I managed to turn around the peaked cap attempt from last Friday and the two variants I’ve come up with… Simply fuck. I mean seriously, look at that. I’m never going to look this good ever again, my avatar has officially peaked (ouch that pun…).

Spent some time on the inner workings of the Mauser HSc. I’m doing way more than I need to. It’s the same issue I’ve always had with putting a gun model together, and also the reason why I never completed any in 20+ years. I’m trying to get everything to fit together, and a lot of those parts I don’t have measurements for, so I have to eyeball between photos, diagrams, and World of Guns screenshots. The point isn’t to aim for perfect accuracy, but to have roughly everything that is potentially visible, occupying the space.

Then I’ll simplify it all to its bare minimum.

For example here, the magazine is too low, the feed lips should surround the part of the bolt face that is used to push the next round into the chamber.

The ejection port… I thought I could get away with a boolean, but it looks disgusting… I’ll fix it. The other side also need some grinding to fit the safety lever.
