Search for Racer455 ak74 tutorial, it's a touch old (and he admits slightly dodgy tutorial now) but it's probably still one of the best around, although his website is down there are some forums and other http hosting sites. He goes through everything from setting up reference planes to baking normal maps. it's quite large size and quite long but it's well worth a look.

[julianbraso]

[julianbraso]

wow, thank you a lot really, i was seeing the results of the tutorial and they're amazing i really want to try that tutorial

[Exetus]

NP, I like to hold onto them all because I need to sometimes reference them to remember...

Old man syndrome.

Note - About 1 1/3 hours to upload as complete is almost 4 GB.

I am currently working on a long list of models, Hence learning from all tutorials I can, I will also upload the Beretta and Glock tutorials, while not as useful overall they show different ways to model.

i'll be waiting for them then would you put the texturing step? (that's where my weapons get ugly, my texturing sucks)
