I'm not doing the SMA Microwave Gun anymore, it's too much of a bitch. I'm doing this fella here [url]http://www.imfdb.org/images/c/c3/D93.jpg[/url]

[QUOTE=OpethRockr55;17442058]Over 50,000. I know Mariokart64n got at least that high.[/QUOTE] I think you can go over the limit.

Is that the weapon he fires at the building that makes the huge blue-ish explosion? That would make an awesome SWEP.

Looking good dude.

[QUOTE=Dav0r;17446811][img_thumb]http://i33.tinypic.com/2rzwfhu.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] Looks like something outta halo...really nice though.

[QUOTE=Striker89;17447296]Looks like something outta halo...really nice though.[/QUOTE] In fact it looks a lot like the Brute Shot, if held backwards and upside down... [img]http://images.wikia.com/halo/images/thumb/d/db/Brute_Halo_3_Shots.jpg/300px-Brute_Halo_3_Shots.jpg[/img] Or sorry, no, it actually looks a lot more like the Covenant Sniper: [img]http://highprophetofregret.net/Weapons/BaseSniperCovenant.jpg[/img]

I'll tell you what it looks like, it looks like lack of references and a bitchwhore to model.. ugh losing patience. Gimme something else to make.

Oh don't give up it's looking fantastic! Just do what you can with the references available and do what you think feels right with the rest :)

[QUOTE=Dav0r;17448191]I'll tell you what it looks like, it looks like lack of references and a bitchwhore to model.. ugh losing patience. Gimme something else to make.[/QUOTE] Baby prawn :D ?

Just shrink the original prawn model.

[QUOTE=Dav0r;17448271]Just shrink the original prawn model.[/QUOTE] Still won't look the same as in the film.

[QUOTE=Carne;17448478]Still won't look the same as in the film.[/QUOTE] isnt the difference pretty much the size of the eyes in relation to the side of the head?

[QUOTE=Dav0r;17448191]I'll tell you what it looks like, it looks like lack of references and a bitchwhore to model.. ugh losing patience. Gimme something else to make.[/QUOTE] The bomb thing Christopher puts together in the lab. Small, simple, and it'd make a neat grenade SWEP.

Again, don't just give up. If you can't tell how every aspect of the weapon is supposed to look from the few references, fill in the gaps yourself.

This project looks bloody awesome, good luck with it!

[QUOTE=Dav0r;17448191]I'll tell you what it looks like, it looks like lack of references and a bitchwhore to model.. ugh losing patience. Gimme something else to make.[/QUOTE] Maybe the armorer or Neill would have some reference pics. They should have their emails somewhere on the web.

[QUOTE=mahalis;17448674]The bomb thing Christopher puts together in the lab. Small, simple, and it'd make a neat grenade SWEP.[/QUOTE] Actually, I agree with this idea.

[QUOTE=mahalis;17448674]The bomb thing Christopher puts together in the lab. Small, simple, and it'd make a neat grenade SWEP.[/QUOTE] This must be done. :3

So...yeah, thought these may be useful to you gunrunners: I stumbled upon this prawn weapon...it's almost like a heavy machine gun from what the scene shows. I only found a few key shots if anyone wants to take a whack at it. [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/prawnheavymachine.jpg?t=1253650655[/img] [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/weapons.jpg?t=1253650655[/img] <-- this one, far right. Also, this flamethrower gun thingy: [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/amrb7.jpg?t=1253650654[/img] Apologies for the blurryness [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/whatsthis6.jpg?t=1253650649[/img][img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/whatsthis5.jpg?t=1253650650[/img] [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/whatsthis4.jpg?t=1253650650[/img][img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/whatsthis3.jpg?t=1253650651[/img] [img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/whatsthis2.jpg?t=1253650652[/img][img]http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/TrueReplica/weapons2.jpg?t=1253650656[/img] And for some strange reason it also looks like the grenade launcher dealie here. Could be a combo?

Wait, isn't someone already doing the repeater? Unless you're just doing this for practice.

[QUOTE=markfu;17454191]Wait, isn't someone already doing the repeater? Unless you're just doing this for practice.[/QUOTE] We have multiple arc guns...so why not?

[QUOTE=Denmon;17452653]You kiddin? Alyx has about 8k and Barney has about 6k. I think 14k is quite alot for a source model...[/QUOTE] In ep2 they have like 20k. And the combine i'veheard have about 40k.
