Constructive Criticism
I like this rifle quite a bit (I enjoyed the video, really shows how you went about making the model), but I have a few suggestions.
  • Refine the lightmaps. In the image of the Sniper holding the Mosin, it looks like someone dipped the timeless, beautiful rifle in a vat of pig fat and then sparkled ground glass onto it. Wood just isn't that reflective, make it a bit duller. The jarring difference between the reflection when there's low amounts of light shown on it and high amounts of light is a bit unfortunate as well.
  • Give the rifle a new finish. This is personal opinion, but most people are familiar with having a walnut-colored finish to a Mosin (at least, where I'm from). The birch-colored wood messes with my perceptions of right and wrong ;~;
  • Make the rifle's color scheme darker, in general. Again, personal opinion, but I think that the wood and the iron bands used in the rifle is a bit too light-colored compared to the rest of the game. Ties into the previous point, too. Take a look at other guns with wood incorporated in 'em, like the Scout primaries, the original Sniper, Hitman's Heatmaker, et cetera.
That's about it for now, I'll pray to Gaben that the rifle makes it in sometime before Half-Life 3.
:Dosh:

sorry but i honestly cant see it being added anyway, it doesnt really seem different from anything else and valve is extremely stingy on weapons allready (last weapon update was something like 9 months ago?)
