AX-50 Tactical

A high-detail, tactically accurate sniper rifle model designed for real-time rendering, emphasizing precision modeling, realistic texturing, and functional authenticity. This project demonstrates advanced techniques in hard-surface modeling, material work, and optimization for game-ready assets.

• Role: Weapon Designer & Prop Modeler
• Responsibilities: High-poly and low-poly modeling, UV unwrapping, texturing, material setup, and rendering for presentation
• Tools Used: Blender, Substance 3D Painter, Substance Stager, Affinity Photo
• Research Applied: Modern military references were used to ensure that the design of the AX-50 Tactical sniper rifle was both functional and accurate, reflecting real-world specifications and usability. Raj et al. (2019) guided the texturing process, particularly for metallic surfaces, helping achieve a balance between realism and optimization. This approach ensured the weapon model maintained high visual fidelity while remaining suitable for real-time rendering in game environments.
