Mostly inaccurate, because you still don't know how to read form. look at the way that light acts on the surfaces. there's too much wrong with it. The heatshield is too flat. There's poor surfaces all over the place. You've yet to learn how to make a good mesh and that's pretty obvious.Originally Posted by WMHunterTLS
Funny to hear someone of your skill level bashing Bungie's model
O, I'm sorry teh lag. When I posted the picture didn't show up. My bad and sorry.
I can agree with that, I think its mostly that hes not being accurate or true to what he sees... I can see quite a few inaccuracies, but they really aren't show stoppers to me, if the gun was actually further along there would be more to comment on, but right now, the only thing to constructively critique is small inaccuracies, and some messy faces.
Its really too early in the game though to make him fix these. Modeling clean sort of comes with time, and its a skill you pick up the more you model, and you begin to see whats right and whats wrong. He just doesn't have the eye for that yet imo. Its more of an experience thing I personally think.
Its why all of us can look back at things we modeled close to a year ago and find countless imperfections in the mesh, even though at the time you might have thought the model was pretty good, and you maybe felt proud of it.
I personally think its not a bad model, I also don't think its finished enough to be critiqued.
Keep working on it hunter, next post try to have about 2 times as much done that you have now. Its currently maybe 25% finished, add on another 25% and maybe there will be more we can help you with other then small imperfections.
I kind of think thats the problem though, its an experience issue, anything we point out to you at this stage is just because your not very experienced, and I don't think that pointing out most of the minor errors will actually help your modeling skills. Its all about having the eye for detail, and being able to see your own imperfections, the more you model the more and more of these minor mistakes you will catch and the better your mesh's will become. Of course there are bigger things that can be helped like poor technique that can lead to bad habits with modeling.
The biggest thing I would tell you to fix at this stage is what lag pointed out in his picture. (mainly the stuff on the left) the grip definitely looks uncomfortable to hold, but if thats the way Bungies is then I'd say keep it that way for now.

I find this rather funny especially coming from you. Perhaps I should have been more specific in my post concerning the hypocrisy consider the fact that he was trying to make Tweek seem ignorant when it was inherent sarcasm and the only thing Hunter has been posting is/was total stupidity and drama in a good number of his post. I don't give a damn about rep but I would appreciate it if and when you tried to insult me or prove me wrong you read everything everyone has said and take it all into consideration. I think I've made it clear by now that I can't stand any form of stupidity. Regardless of how someone has improved on a model, if he posts stupid comments; takes things out of proportion, I'll show no amount of respect what-so-ever.

Fuck It..... Good bye.
Good job guys, just downed the quantity of the community by 1.
('Good Job' = sarcasm for those who are inept)
Until next time...
Thinks about a certain suicide thread written by someone
offtopic: I know about being flamed and I gave up on retaliation... just took too much of my time and I was thinking about that and not my work...PM for BS keep the threads clean
disclosure: I'm too new to really help you out any
ontopic: don't drop the work or your thread. I like the model so far and yes I can see the imperfections but we learn by doing and re-doing and starting fresh and posting here for help/advice/exposure/community... i subscribed to this thread in the hopes he will come back
Keep it up and bring us more pics... I for one am interested

Quitting is no way to deal with anything.
Take what Snaf says in the right light and you can become very good. He is a very talented artist, and sure you may be on his bad side, but in a way that is good as he will give you harsher comments.
You need to learn to take comments the right way and grow from what you are told. Nobody can hit this first try and just be perfect.
see you in 3 days.
