K-1353435340 Model Shotgun

This shotgun is based off a series of weapon concept arts that I found online and so far have created three of the six in the set. It may probably be a few weeks before I can post new content but I am now in an intense art mood and I plan to rework the other two weapons I had already made as I learned a bit more from this piece.

Again the aim for this was mainly improving my specular map creation skills and learning to use the Marmoset renderer and using Crazy Bump in my work flow. Secondary objectives were continued refining of my diffuse map creation abilities and now am at a 50/50 mindset of photo-sourcing and hand painting. Maybe in the next few projects I'll aim for a 100% hand painted prop but sticking to a more realistic look and venture into stylized territory, that though is for another day.
