    For starters; add scratches and dents and rust if necessary. Your current "metal" looks like a jacket found on a rock singer from the 1970's.

    I wouldn't call that a example to be followed :/

    There is nothing wrong with the metal itself just that leather overlay that's screwing the default textures, also those lines of the wood look more realistic if they run along the grip not around it.

    Pros:

    • Decent handle

    Cons:

    • The wood is okay (7/10).
    • The metal is completely ridiculous.

    What could i do to improve the metal?
