Well this is what I have for the low poly version at 3850 Triangles...
Rails are around 500 Tris :/ I have done this.
I was thinking about a different scope. Maybe the EOTech RedDot? The current scope is 300 Tris. An EOTech ReDot will probably be around 700 for me to make...
If I put the details onto the clip then that is an extra 238 Tris.

I can appreciate that you want it different, but the handle just looks bad to me. It looks thin, sort of flimsy. Its not very attractive. I would try something else
Vert grip looks like it'd snap in two if you sneezed on it too hard, and why are you wanting to make it even less suited to the Halo universe by adding a modern sight to it? Is there some sort of misunderstanding happening here or what? Halo has a very specific design langauge and modern attachments points and accessories don't fit in with it at all. The rails are mismatched enough but an Eotech would just be the final straw. If you want to model weapons for the Halo series, stick with the established conventions. Don't go bringing in modern stuff. If you really do love modern stuff that much, then stop modelling Halo weapons. Don't mix the two unless it's just a 'because I can' model. They do not fit in with the rest of the stuff in the game.
It's like whacking a modern scope on a Springfield and then putting it in a WWII game, it does not work.
e/ Hunter, Masters is not lord god king of everything (or anything, for that matter). I'd suggest you avoid doing things just because he says so. Unless he gives a very good reason (like, say, something akin to complete inconsistency with the game's other designs), I don't see how his opinion is any more valid than anybody else's.
Peng, you're right, rails can go anywhere. Too bad they look absolutely horrible and out of place in most of those anywheres

Just stick with you handle you made that's in your sig. It looks a lot better.

The reason I listened to Masterz is because he had the same thought as me. It adds something to look at on the top. I would like to make it more interesting but I dont know what to put on it... I will change the front handle as well.
Agreed.
I think Rossmum needs to remember what the fi in sci-fi means, science FICTION not FACT.
Hunter that SMG looks to be comming along well to me though there do seem to be some un-needed detailing but i guess those parts could be usefull for if you ever go into 3d rendering, then you would already have the materials at your disposal.
*Never Mind* Will update post with another render in a min. Changed the handle a bit.
