nice, very nice, especially since finding that you can up the polies. IM curious are those open sights on top of the scope? Maybe have a mode where you can use those and than switch to scope?hint hint coder

Should the GLA have a Elcan or Acog?

Besides that, very nice job :)

The only reason why i have not done that is because of tri/poly counts

Not much point with those scopes as you still have a pretty good field of view (from memory) but only 1.5x magnification. The reason you would use the upper iron sights would be if you broke the lenses or could otherwise not see through the scope.

How about in room clearing? Would make sense because you want wouldn't want to have zoom in a room

1.5x zoom is hardly a lot of zoom. Targets look only 50% larger. At such close ranges I hardy think you would need to use the sights. Perhaps in a long corridor you would use the sights but in that case the sightly smaller F.O.V (due to the magnification and long housing) wouldn't be too much of a problem. I myself had little trouble sighting in with 25m targets using the F88 version which has the 1.5x carry handle sight we are talking about.

I'm pretty sure that the A2 version is not right. I mean the tactical mount is not right.

That is an airsoft model of an Steyr AUG A2 not a AuSteyr A2 (if I am not mistaken). The Steyr AUG is licence build in Australia (with some modifications) and is called the "AuSteyr".

A picture of the AuSteyr "A2": http://www.defence.gov.au/opslipper/ima ... 14_170.jpg

The thing is, that tonnie the modeller, is active army, so I'd be trusting his work more than the average man.

I dont know the tri count, but if it is getting really high I would recommend removing the detail on the magazine as it can be textured too (a lot of mags in video games are mostly just a simple shape + texture...)
If it were me (which its not - so chose for yourself) I would perhaps use those triangles elsewhere to soften the model up a bit. chamfering edges and such (where it is needed of course)

Otherwise, good job, looks very good imo.

One step at a time. It first needs to be UV wrapped. Both tasks will allocated to others since Tonnie is a busy man (he has all these other models to do after all).

Z-trooper: That detail will probably be removed, replaced by a flat surface and textured as tape.
