In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

AR-15

The final model will include all the internals and be strippable.

jsut so you know, i believe the ar-15 is the civilian version of the m1a1 assault rifle used in vietnam, meaning there is no fully automatic or burst capability. it also looks like your rifle has a collapsable stock, mind you those or only available on the m4's or the xm-whatever, not the m1a1(AR-15). im just drawing this out of memory, so if someone knows the subject better, please respond.

i think your right mr bojangles. Only colapsable stocks are on compact varients like the M4A1 version of the M-16.

Yes ar-15 is civilian, only single fire and safe.

just to correct you mr bojangles...the m1a1 was used in second world war.. user added image
it is also known as m1 carbine...i have here a link to a page where all various models of the m4 or m16 are listed.

https://www.thesupplybunker.net/weapo...ult_rifles.htm

btw. ckyuk: the weapon you made there isn't an ar-15
go on the page i posted and you see how an ar-15 looks like.
this is just to help you and not to offend you...

well not to say im right or anything, and i im not trying to ruin your thread,

However im sure when i participated in Operation Phenonix, at Fort Dix in New Jersey, as part of the EOD team they said we could use The AR-15 . (it was 5 years ago thou - my memory does play tricks).

https://www.calssportingarmory.com/ColtAR6721.htm

Ar-15 is the civilian version of teh M16, th eM1 carbine, as stated was used in WW2.., a better version of the M1 Grande, in my opinion...

The AR-15, can be made to fire full auto.. Just not as bought, thetre are kits for it though, that you can use for that...granted you ahve to have a federal automatic firearms permit....

or if your just this good.. you coudl ride the recoil off it.. what lttle there is on a well constructed one..
, and.. while that model posted, looks to have potential....cant wait to see another update fori t..
its not, and ar-15.. i myust comply with that statement...

Sorry. The reference picture i was using was of an airsoft rifle and someone had titled it as an AR-15, looks like i might be modelling a Colt Commando.

It's rendered with the standard maya renderer. No, the grey isn't a plane if click "View > Select Camera" then press Ctrl + A to open the camera settings and scroll down to enviroment you can alter the backgroud colour. The lighting is standard 3 point lighting, there is a tutorial here by mtmckinley that shows how to set that up. Raytracing on the main light. Anti-aliasing set to production.
