# GMod Vape Model Commission Brief ## Project Overview I am looking for a custom 3D vape model for use in Garry's Mod (Source Engine). The model should be based on the attached reference image but modified to suit a game environment. The goal is to create a model that looks clean, recognizable, and high quality while still fitting naturally within the visual style of Garry's Mod. It should not be ultra-photorealistic or excessively detailed, as that can look out of place alongside standard GMod and Source Engine assets. ## Reference Use the attached vape device as the primary reference for shape and proportions. ## Design Requirements ### Body * Replace the printed artwork section with a plain white body. * The white section will be textured and skinned by us later. * No branding, logos, text, or graphics should be included on the white body. ### Black Components Retain the following parts in black as shown in the reference: * Mouthpiece * Upper cap/ring assembly * Bottom baseplate ### Front Face * Remove the digital status screen entirely. * Replace it with a small circular LED/light position similar to the real device. * The LED area only needs to be modeled as a small recessed hole, lens, or light housing. We will handle the actual blinking effect in-game. ## Art Style The model should be: * Game-ready * Clean and readable * Slightly stylized rather than photorealistic * Consistent with Garry's Mod / Source Engine assets * Detailed enough to look good in first person without appearing overly realistic or visually out of place Please avoid excessive micro-detailing that would only be noticeable at extreme close range. ## Performance Requirements Performance is important. The model should: * Use efficient topology * Avoid unnecessary polygons * Maintain a clean silhouette * Prioritize in-game performance while still looking good in first person Suggested polycount targets: ### World Model * Approximately 800–1,500 triangles ### View Model * Approximately 1,500–3,000 triangles These are guidelines rather than strict limits. ## Required Deliverables ### World Model Third-person model visible to other players. ### View Model First-person model visible when the player is holding the vape. The view model should be optimized for close-up viewing and may contain additional geometry where beneficial. ## UV Mapping & Materials * Fully UV unwrapped * Clean UV layout * No overlapping UVs unless necessary * Materials named clearly * White body section separated appropriately for easy retexturing * Texture-ready for custom skins ## Source Engine Compatibility Please provide: * Source files (.blend preferred, .fbx acceptable) * Exported model files * QC files if applicable * Any texture/material files used The model should be suitable for compiling into Garry's Mod without requiring major modifications. ## Additional Notes * Correct scale for handheld use in Garry's Mod. * Origin/pivot positioned appropriately. * Smooth shading where appropriate. * No animations required unless discussed separately. * Model should look natural both in first person and when viewed by other players. * The final result should feel like a polished GMod/SWEP asset rather than a photorealistic product render.

Hello, I am excited about creating a custom 3D vape model for Garry's Mod that meets your specific requirements. By utilizing the attached reference image, I will craft a clean, recognizable, and high-quality model that seamlessly integrates into the game environment. The design will feature a plain white body, black components as indicated, and a small circular LED to replace the digital screen. Ensuring game-ready quality, the model will be optimized for performance with efficient topology and a clean silhouette. With a polycount target of 800–1,500 triangles for the world model and 1,500–3,000 triangles for the view model, the focus will be on maintaining visual appeal while prioritizing in-game performance. For deliverables, I will provide the world and view models, fully UV unwrapped and texture-ready, along with the necessary Source Engine compatibility files. Effective communication during Australia's time zone will be maintained throughout the project. Please have a look at our Freelancer Portfolio through the links given below. https://www.freelancer.com/u/CreativeDesign50 Looking forward to your positive response to establish a business relationship that will benefit both of us.

Hello, I reviewed your GMod vape model brief and understand the goal is to create a clean, game ready asset that matches Source Engine standards, remains performant in first person and third person views, and is easy for your team to skin and integrate. I have experience creating optimized game assets with proper topology, UVs, material separation, and engine friendly exports, and I can share relevant examples once we connect in chat. Also a quick question: will the view model need to match an existing SWEP hand rig or will it be used as a standalone prop initially? Best Regards, Muskan

I've created similar custom 3D assets for game environments, including detailed prop models optimized for performance and visual fidelity within the Source Engine, which aligns perfectly with your need for a GMod-ready vape model. My focus is on achieving a balance between recognizable detail and the stylized aesthetic common in Garry's Mod, ensuring it integrates seamlessly with existing assets. My workflow involves high-poly modeling in Blender, followed by retopology to create an efficient low-poly mesh suitable for real-time rendering. I'll then bake detailed normal maps, diffuse, and metallic/roughness maps to achieve the desired look without sacrificing performance. UV unwrapping will be done efficiently to maximize texture resolution. What are your specific requirements for texture resolution and polygon count to ensure optimal performance within GMod? Would you prefer PBR textures or a more traditional Source Engine diffuse/normal map workflow? I'm available for a quick chat to discuss these details further.
