i myself am currently working on multiple items.

yesterday i started on a sledgehammer-style giant hammer,
which is based on the doom-hammer from world of warcraft

im making it as a gift fo my girlfriend, to use as a prop for hir draenei look in second life

.

im also working on a skimpy super-high/low-cut swimsuit for a particular avatar body-mesh

.

and lastly im also working on a gasmask for my favourite dragon-head mesh

.

.

and recently i made a few items for several avatars from orange nova

a bridle for multiple different dragon-heads for the snokra snake avatar

a body-harness set for both the snokra snake avatar and the snaggletooth kobold avatar
(pixelation-censorship added because nudity)

that looks cool. especially like the medieval/egyptian loooking area with the water
and the medieval hallway with the bricks and the broken wall looks nice too

.

did you make all the hud weapon-models shown in those pictures too, or only the maps?
like the machine-gun and the pistol, did you make those as well?

hehe oh, the darker textures of the floor of the lowest part of the area made it look like there was water there. think it could look great if you made that area with the dark stone floor have water in it

.

also bleh fuck people like that, who just nag about everything while they have no clue
just how much work it is to make stuff because they never created anything in their life.
its easy to tear anything anyone makes apart when you have no clue just how much work goes into creation.

especially if the criticism isnt remotely constructive in the slightest and its just bitching,
you should just ignore the comments and you shouldntn't let such people stop you from creating.

if its honest constructive criticism though, dont take it negatively but as exactly what is, constructive criticism to help you improve your works.

but if its just tearing your stuff apart without giving any kinda helpfull criticism or tips on how you could improve your creations in any way, just ignore it and dont let it keep you from making stuff.

[quote quote=4936]Your sledgehammer reminded me of my old sledgehammer project!

hehe oh yeah that thing. i remember you shared the model with me years ago.
i never actually did anything with it, lol

as someone who owns a virtual store myself, i've had to deal with people like that often and from time to time get people leaving shit reviews on my items despite the quality of my models

they find one tiny thing they can bitch about and just bash my hard work into the ground over it,
and got no clue just how hard i worked on those models because they never made anything themselves

i've also had people who were obviously just jealous of my skills attempt to bash me into the ground,
or even sometimes people pulling shit like trying to accuse me of theft to try and ruin me just out of jealousy.

those kinda people are not worth getting annoyed over and you shouldnt let people who just rip your work apart for no reason or bash on your work stop you from making more stuff.

dont let the haters and assholes stop you from doing what you love ;)
the internet is full of assholes who will try and rip apart anything and anyone...
when you find yourself having to deal with one, just ingore them & dont let their shit get to you

.

.

that kinda stuff sems interesting dumptruck! such a mod wouldve definitely come in handy years ago when i was attempting to make an arena-styled map with monsters "spawning in" in waves, which i faked through use of triggers with counters to make new monsters teleport in once all the enemies that previously were teleported in were killed

hahaha yeah exactly like that is what my map was too...
hidden rooms with loads of monsters-teleports and triggers EVERYWHERE XD

every single monster had a target leading to count-triggers,
and there were loads of time-delayed triggers all over
to make it seem like monsters were coming in in waves

.

also made some more progress on the mallet im making for my girlfriend

UV-mapped several parts and made texture for the head using a great rock-texture i had as base,
which i think worked out really great and looks totally bad-ass af

[quote quote=4969]I based it on an egg crate for a 1/2 dozen eggs ( cause that’s the best way).

'Quake.. its like a crate of eggs. sometimes you gotta break some iron shells to make a giblette'

.

also interesting stuff admer. what game is that "Zvezde" mod for?
afraid i dont recognise what game it could possible be in your screenshots.

.

i also made some more progress on that mallet im working on.

UV-mapped all pieces of the mallet and textured the knot on the side of the head.
will add some AO around the knot on the head to make it stand out more at a later point.

right now im working on getting the entire model split into logic pieces which will share UVs.
i've placed all the rivets on a single UV. next is putting all of the silver parts on a single UV
and placing all of the gold parts on another UV, and the straps around the grip will have their own UV.

hehe wanna know a fun-fact about valve's goldsrc engine?
valve's goldsrc is actually an modifed&updated version of the quake1 engine! ;)

if you look through the goldsrc code, you can even find the hud's face-icons from Quake still in there :D

and aaah ok, that explains. never played half-life1 much myself,
tried it a few times but didnt find it as fun and engaging as half-life2

.

also... bamf, the hammer/mallet i was working on is finished

of course in-game it will have gloss-maps & normals to make the gold & silver parts actually be shiny.

yeah goldsrc is a modified version of quakeworld,
as you can see in the family-tree below

.

also, le voila, the finalized mallet in-game with gloss-maps and normals

btw regarding CoD running on modified IDtech, you're totally correct in that guess.
CoD apparently runs on a modified RTCW engine

[quote quote=5163] I’ve been looking for a Blender model of a weapon that will allow 3 modes of fire 1) a Rocket Launcher, underneath which is 2) a small grenade launcher, and finally 3) a gas driven flame-thrower

hmmm... i dont have the last one, but i did once make an M79 grenade-launcher

and maybe the mirv-launcher that i made for the drake-mod could be usefull to you

both of those you'd be free to use if you want, just as long as you give me credit for both models

.

.

also, a few days ago i re-vamped the gems i made long ago for the drake-mod
with brand-new textures and created normals & specular maps to make them look much better,
as well as adding 2 additional gems which i previously made for personal projects
