Perhaps more contrast on the metal, it looks rather flat. Make it shinier.

Me likes. I can host it for you till one of the dod sites mirror it if you want.

- Ska

Don´t make it shinier, the skin is perfect. Shiny weapons are thug style.

Yeah, the metal doesnt reflect that much light, it is rather flat.

Buff it up just a wee bit and it'll be golden!

IMO > Shiny metal looks arse on k98s because the model is really not a smooth enough curve.

Looks great to me, has subtlety.

hmm ok i think ill release 2 versions, one with shinier metal (not too mafia style shiny just proper ww2 shiny) and one te way it is

yah great as always mate :)

ok i added more contrast to the metal and it doesnt look all that bad i think but anyway heres how the 2wo versions will be...

That´s great, just release them as they are right now, no further modifications needed imo... except maybe new sleeves ;x

Too much!

I liked the first better.

:) :D

omg, juicy! i really like them. i, like many others (i belive) are in need of a good k98 skin, gj brut.

personally, i would like to see more contrast/highlights, maybe i will have a go myself just for my own use.

2 looks a bit better.

Metal is supposed to reflect some light :p

OMG! Put that texture on a scoped 98k too!

Both of them look great!

Make pee wees to go along with it a 98k scope also.

lol, 'cause it's the only thing he does say

great job brutal :)

I don't understand whats with the dod model community not making pee wees to go along with their model.

umm... it's kinda hard

The "vee" (lol) model got all of it's backfaces deleted and so you must model them and remesh the model before you can try to convert them to p/w models.

The current p/w models are kinda super low poly and they got a totaly diffrent mesh so people usualy don't really care about them.
Also what you see on your screen all the time in a large close up is the v model and most of the people don't really care about that small w/p model they see... and im acctualy not one of thoses guys but i can understand why people don't work on them.

also the fact i am only a skinner, making "pee wees" would be way too hard for me.
It was a bugger getting that thing to render because of the missign backfaces, took so much photoshop editing hehe

umm... it's kinda hard It’s not that hard. All you really need to do is skin the current P & W with a similar color scheme as the V model. It’s not hard at all. Check out my Garand skin(link in my sig)The P & W models included are a completely different model and mesh yet they match very well.

Whatever happened to this.

it got released a long time ago:):rolleyes:

Its not finished it needs pee wees and a scoped k98.

Looks like someone deleted my post or it went poof

Cause I asked if you were gonna do the scoped one aswell. I sent to the reference and all....

Umm no? Just load up the reference, delete all the parts of the gun that are on both sides so your left with a 'half' model. Then mirror all and export it. Then load up the original reference again and import the 'half' .smd without bones and move it (you should only have to move it along the X axis) till it fits properly and then export.

Works fine because I did that for my current garand. The reference was missing pretty much all of the right side of the gun and on the new animations you could see right through the gun.

i think what he's trying to say is that some guns look different on each side so you'd have to do all that

plus lots of model have faces deleted on both sides.

cant duplicate something that isnt there :rolleyes:
