The Lee Enfield No.4 Mk I was the main rifle for the fighting Tommy during World War II. It was adopted as the standard British battle rifle in 1941 and replaced the SMLE which had seen the British Empire and Commonwealth through the First World War and other conflicts. Sporting many of the SMLE’s features, it was hailed for its accuracy and reliability, capable of laying down large amounts of fire and having a 10 round magazine it was a force to be reckoned with.
After creating this high poly mesh, I then went about creating and unwrapping the low poly mesh to be used in game. Falling well within the CryEngine3 poly budget, I then went about creating the textures, starting with the arduous task of baking down the normal and ambient occlusion maps (which gives subtle shadows).
From here it was on to creating the diffuse texture, the normal came out nicely and provided a nice base from which to work. Starting with the wooden stock and working my way across the texture sheet, the texture slowly began to take form.
Using a combination of different wood grain and metal overlays and wear/tear painting, the Enfield gradually began to take shape
A good 40 hours later, with the Enfield now finished, I am able to move on to producing our weapon attachments, of which there are several, so expect an in game update soon.
Until then, I hear Brrr is cooking up another explosive treat for us so in the meantime don’t forget to vote for us!

Very nice amount of detail on the Enfield
That's the sexiest Lee Enfield model I've ever seen in a video game.
This is absolutely incredible!
Holy ****, that is by far the most incredible rifle model I have ever witnessed.
I find the term "Kraut" derogatory especially since I'm German. Please for future reference try not to use it, cause there are still German gamers.
Btw nice enfield.
Apologies for any offense caused tk210. The term was used in the context of Europe 1939-1945 and was never intended to suggest otherwise.
Nice model!
Such detail, never before have I ever seen a Lee-Enfield with such beauty and care taken into making it.
