Yep. You can never have to many M1's :) .

This is going to be mostly the same thing as my last Garand(link in sig) but with a sling, dirtied wood, different allies sleeve(not sure which one yet, open to suggestions), and some modifications to the metal.

I am not making a completely new wood skin I am simply going to modify the old one, maybe make several color and lightness variations.


Eye candy:

thats actually pretty nice looking :)


love the sling :)

nice detail, but as you said...diffrent sleeves. I'm not a fan of those.

Looks good except for the sleeves...

Those are the axis sleeves in that pic.

These are the Current allies sleeves which I intend to change. What do you suggest as an alternative?

reminds me of a garand i had a while ago, looks exactly the same tbh :/ thats a good thing though :)

i would advise these sleeves for axis, of course ;)

I'll consider those sleeves, not sure about them. How about allies’ sleeves?

Here’s my first go at dirtying it. I may redo it or touch it up.

looks cool, the dirtyness/grungyness seems pretty realistic.

just wondering, would it be possible to edit the saturation, brightness, contrast etcafter and release 2 coloured versions, cos i would like to see .. maybe a reddish wood garand. just a thought

Yeah that would be really simple to do. I also like a bit of a reddish tinge to so I'll definitely be making a red variation.

Hey thats the Garand I released yesterday , we do have similar wood styles! :)

All I could see wrong with that was some inconsistencies between the front and middle wood textures (skin1.bmp and wood3.bmp I think) in brightness (front is less shadowed) and grain (front looks thicker).

Now you have inspired me to make a dark n' dirty version of mine :D

hey, nice sling....looks familiar... ;)

Nice Garand grain. Check your PMs :)

Just make sure to put $cliptotextures in the QC file if you decompile and recompile that way it keeps the textures the same size. However don’t worry about that if you just use HLMV to import the textures.

Which Sleeve?

i like number 3's the best, but i also liek the glove texured hands

Red variation.

Sleeve 1!

no, don't use the call of duty sleeve textures :/

yay, the red looks good tbh

release!


so i can slap my skin on it :)

i love it !!!!


now i gotta choose between this 1 and Rotzbua's Garand



:( :( :(

Still gr8 Work m8

1 or 3 for the sleeves. Not so keen on the redness...

:( :( :(

When its released im going to slap my skin on it i think cuz it has nearly the same meshes as the old one from grain i think :)

yay im saved!!!

Update:

Man not CoD sleeves...

Could always put your own sleeve on....

Are these sleeves better? Personally I like them more than the others.

Also made some changes to the skin:
Re-did the dirt on the main wood piece.
Desaturated and darkened the red version ( as seen in pic)
And darkened the brown skin as well.

The forward wood piece looks brighter than the rest for some reason. I’ll have to see how it looks in game, I may darken it further.

I personally like sleeve #3 the best. Looks good so far, but could we get some in-game screens? I'm curious as to what hell fov will wreak with this model. Ugh, SATs tommorow, too tired to spell right....

Here is an in game shot of the old one. The model hasn’t changed except for the added sling.

Don't like those other ones. But this is looking promising, if you need it hosted when you finish send it to: speirs@dodec.hlgaming.com

Ok finally done.

Now I suppose you guys will want PeeWee's. :(

Here's (http://home.comcast.net/~pvt.malarkey/PWGarand.zip) Sp|inter's p/w models for the default garand that i fixed up. It's still kinda messed and the wood isn't using your high resolution mesh but, eh, you can atleast get the metal on

PeeWees

Ok, got it, will be on soon along with a huge update on dodec.

Use the number 1 sleeves!!!!!! I have Band of Brother's (the modeler not the show lol) models with those sleeves on almost all my allied weapons....and they are wonderful!!!!!
