The BlasTech 4E, a fanfictional weapon for Sine Nomen's Nar Shaddaa, and probably my project too.

Constructive comments are welcome.

By the way, anyone interested in skinning it?

Coming on nicely, it looks like it could be a modern version of the blaster used by the sandtroopers in ANH. It certainly looks like it belongs in the Star Wars universe, anyway. I could probably skin it for you as well. Drop me a line when it's skinmapped, if you want.

No, I'm not going to skin it, I'm going to leave it multicolored! :rolleyes:

Anyways, it's like 1,300 polys, which is rediculously high for that. I have a lot of redundant verticies that are only creating extra faces. I have yet to remove these (lack of knowhow to do it efficiently).

I'm going to add a magazine and probably make parts rounder.

if you're going with that name, I suggest you go with "BlasTech 4E Rifle" because "BlasTech 4E" sounds like a relative of Han Solo's DL-44

Um, not sure how it does, but I'll think about it.

I totally redid the model. If anyone knows of a good polygon reduction plugin for 3ds max 5, or one for 4 that works in 5, please let me know. PolyChop for 4.2 does not work in 5.

I've been thinking about that, too. I shall see what I can do.

This is the best one I think. The barrel looks real and not flimsy like the other one.

Flat shade of the new scope and slightly optimized meshes.

Really? I thought it would be better with flat colors... :rolleyes:

Seriously folks, no need to post stupid stuff like that. Of course it's going to be skinned. That's just common sense.

Mhmm... Well it's starting to look really great. If you're gonna skin it (no doubt) make it similar to the E-11 (no doubt). Never mind. You probably know that already and I'm making myself sound stupid. LOL...
