o_O No constructive critisism?
I hesitate in giving criticism, because I haven't done any pep work, or any armor or prop work as of yet. But since criticism was requested, I will oblige. The shape and size of the SR are nearly spot on. Kudos. Some of the shapes could be sharpened, notably where the barrel meets the receiver. Where the bipod legs connect with the rifle could use some cleaning up. Maybe adapt actual rifle bipod legs? I love the butt stock. The rubber looks good. Sharpen up the edges a bit and you've got an amazing prop. Now, if only it worked. :D

Well, like I said, I didnt get alot of time to work on the front end of the SR because of bad weather. I know (especially aroudn the legs) how horendous it looks lol. That will be all fixed up as time goes on.

I looked at getting real bipods but non I could find looked like the in-game legs... plus they cost liek a mad amount of bread that i dont have.

And thanks for the kind words about my "butt"...my SR "butt" :cautious: . lol I worked very hard on the rubber and making the nessessary additions and demolishing what didnt need to be there. And, personally, I think adding the screws makes it looks that much more badass :cool:


@Danny: ......damn trekkie :cautious:
 
It looks, Err, Soft?

Might want to get it looking more angular and sharp.

Good Work thus far ;).

-Doom
 
Soft?.... I'm pretty sure it's rock solid, in fact lol. I'm not sure what you mean by that Doom, but I'll do my best to fix it...

And I did round every edge except the long skinny piece in the middle of the body on both sides... I thought that was how it was suposed to be, but I'm most liikey wrong. It only takes 5 minutes to make everythign angular again. If thats what you were referring to..

Thanks for the help guys!
 
very nice BRI i dont get on for a day or two and look what i miss. I think you could make it look sharper by painting it darker in the corners..like mabye spray painting it black on the edges and wiping it off, in the manner that adam has used to had the low lights to his armor...dunno i made sense but very nice...that and the flash on your camera prob didnt help
 
It's only primer..... I was just sick of seeing bright multi-color and dull Bondo color..... That is SO NOT the final paint job... that's still a ways away.

And the grip is dead center, its just the camera angle ;)

That is the best SR I have ever seen! Nice, do the final paint in pink camo, I'm a guy but still think it would be pretty funny to have a pink SR lol!! The plain Black and Grey would be boring and army camo could be thought of by someone else. I might have blue storm or red tiger camo on my weapons when I get around to them. I am still deciding what colour to have my armour...
Photobucket is down for me so anyway then; its a red primary, silver secondary and white tertiary scheme with mark V helmet, EVA shoulders and CQB chest (removeable knife hopefully!)
Put these in here or make your here

Just to clarify what has not ben worked on, and what is going to be done over the next 2/3 weekends:

1) The Legs- I have NOT sanded them, nor have I shaped them. I only have Rondo covering 3/4 of them. The little "feet" will be rubberized once I get everything I had just said done.

2) The PVC thingy- The only thing I think needs to be completed here is to cone the front of the PVC to the addition/bulgy thingy. I might add in additional detail to the bulgy thingy but I have not looked at any close up reference shots to confirm nor deny that.

3) EVERYTHING ELSE - Everything that is circled needs to be sanded, rondoed, sanded, rondoed, sanded, detailed, sanded, etc. As it stands now, it looks terrible. I will strive for the best job I can make of it and hopefully I wont dissapoint myself anymore.

And just so we are all on the same page *Death Stares at Danny* that is NOT the "paint job" that is only Auto Primer and I used it to highlight what still needs to be worked on and because I wanted to see my SR in one solid color for once. When I took the pictures the primer wasnt even completely dry, but I had to get the rifle inside my house because it had started to rain outside.

Hokay, back to work for me! :D
 
The grip looks pretty damn good! hurry up and finish this kelly!!! It's going to look brilliant when its detailed and painted (y)

I need HELP!

Since it's currently raining outside :cautious: I thought I would star playing around with the templates and came across a delema...

med_gallery_2379_7_14578-1.jpg

This picture, the circled part looks to be 3D, it stand out against its surrounding parts...

SniperRifleFixed.jpg

This image looks like there is no change whatsoever...

2003733407_48fc7c73f7_b.jpg

And this one looks like it goes both ways! (looking around at the sourroundings)

My question is, which is it? Which part is correct? Which one will make my SR Cannon in the end?

Looking at the pics it looks like the part you outlined is simply separated from the other parts of the stock by a wide seam. It looks like they are all correct. The lighting in the first pic is kinda funky and caused the part to look as if it was raised.

That's what I was thinking, I think that the 3d models are correct. And the first pic is correct also correct, but the lighting is weird on the first pic.
