This model is a beast - 2574 polys infact and now I don't get 20fps with it ingame (THANKYOU 1.2!) I'm reskinning it :D

WiP - M1 Garand (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/m1garand_wip.jpg)

Be nice, this is my first proper origional skinning attempt and the moment I can't skin metal well at all so I expect I will be using someone else's. I will use Dillinger's gloves & sleeves.

Model: DOD Team, MaRzY, Grain
Animations: DOD team, Cpt Glimsharp

And what was your point ? :rolleyes:

Update: Pic (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/m1garand_wip1.jpg)

That wood looks real good.

Thankyou Maruader, just about the only ACTUAL feedback I've got in this thread.

*cough* Robski

Updateeeeeee!! (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/m1garand_wip2.jpg)

Quite a big update, so it deserves a whole new post.

Update no.3 (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/m1garand_wip3.jpg)

i really liek the wood, but the highlightning on the front part is quite different from the other parts, thats quite strange

Please explian further...

I know the lighting is too dark at the front of the lower section but otherwise I don't see what you mean.

:confused:

He means, if you follow the line of the highlight, it isn't a straight line, from front, to back.

Oh right... fixed.

yah i meant THAT :)

looks great keep up the gr8 work m8 it looks fantastic!!!!!!!

Wood is finished, just deciding whos metal to use.

Thx Andy :)

You don’t have many choices, there are only like 3 metals for that particular mesh.

Indeed, I have 2...

Might just learn how to do metal :rolleyes:

if you want to give it a go, have a look here first, it could get you started.

Thankyou but brutalization already gave me that link.

I just havn't had time lately, doing exams at the moment.

Expect this out next weekend.

Very nice looking, not sure if anything will replace brut's garand reskin (omg...the dark one....so hot...) but i'll have to get some screenies to see!

Good work!

Just thought you should all know I started again from scratch, its the same style but it now has a more complex wood pattern, is a marginally different shade of brown and has slightly higher contrast so you can see the new pattern! I've also added more scratches and dirt marks.

Updated WiP pics coming soon :)

Cool! Looks great anyway.

v2 WiP (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/wip_garand_v2-1.jpg)

C&C pls :)

wow looking verry nice Gen, keep it up

sexy, looks alot like grains too :D

Lol well thats odd, since I cant remember what grains looks like! :p

Although I'm taking that as a huge compliment because Grain is a fairly well known skinner.

WiP v2-2 (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/wip_garand_v2-2.jpg)

Great mate! Look forward to a release.....

Looking sweet :D

WiP v2 (pic3) (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/wip_garand_v2-3.jpg)

Another update.

Can anyone put a strap on it?

Nice..... a strap would make it even better...

Thinking of releasing two versions (http://robin.shatteredvision.co.uk/wip_garand_v2.jpg).

But need someone to do this (http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=34016).

redo the metal, my old one sux nuts :/

Well I gave it a slighty blueish tint after looking at some pics of real Garands and thinking about how the sky might change things, I'm perfectly happy with how that turned out. However I was going to ask brut on msn if he could do me some metal but hes working on some other secret things :p

Try skinning the metal yourself.

You might be real good at it.

Indeed I might :confused:

I will be releasing another skin for that Garand, think of it as a "v2". I will do the metal and all the other extras myself and of course a better wood texture.

Anyway, this has been released (http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=34095) so this thread is now officialy - dead.
