Hey everyone! I've recently been trying to improve my 3d modeling skills, I've made a few things recently.
Here's my favorite one so far. It's a Whelen Slimlighter.
I'd appreciate some constructive criticism on it!

The model is great, the only issue I can give you some advice on is the LED modules. Instead of doing cylinders to represent the dishes, you should rather model out a flat surface and cut the indiviual reflector cups into it. In reality it looks like this:

We have provided more information on this in our privacy policy.The flat portion of the module should be the same height as the plastic portion beneath the lens on the inner side. To cut the dishes, you can use a cylinder to size and place over each position to be cut(must intersect the flat surface), then use 3ds Max's boolean tools to cut the shapes into it. From there you can select the edges and extrude inwards to form the dishes.

I didn't notice that it was like that. I'll be sure to do it that way!

Hey everybody,
I finally got around to updating the Slimlighter. It has full LODs and I'm finalizing the materials. I'll try and get some pictures of it in-game by the weekend.Here it is in Zmod, I know it isn't much now but I'd just like to show what I have so far

Absolutely lovely work.
