A generic Revolver i designed. I wanted to do a project with no refs just go off my imagination and this is what i came up with.

After my first renders were really bland my girlfriend recommended a brushed silver/bronze look to it which ended up giving it a steampunk look i like.

Although i have a laser sight on the bottom rail i removed it for render as it looked bland in comparison to the rest of the gun.

I have no plans to add anything else to this as i was testing some techniques that worked well.

I know you said you were not planning on doing any more but I think a occlusion render on it would bring out the detail better...........dave

Sadly im very bad at render settings and have only very recently used anything other than default maya textures and default settings.

Do you have a link for a tut on occlusion renders?

thanks.
