A-104 Cold Fusion Assault Rifle
Great gun I just saw on Blendswap!
The A-104 cold fusion Assault rifle is the workhorse of the USMC of 2122. Using cheap deuterium gas to power it’s fusion reactor it generates a 1.2 foot stream of plasma, every 0.16 seconds.
Included are a set of diffuse, specular, and normal maps all 1024×1024. All textures were hand made in blender and Photoshop. The model is only 5649 Polys, and great for use in a game!
For the textures I started by baking the AO twice. Once with Max distance set high (20+ blender units), and once with it set low. (<1 blender unit) then started adding detail in Photoshop. Then to add the scuffed edges I went into blender and texture painted them on the edges, saved out the painted-over image, and applied that to the texture as a different layer.

very cool looking!
Nice exposed wiring! Looks like games have the option to take those out (replace with flat images) to save another 1.5 poly.
Hey pfunked what do you mean with exposed wiring?
Nice model, but the poly count is 11k not 5k. The model isn't triangulated.
Edit: Never mind, I misunderstood you pfunked. If you take out the wiring and bake it on a plane, you can save almost 5000 polygons.
@Skorpio Sorry If I didn't count it right. I just read the count, up in the right hand corner of blender.
No problem. You just have to know that games convert all faces to triangles.
just entered this and other art into my game, added some special fx and walla the R Pulse 104-Rifle now a functioning weapon for my fantasy midevil meets sci-fi fantasy. :D
