Looks good Dave. I think I can see a little faceting in the heat sync pieces.

No good scale refs Bullet, most angle shots and they are all differantly configured. Im doing the M151 protector simular to the crows 2. I think you could put these guns out of action with a pot of paint (but it does look good to model)...........LOL.......dave

I'm loving all the detail that you're adding. I've had to abandon lots of my projects cuz I get more ambitious than my computer can handle. I'm hoping you're computer won't have troubles with poly count cuz I'm really looking foward to seeing the outcome. It's really looking good so far.


Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!

Looking good Dave. Getting a little faceting on the glare shields. The one over the big round lens.
