M4 Skin Ideas

A bunch of ideas for M4 skins

By general_zim 4 months ago

So, this is technically a request, as I think it'd be cool to see some of these done, but it's mainly just a thread to post some more modern M4 ideas for skinners / modelers to try out.

Very few M4 skins are up-to-date, and all of the different M4 variants used by USSOCOM are pretty damn bad-ass. Here's a few of them (fucking picture thing is being weird, you'll have to deal with links):

Also, these are pretty much painted 95% of the time, paint jobs vary from snake skin to weathered. They are very rarely left all black. Keep that in mind if you are going to skin one of these.

Mark 18 Mod 1 : http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/2286/img0040ubi.jpg

  • 10.5" Barrel with 9.5 Daniel Defense rail (Usually in Flat Dark Earth)
  • Crane stock
  • EOTech 551 or 553, Elcan SpecterDR 1-4x Articulating Telescope
  • PEQ-15 IR illuminator with dual switch
  • Vert gripz yo

Mark 18 Mod 0 CQBR with weathered paint job : http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/2286/img0040ubi.jpg

  • 10.5" Barrel with standard M4 length rail
  • Crane stock
  • EOTech 551, Aimpoint Comp M2 or M3
  • PEQ-2 IR illuminator
  • Surefire M3 Combat Light
  • Moar vert gripz

M4A1 SOPMOD Block II : http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll177/Countfloyd_Pics/Rifles%20and%20Blasters/M4SOPMODBlockII.jpg

  • 14.5" barrel with 12" Daniel Defense rail
  • Crane stock
  • ACOG, Elcan SpecterDR 1-4x Articulating Telescope
  • PEQ-15 IR illuminator

  • Even moar vert gripz

    If anyone wants to try to make these into skins and need more specifics or reference pictures, feel free to message me.

    So yeah, just figured I'd post this up and give people some ideas. It'd be cool to see some of these made for CSS skins or whatever.

    It'd be nice to see them made for CSS, though. I wish I had more talent in modelling and skinning because I'd make an attempt to tackle these projects myself :L

    This is how request treads should be done.

    Haha thank you sir, my main goal with this was to just give people ideas for new skins, I don't know if any of these will ever be made but hopefully this serves as a useful reference for those who try one of these projects.

    That's how it should be! Got some good material? Share it.

    Most definitely, considering 80% of the request threads I usually see are like "So um yeah I need this weapon from this movie from 1997 and I don't have any screenshots so make it anyway plz"
