Awesome 3D Breakdown Of How KelTec PLR16 Works

Hard-Surface Artist Lucas B has unveiled an impressive 3D presentation of the KelTec PLR-16 pistol, showcasing exceptional attention to detail.

According to Lucas, this project was a personal exploration that spanned nearly two years with breaks, driven by a deep interest in understanding firearm internals: how the components function, interact, and degrade over time through mechanical wear and morphological damage. It also served as a study in mechanical animation and visualization techniques, and had a strong emphasis on clean topology and UV layout.

As part of the project, Lucas generously shared all the project files on Marketplace. This includes the full Blender animation file featuring his custom system for composite object isolation, the high-poly ZBrush file, low-poly models, Substance 3D Painter project, textures, reference board, and more.
