JJ's sketches

Giving my ability not to finish anything I start I decided to make this thread so that if I have anything I like to show I could do in here..

First up a carbody for a two seater hot rod of which I got the idea after watching Sathe's 3rd video tutorial on inorganic modelling (http://forums.3dtotal.com/showthread.php?t=62437)

And a hand-held 30mm (recoilless) cannon I started for a low poly contest here

Another one fro the book.

I just got the idea for a double barrelled simultaneous firing automatic shotgun and this how it turned out.

I couldn't leave the shotgun alone so I modelled a carrying handle with iron sights and attached the magazine trusses to the gun.

I also wanted ho difficult it was to model a screw with knurled (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Knurled) sides.
I once read a tutorial about it and forgot most of it, including the site where I found it. So I basically reinvented the wheel for which I used Sathe mini-gun barrel shroud technique (third video iirc) as a basis.
The poly count is probably massive but I didn't bother to check so I'm living in blissful ignorance. :p

And another one.
Which is basically an alternative history American civil war tank.
The dummy modern day height (6 foot/1.80meters).
