M24 Stielhandgranate

[BuLL]

Make more use of the little blighters.
Make a cylinder in max with a good scattering of height segments.Ponce about with it for
half an hour or so,slap a quick and dirty skin on it & you have yourself an asset."Or not".
heh.

[Sir Apple]

I miss-understand.

Not completely sure what your suggesting?

[BuLL]

I`m suggesting that inexperienced peeps can quite easily make an asset for a game,from a simple cylinder?.....I didn`t realise it was so confusing!
And yes it`s a ww2 model..That`s the point of posting here!....If that`s ok...
Don`t want to tread on anyones toes.

[Halfdark]

Looks pretty good actually, considering it's basically just a cylinder and a quick-and-dirty skin.

Wont comment on the historical accuracy but if you did this in half an hour, well done.

Please do so...I based it on googled images only.
This as a template for max.

And this for the render.

Are there other versions I`m unaware of?

If we're going in for constructive critism it looks a little short and fat to me. Might just be the perspective though.

[Maniche]

Even I can make that grenade, nice!

Do you want a model like that, Naga?

I guess the piccy I used for the template must be off "dimensionally".I made the plane in max to the same aspect ratio of the piccy & the model exactly fit`s in max...Wierd.

You got any ref pics that show the true dimensions of this type of nade at all?

@ maniche..Go for it bud..Knock yerself out...I love seeing what other peeps come up with..Crack on

There are many other versions, this one looks like a raped M24 if you ask me.



Have a look at the image. English isn?t my native language so I?ll try to explain.
First the square, as you see the font you have is different then this one, minor detail but it annoys a historical nerd like me. Then the circle, you see those half circled thingies coming out of the cylinder? Your model is missing them. Then the line, even though you used an image I get the feeling that your image is not an M24 as it says but some sort of Communist copy, China for example build their own potato mashers, etc. From the eye I definitely think the grip should be longer. And last but not least, the Reichs stamp of approval is never found on grenades, definitely not on the grip.

Hope this helps!
