So I'm just trying to copy the model of the smg from tf2. I'm basically new to Blender and I'm just trying to get this down. I tried looking up tutorials to see if it would help me, but none of them did. Thanks /3/

>>	Canada Sat Jul 13 17:43:33 2013 No.367091 >>367090 Mine came a little hard, but you get the idea, loop cuts will tell blender where to harden the smooth

>>	Anonymous Sat Jul 13 19:45:33 2013 No.367103 >>367090 But you just made a hard edge where there shouldn't be one.

>if it looks properly
Exactly, stretched and uneven tris will generate shading errors and might cause further problems when baking. The shading thing is especially important in OP's case, as he's recreating a model from a game that usually favors vertex normals over normal maps.
Long story short, realtime meshes sometimes need support verts too.
