[SWIP] New Hi-Res Photorealistic Garand Reskin

Just started working on this, it's using Nomad's M1 model, put a new photorealistic wood texture on it just to try it out and it looks pretty nice. I also centered up the circle dent on the sights, because in Nomad's original model, it's off-center which drove me absolutely insane. Other things include darkened metal and better shell textures seen in the clip.

Not sure if anyone is interested in this, but once I finish, I'll be sure to release if anyone wants it.

Nomad's model has had this horrible lighting problem at the end of the barrel where the wood lighting was off. Always irked me.

That's weird! Well I'm glad I fixed it I guess haha.

I can release this pretty soon, I just need to work out a small problem, the mesh is really terrible on the back right behind the receiver and it stretches the skin so much it looses it's sharpness and color and stretches it into these ridiculous dark purple and dark green shades. It's really making me mad, and I haven't came to a conclusion of how to fix it yet, but once I do, I'll release.

Is there any chance that you're gonna do a reskin on every weapon model?

Cause every one you've released so far, has been damn good, not to mention that I've used them all.

Trigger, thanks for the kind remarks :) You yourself release quality stuff as well, I am very thankful for it.

And I just double-checked your post and saw that it's now in .mdl format, so I will indeed have a go at skinning it :D

Awsome work dillinger! Anyway im glad trigger posted here requesting for you to do his model and im happy your gonna do it! :D Great work as usual.

hey dillinger nice garand skinning man, makes my legs shake just at the thought of whacking nazis with it! :D
If this is a too big of a request to fulfill, just ignore it, but if u can, can u put the new reload animation for the garand? that would mean u have the realistic wood texture, corrected circle, better shell texture, AND GARAND ANIM... THAT WOULD ROCK, I WOULD USE IT FOREVER! THX

Anyone want to tell me how to add animations to existing models? I really want to add Glim's new reload animation to this, but I am afraid that it takes editing with Milkshape or something, which I know nothing about :(

put that skin on Triggers Model!!!!!!!!!!!!!

06-13-2003, 12:43 PM
It looks pretty good so far, my only suggestion would be too use the latest version of my metal for the Garand.

06-13-2003, 12:45 PM
This is great......but I still prefer Poly's Garand.
