Whoa.......let me reply in order of appearance. SAMS3D: I thank you kindly for your thoughts on my model. I truly love to get feedback, especially of this sort. Helen: I am so glad to hear that you like the work that I have done with this. When I finish with my current project, of which you so graciously helped me to get back on track, I will send you a copy for you to use as you see fit. Thanks again. wgreenlee1: 1) 92845 vertices 165872 faces..............do the math. hehehe 2) No, texture maps are not needed. However, you are more then welcomed to make your own. (pssst..send me a copy) 3) As for the caliber. This is a hand-made, custom-built, precision instrument. Certain aspects of its design are to be kept secret, for security purposes. Only the maker and those who seek to become proficient with such a tool are privy to this information. 4)Ooops...my bad. In the early stages of conception, it was not planned to be a multi-piece set. The 'Full Clip' was an after thought, as were the other assorted pieces. The idea that the ammo rounds in the full clip were too short, totally got by me. As a matter of fact, since you have brought this to my attention, every time I look at the pictures now, all I see are the too-short rounds gleaming at me from the top of that darned clip. This is something that I will rectify in version two. ...............thanks for the look out. 5) Do you see that scope sitting there all by itself on the left side of the picture? That bad little boy can be used to equip the rifles without scopes............at least that's the idea I had in mind. 6) Should you look closely at the rifles without scopes AND silencers, you will see that there are indeed sights at the end of the barrel. And before you ask how to shoot the rifle that has NO scope but does have a silencer, the answer is this: Not all manifestations of this rifle are meant to be used for shooting. These are for scenes that have a Sniper/Assassin involved in them. Now we all know that Assassins do not just carry their guns around for all to see. So these guns are in various states of assembly/disassembly for use as the situation calls for. There will be at a later time, a version that can be TOTALLY broken down and carried in a fitted aluminum case. But not this version. ;o) 7) Mike hasn't complained about the angle relation between the stock and grip yet. If he has any reservations about the design, he's keeping them to himself. Therefore, I see nothing to be fixed here. The grip and stock are two individual pieces. I could easily change the angle if I thought there was a need. 8) No not at all. I enjoy responding to questions so very much. Especially when all I really wanted were comments. LOL smerc: Why thank youuuuuu. I used 3D Studio Max to model it. I'm happy with it, and I'm glad you like it as well. WTB: Yes, a military rifle would be timely. The state of the world today is resounding in military conflict. I have many thoughts on this matter. But I will reserve those thoughts for a more relevant forum. This rifle however, is a tool for an Assassin. Laurie: Ooops..my bad. I surely need to start running that spell checking software that resides on my HDD someplace. Irene: Yes I understand that not everyone is into the things that I am, and I respect that. And for you to stop and take the time to make such a nice comment, all I can say is 'Thank you for the sincerity I see in your words' B.T.W. I used Studio Max
