it's a good start...althoguh the bullets like a little out of proportion. Other than that it is great, keep it up:):hamster:

You dont really need that many polys on bullets for a weapon model and the smoothing groups are a bit funky but you can fix that up just before you export.

As for "caves" generally you do that with boolean operations which Milkshape doesnt support so in the past I've just built them up manuall. Of course the alternative is clever texturing.

So, I haveto use clever texturing?

What about anims?
Especially the reloading.. I really dont know how to...
I'll be soon releasing the textured or untextured version because I need help on the anims..

Splinter? Jennifer? :D

OH, i don't know why I didnt notice this before, not sure about the Finnish one's, but the Russian PPSs didn't use a belt fed system.
here is a fairly detailed photo, and the drum mag can be seen pretty easy: http://world.guns.ru/smg/ppsh41.jpg

You usualy don't see many belt fed SMGs.

This will solve your hole problem, the bullet size ratio issue, and reduce a lot of polys
