3DHalo Reach: M247H Heavy Machine Gun

Not having done any 3d work in nearly two months, I decided to try something unrelated to my other projects. This is the heavy machine gun from Halo Reach, carried by Jorge. It's basically a squad automatic weapon, though due to it's size any normal human wouldn't be able to carry it around, as it's usually mounted on something. Being a Spartan though, Jorge seems to have no trouble hefting the things around.

You can check out some reference pics here:

Though that's not the version I'm making. I'm using the gun that came with the Collectors Edition Statue of Noble Team, which is a bit different. You can see this version here: http://www.toyark.com/news/attach/1/9/9/9/Halo-Reach-Box-Set-010_1281027533.jpg

And finally, here's what I have so far. Not much yet, but it's a start.

    It's not going to be exact and I'm taking a few liberties, but it should be recognizable as Jorge's weapon....at lest to those that have played the game.

    I've started working on this again. Here's what I have so far.
    Feedback would be very welcome.

    It looks great... maybe a bit too clean, but it's a good model...

    Thanks Doc. I've been trying to clean up the model to remove some errors, as well as bevel or round as many of the sharp corners as possible. Here's an update.

    I hope to finish it up tomorrow, the model at least. That's as far as I'm taking it for now.

    I'm loving this beast! Can't wait to see some weathered texturing on it. :D

    Thanks, and yeah that would look cool, if I knew how to do textures at all. My goal right now is just to finish the model.

    I've started working on another Halo model; this time an Escort based on the UNSC Frigate.
    The UNSC In Defiant Arms

    The idea is for a compact version of the frigate, with slightly larger engines and a second MAC gun in the lower hull, while losing most of the troop carrying capacity. I'll probably keep some ODST pod launcher just because Hell Jumpers are awesome. lol

    I believe the proper classification for the cannon on the nose of that ship is BFG.

    and anyone whose ever played doom will get the reference instantly..

    Great work on the gun. Very impressive. I want one of those to mount on the roof of my car...
    :D
