As promised, I made a gun in the month of March. Though still cramming in school and undergoing the BIG sad, I'm doing better than some of my classmates atleast.

This gun took me a total of 13 hours to make from scratch with many different distractions/commercial breaks.

The gun with the scope has a total amount of 809 nodes, not the most optimized I can do, but the Node count was mostly taken by the insane amount of details on the scope. I also learned a new gradienting technique as well as an easier way to make circles without gradients. I tried to make the gradients as subtle as possible but not to subtle to make it look realistick ™.

Smart stretch was used again of course for the spring of the bolt and a few features were added/improved as well like the charging handle (improved charging handle compared to my ak47 figure)

When pulling the charging handle back, I recommend using the segment length editor tool when animating to avoid "breaking" the alignment and overall look of the gun.
