More hard surface goodness!

I apologize for not posting last week. I have been busy working on my next project through. Before I show you that I made a few screenshots today of my steam punk rifle with some nicer lighting:






I'm still not 100% happy on how these turned out but I feel like I am getting some nicer results. Doing set dressing for renders isn't really my strong point at the moment.

As for my next project I am doing another gun. I don't know why I did this to be honest but I watched a YouTube video on some guy doing an awesome looking rifle and I just had to make my own. It was supposed to be just some practice one day but I can't stop working on it; too much fun.

It's called a TrackingPoint XS1 Precision-guided 338 LM. This things looks amazing and I thought it might be fun to make my own. Right now as you can probably see I'm not done with the high poly just yet but I'm getting there. I was hoping to get this section done before a family vacation but alas I don't think it will happen. I will continue this project in a couple weeks...

Steampunk Rifle Textures

So I've finally have some halfway decent textures applied to my rifle that I posted last week. Not much to say about it really at this point. This isn't quite finished yet; I've only just thrown some simple materials on it today. I haven't added any grunge or dirt and the emissive green texture isn't sitting well with me. I want to spend a few more days getting the materials and textures right before I call this finished. I'll post final renders next week.
