Isn't that right /u/riot_fragloser /u/riot_preeti?

Yeah this looks cool!

If you're interested in working on weapons for games I highly recommend taking a look at some full high poly > low poly > substance painter > marmoset/ue4 tutorials. Back when I taught a Props + Weapons course after work, I recommended Simon's tutorials to my students if they wanted to continue learning. Looks like you're using Blender (I do too!) so maybe the first one would be a good fit. Arrimus3d also has a great collection of free high quality tutorials you could take a look at as well!

Thank you so much! My dream job currently is to be a 3D artist for a game company like Riot, Blizzard, ect. Figuring out that Blender was so packed with potential really inspired me to go for this, I will for sure check out these tutorials and follow them closely, again I can't thank you enough, any feedback from devs like you really means a lot :)

That's awesome! All of us started wanting to work on games in some way. Fragloser got there a lot faster than I did career-wise, but we all ended up here eventually. It sounds lame but honestly pursue what you're passionate about and work extra hard, and in some luck! Eventually it can work out!
