That's a sweet model IMO.

But I'm sure MN, R93 and Mootjuh will beg to differ.

thanks man

I' not sure but some of the smoothing on the silencer seems a bit jacked up. Looks good.

Your topology is a bit inconsistent in areas, namely the back of the silencer (where the muzzle and silencer meet. Your smoothing also seems to be amiss, so if you changed the smoothing it it'd probably help you a lot as well.

However, it looks rather nice otherwise.

What? A compliment on someone's model from R93?

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE REAL R93? 
TELL ME!
TELL ME NOW!

Told you so.

I'm still here, ye damn Masochist

i am fixing all. i will just add all detail then i will start fixing and making high poly first then low poly

Make sure everything is a rectangle. No triangles or N-gons.

ok

Triangles and N-gons aren't bad if they're executed correctly. Technically, yes, they are bad if you ask a professor who teaches this stuff, but they come to exist in a lot of high poly models anyway. Sometimes it is impossible to avoid them without redoing the entire thing/element if you are on a tight schedule.

Typically, flat surfaces can get away with triangles etc. because they can be hidden by the topology around it. Just be sure to avoid messing up the edge loops around the borders, because that is indeed bad.

More info

almost finished high poly and what can i add ?

Oh I forgot N-gons and triangles are alright on flat surfaces.

N-gons are never ok tbh. Triangles are alright at times so long as they don't disrupt edge flow.

@Nika, try to add more detail to the slide, It currently looks like a solid piece rather than a moving one.

You should make actual renders instead of screenshots instead.

I would suggest making the slide a bit thicker so that its a bit more noticeable against the rest of the body. It currently sits completely flush with the edge of the body, making it really hard to tell whats the slide and whats the body. You could, in essence, keep it like that, but I would personally suggest making it so that its slightly easier to differentiate. the pieces.

what can i add more or start low poly version ?

This pistol should be in game aswell! Please make it happen:)

are you talking about my model or halo 3 odst pistol

The extruded circle in the magazine needs an extra control edge around it.
