I've been working on this mod way longer than I should have. I started it in 2016, but realized I had no idea how to 3D model, so I learned how to use Blender. As a film student, I began to see other practical uses for Blender and shoved the mod aside in favor of other projects. I eventually came back after getting better at modeling, but realized I had no idea how to texture, so learned how to texture. Saw what I could do with texturing and shoved the mod aside in favor of other projects. Came back again, realized the model could be better, so I learned to hard surface model. Realized how amazing hard surface modeling was and shoved the mod aside in favor of other projects. So then I returned once more, knowing how to use Blender, knowing how to texture, and knowing how to hard surface model. I did it. I made the models, and I made the textures, and my grandma died and the world fell apart due to COVID and I had no job and fell into depression. Oof that took a turn didn't it?I stopped caring about this mod entirely, and all I did was play Left 4 Dead and watch Bob's Burgers on repeat. But I'm back at work, done a couple of projects with my film school colleagues, and after seeing the .blend file sitting there crying for attention I decided I may as well finish this. Texture and the rest of weapon attachments will hopefully be done by the end of the week, or sometime after, but I'll soon be looking for an animator and this with close to finished.
The initial release of the mod will more than likely just be the weapons, but I have plans for quests involving (most of) the unique variants, as well as remodeling the ugly Far Harbor .45-70 rounds and intruding a couple new ammo types for some of the receiver mods. Oh and in case anyone is planning on putting this in some "Top x upcoming mods" video, my username is pronounced "four fourty-five". I’m serious Ò_Ó
It's been a long while but I hope this project isn't dead, however long it may take. The Brush Gun is one of the best NV weapons still missing from FO4, and your work does it complete justice.
Is this going to be on console because this looks fantastic and I’d love to be able to use it on my next Fallout 4 Xbox play though when the mod is done.
Finally a modder who even after years finally finishes his announced work.
Don't get me wrong, what the modders here are doing is awesome and I am grateful for it. I just cant stand the myriad of modders who announce all the beautiful content and never release a damn thing or when they do, its buggy and unfinished (C1pher comes to mind, announced several older fallout 3 weapons, released the r 91 half broken, announced a rerelease of that mod and never followed up with anything)
I intially saw your post on reddit but seeing it again here made me wonder, are you the same modder that previously uploaded this Brush Gun WIP screenshot? https://imgur.com/a/NinlCQ0
