Some Weapon blend files I'd like to submit to you guys.

I found 2 xakhs on Google. Are you the one who makes ultra-high-poly swords, or the one who made the youtube videos "Guy with a wristblade" and "Strix"?

Another tip: Models don't have to be one continuous object. It's okay to make a new cylinder object for the barrels rather than just extruding them from the existing object.

This one that I made (for the Source-engine), for instance, contains around 10 independent objects, which also makes it highly modular. If I wanted, say, to have a scope on it, or swap the handle out for a more... ergonomic grip, I could just move or replace an object, rather than trying to rebuild the model entirely:

Unfortunately, I am both of those people. Also, the GearGrinder only has 332 faces, hardly ultra high poly. The other ones are from my youtube account, and are horrible.
And, I use tons of cylinders and other parts in my models, I just keep them connected. I do swap out parts quite often that way.

If you email me the models at mikeeusa@yahoo.com I'll put them on my server and post links.

This will give me a little more protection from everyone attempting to delete every file on my server: if they take me down, they take down your files too.. they won't want to do that.

Yah... I figured out you were both of the xakhs about 3:00 today when I browsed your deviantart. You rendered some of those objects really well even if they were low poly (I had only looked at the image icons before). The variant shadowing and stuff was nice. Also, seeing this thread reminded me that I need to keep doing 3D, so thanks!

No problem. Glad I could be some help.
