Hey, so the sentry gun project has finally been finished and i feel like i've learnt a lot from the whole experience. overall i'm happy with my final outcome, and it so cool to see it in engine firing at the player. I had issues with the metalness and the roughness but overall i think its all worked out. Looking at the finished product I feel there is something missing from this but I'm not sure what that is. Perhaps it would have looked better if i went for a more stylised twist on the same model and have the wood panels thicker and have the whole thing look more like painted textures.

Personally i'm really happy with how the dog turned out, this was one of the section where i did paint the textures and i think it came out better than the photo textured areas. Maybe my problem is that i should have stuck to just one type of texturing. I will look out for this in the future. the unwrap and model for the dog where bothering me so i went back and redid them, which is why i think i like them more, should have done this with the rest of the model. Iterations are the way to work!

anyway that was just might thoughts about the turret and i definitely i have improve because of this project. Next week we start our character project.
