3D Model of the M41A Pulse Rifle

This project’s goal was to model and texture a mesh of a well know sci-fi gun using only screenshots and production stills. I decided to model the M41A Pulse Rifle from the movie, Aliens (1986, Director James Cameron). I proceeded to research screenshots, production stills and other information on how the movie prop was constructed using real world guns and other items.
