since this thread is about modeling, maybe someone can send Katarn a tutorial on rendering (if he doesn't make one himself) even if it is a video and he can post it at the bottom of the original post saying who made it.

Nice stuff.

What techniques do you use to add minor details? Do you add details after creating the base of the weapon, or do you add them in while creating it with the use of insert vertex tools and such? If after, how do you do it?

This is one of the few things I'm finding difficult. I know of various ways to add details, but I'm not sure which one is the best.

Thanks for the guide. I will also be checking out that plane modeling tutorial, it looks great.

So you used PhotoShop too make that?

Please tell me some Programs I need to get started.

Sonictag · Post by **Sonictag** » Sun Feb 27, 2005 6:17 am

To make the gun? he used 3ds max 6 or 7 probably. Photoshop is for 2d graphics, for the skin you might use photoshop.

Katarn · Post by **Katarn** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 11:09 am

max 7. Photoshop/psp are good for making skins, texporter for exporting uv maps.
