The kind from Band of Brothers. Its the default .30 cal minus the dinky stock, I hackjobbed on a Garand stock to make it look more 1337 :D. I got this idea from reading another post somewhere.



This is the P model.



Feedback is appreciated :).



Thank You.

Ok well, its a nice creative endeavor, but it looks nothing like a 1919A6, refer to my post in the other thread.

The 1919A4 is exactly like the 1919A6 as far as design goes. You could mount a bipod on it, and I have seen many pictures of 1919A4's with bipods on them, especially from The Bulge.

Captain Dan

The 1919A6 could be mounted on a tripod in the exact same way as a 1919A4, they were no different.

Well, I'll tell ya plexis, the flash suppressor he added is about 8 times too long and narrow, it looks like a glorified silencer stuck on the end.

Pook2
03-21-2004, 08:22 PM
I say this with all seriousness, I think Dan is completely ignoring all the references we gave him, or he is too stupid to realize what he has to do.

Really Sorry for stealing your thread dude,
But i made a metal stock version aswell.

03-22-2004, 05:17 AM
That looks more like the real thing, except the flash hider.

Captain Dan
03-22-2004, 05:41 AM
perfect....... :mad:

Naturally, another one of my pieces is dissed and spat upon. Yes, I did take a look at the references you gave me, but that was the only flash hider i could find:(.



Good job, btw Splinter :).

"That looks more like the real thing, except the flash hider."

Thnx for the comment, but what is wrong with the flash hider? I followed the pics Andy gave.

Pook2
03-22-2004, 04:09 PM
Its not that we're not giving you a chance, its that you completely ignore references and advice. I said at least twice that the 1919A6 had a metal stock, yet you made it have a wooden one.

We showed you pictures of it, very clear pictures, yet you manage to put a flash hider on there that looks nothing like the real one. You could at least have left the flash hider completely off if it was gonna look like that.

IMO hackjobs are the worst looking thing you can do to a weapon, so I advise not doing it.

Bert2546
03-22-2004, 04:10 PM
is that the v_model? if not the flash hider is too big

Now that I look at it again, the flash hider is good, nwo I am more concerned with the bipod mount.

yeah, regardless of what people should try, as a community we need not to diss and call names because we cant use that think stuck in our head.

its quite obvoius that our friend Dan is new to the modeling world, so its nice to give CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISISM:)

anyhow it needs work, but ive yet to see a perfect one at the same time. I suggest that you eyeball those refs to down to the most detail if possible.

and with that his turns his collar of his trenchcoat up, and walks into the dock mist.

Not that i got close to the real master pieces some people made here but i had some of my original releases, my few own skins, my model tweaks, enhancements... etc... anyway i always try to be original and to create things... with all due respect i don't think (Andy Whyberd) that burning some default skins or even worse opening PS and lowering the brightness worth a release or feedback for that matter.

i don't hate you for that nor angry... i don't complain too but you need to take things into propotion, talking about chances doesn't really makes sense. no one is holding you from releasing anything but again... it's not like malarkey said something in the thread and people enter it and see ohh... malarkey doesn't like it lets move on, opening PS and moving the brightness bar does not take any skill or thinking, anyone that haves jed's HLMV could do it easly.

well in this case it's quite the same... too much questions, too much feedback and too much wierd angled screenshots, it's not such a complicated hack, i say if you want to release it just go ahead and release, it will be nice...
take it in propotion, it's not the release of your life niether some piece of art... sorry but a hack and such a simple one...
no1 is spiting on your works, practice more, check for reference pictures (hello mr images.google.com) and try tutorials more etc...
innovate.

personally i wouldn't open a WIP for such a small matter and if reference pictures is what you need just say what you plan to do and ask for pictures, im sure people would gladly help you.

Splinter mate it looks great but i would release it only after he released it :P you know... kinda a nasty hijack there my man ;-) (after all).

Arg, I write a lengthy reply and my computer goes and crashes on me. Ok, so here it is in a nutshell: Dan is obviously still learning, and I think if we want to keep this community alive, we should encourage one another rather than shooting him down, because he put a wooden stock on it rather than a metal one. And it's called a flash suppressor, not a flash hider. It's like when I hear someone calling an mp5 a "machine gun." Ok, carry on.

Captain Dan
03-23-2004, 07:46 PM

Yea, that gets me REALLY cheesed off. People who play video games and have the nerve to call the MP5 or the M16 "machine guns" are obviously playing the game for the killing and violence, and not for the history/interest in weaponry.



One of the reason why I like Firearms :).

EDIT: Its also like hearing people say "Tommygun" instead of "Thompson". WHAT IS SO HARD ABOUT SAYING THOMPSON ROFL???!!!1 :mad: :D ;).

The tommygun was a nickname, as it was used alot by British "Tommies".

Thompson - 8 Letters
Tommygun - 8 Letters

You're not escaping anything by typing it a different way.

It is called both, by many, many soldiers and gun enthusiasts.

Well, so what? Maybe some people dont play for those reasons, thats like saying, "Lets yell at people because they play soccer for the exercise and not the history and prestige of the game!"

And the "Tommy Gun" is the nick name for the Thompson submachine gun, it is a perfectly valid name to use. Besides, we all know what the person is talking about, so why does it ****ing matter?

Captain Dan
03-24-2004, 02:03 PM

and that's why, my friend, you wait until you get to high school and take world history and then argue that people didn't call the "Thompson" a "Tommygun"

if its so easy to just add on a metal thing and put on the correct flash suppressor why dont you do it yourself??

all I see you do here pook is request, request, request.

he's simply taking bits from other models and hackjobbing them on. If he cant find *exactly* what you want, he finds the nearest alternative. Dan's trying to help you guys out and your giving him ****.
