back when i was learning to 3D model in autodesk maya like 9 years ago, the first personal project i did to keep me motivated was making ahab's crosshairs (ie eridan's harpoon gun) and when i finished it i was happy enough with it to post a render to deviantart

well i found the file again recently and saw how shoddy my construction was, so i went to go look for some reference pics to fix some of it only to find that my render from 2014 is apparently now one of the top google image results

#homestuck #my greatest contribution to the fandom ig lmao #i may be a lil close to revealing my actual name by posting this but oh well this will simply be unrebloggable #the deviantart acct was made in a time when i still used my real name on here so whatever #but srsly the model had so many edges and vertices that just did not line up at all. you just cant tell bc of how i lighted it #the only thing that sucks about remaking it now is that the scope texture used the car paint from mental ray #which is now no longer a render option in maya #so i have to find a new shiny material for it that looks nicely metallic #or slap some bump map texture on a phong or smthng #rose speaks
