Yep, I'd like to take the opertunity to say this is my 1st ever model! And I didnt use any tutorials, but I did look at help for the meterials. Unfortunatly I'm gonna have to lern to animate it so i can release the .ms3d for anyone to animate (if they can do it faster).
I'd like the nozzles to move in and out if possible when firing.
Oh I think I'm gonna have some trouble attaching a hand to the gun, just my newbish skills!
btw, i did a lil re-skin on the blood angles skin. before all the hype, i made it not so crimson and re-skined some pieces. but you lot would know the difference!
I'm not sure if this is the place to post this, but I've made the Q3 SpaceMarine converted by Hyper-Geek and Argonath so that it changes between the black flamey skin and the red skin depending on whether its the black skin or the white skin. Is anyone interested? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

I done a search on google, but i just got a load of junk. There probably are good websites out there, but I just dont know any.
EDIT
Actually, most of the codex have could artwork in them and I think there are a few limited edition art books floating around. And the boxes tend to have decent pictures on them andtry the black library (sorry no link).
Ok, the models changes a bit now (no pic yet), iv managed to get the clip sort of curved just like the real life model. The handle is a little more curved.
Oh anyone wanna gimmy the maximum poligons I should use (keeping in mind about half of them get knocked off anyway when I delete the bits you cant see).
Ok the model looks like this now(see below) I'm still not happy with it tho, maily because its got no skeliton or trigger yet and maby it could use a bit more detail. So anyone want to skin it?
Are you sure that's what it looks like? And give us a polycount. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I can't make heads or tails out of this thing. Where do you hold it? How do you fire it? I can see the barrels. They're probably eating up a lot of polys to be that round. A model with this much detail shouldn't be more than 150 polys.
Well, when I'm happy with it I', gonna cut away the part you cant see which should kill a lot of polygons (right?)
The clip is the huge gray thing at the back, (yes that is the size on the model) and the handle is a tiny thing (due to the fact that it is held by a terminator which is a stronger/more powerfull version of power armour making it easy to hold a heavy gun in 1 hand.
Looking at it, it is very difficult to make accuratly.
EDIT
I might be able to cut the nozzles down to 1 and cheat a little.
And the refrence is my box of terminators and my Terminator. Sorry no pics for a while.

That sir, is a storm bolter. It's just 2 bolt guns strapped together pretty much. Theres no grip or trigger on it as he said, must be no need for it in V_mdl view. i'll try and dig up a ref, gimme a few mins.

Uhhh, the new(ish) marine captin model seems to be handling his storm bolter fine, he's just in power armour (or artificer armour if ya wanna spen another 50 pts <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )
So, I gather you're not working off any reference, but from memory. I think you can do a better job, bud. Give it another go, first find a good ref picture. I'm sure people are more than willing to offer their pictures. Don't worry about skeleton, you don't need to make that.

ok, I saigned up mainly to ask this question, but wouldn't a heavy bolter be a better replacement for the hmg, or an assault cannon? but the strombolter is cool, yay gun! Now, when are there gunna be Tyranid skins for the aliens? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Might try a few more later...
( it's actually a bit darker, my gamma adjust's a bit off..)
muhahaha
The gamma on this one is more accurate, thats what the other one is more like..
(i hope that made sense <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> )
( I know about the official Games Workshop site btw, I just wondered if there were any other good ones..)
There probably are good websites out there, but I just dont know any.

Oh 2 anyone willing to skin it?

I'm still not happy with it tho, maily because its got no skeliton or trigger yet and maby it could use a bit more detail.
So anyone want to skin it?
I think its 528 Polygons, what should be the min max anyway?
Oh like I said I'm still not happy with it.

But, If you don't want my advice, I'll take it elsewhere.
I'm using the standard storm bolter model.
I managed to cut it down to 360 Polygons.
