.38 Special Revolver

sketchfab

This is a one-of-a-kind revolver design, brought to life by combining elements from several different .38 special revolvers. The overall shape and layout were inspired by the Rexio revolver, which served as the primary reference point. To ensure that this custom design would translate well in-game, it was created with Far Cry 3's polygon count and texture resolution limitations in mind: a maximum of 15k triangles and 2048x2048 pixels. The textures themselves are also 2048x2048, crafted using Photoshop to achieve the desired look. With a total triangle count of around 11k, this low poly model is optimized for smooth gameplay. Modeling was done entirely within 3ds max, with xNormal used to apply maps and add texture detail.
