Double-barreled Kriegsmarine Signalling Pistol Time-Lapse

A s mentioned in my previous post, I recorded the entire process of my latest 3D model of a double-barreled Kriegsmarine signalling pistol. I actually created two videos from the all footage. The first time-lapse is a short cut of the key stages. The second, is a full extended breakdown showing almost all 32+ hours in 32 minutes (for those curious on the complete modelling process). Hope you enjoy! Watch the short cut  here : Watch the extended cut   here : Thanks for reading :)

Double-barreled Kriegsmarine Signalling Pistol Renders

H ello! After being away from blogging for almost an entire year (big life changes) I am finally back! Posts might not be regular every month from now on, but  D_ROGUE is still very much alive. Things are just moving a little slower, as well as a bit sideways...like a crab. As the title for this post states, I have created a model of a  double-barreled Kriegsmarine signalling pistol for the game! A couple of years ago, I visited The Royal Navy Submarine Museum. Amongst the fascinating history and artifacts on display, I saw what looked like a firearm. Upon reading the information plaque, it turned out to be a unique and very rare double-barreled flare gun from a  German  submarine.  These big-bad-beefed-up flare guns were used on U-Boats in the Second World War not only for signalling and when in distress, but also for lighting purposes. My interest peaked,  I took  several photos for reference thinking it would be a fun hard-surface model to recreate. Some  further research later, I f
