I'll post the smoothed version to marrow. In the mean time, can any one guess how many polys?

200?

...Thanks for the high opinion. 1700.

looks nice

1700 !!!!!!! it looks like 500 to me but anyway, good for a second model:)

i have posted my second one on moddb something like 6-7 months ago, it was an mp5sd3 and... it was a bit crappy:D (and it had a shitload of polygons:P)

1101...

Not bad for your second model

You need to work on getting the polycount down though.

what puts the poly count up?

Adding more polys....

I take it you don't know much about moddeling

NO

Tell me, TELL ME !!!

Ok, Polygons are 2d shapes with more than 2 sides (bit of maths there). But the only polygons that video cards/games support are triangles, so in modelling polys=triangles. Models are made up of polygons.

k... so when he said he used 1700 polys.. he useed 1700 different shapes ?

that model is made up of 1700 triangles yes.

nice job

That will give you a better idea chis.

he left the insides on like. I got rid of mine as the following picture shows clearly.

you modeled it with gmax wilhelm?

Oh yeah, if you are gonna post a piccy turn off the grid.

the stock needs some work
try modeling from a side view.

Thanks for the help there, I'll see what I can do about the poly count and I'll try modeling from a side view too.

EDIT: And yeah, this is with gmax.
