you can create an overlay of the front and bottom, and move the vertices on your current mesh around so they fit those. Lot of work basically.

oh..the easiest wat to do this is as follows make a front and bottom shot.. and with your current mesh do ONE half of the gun.. copy it, and inverse it so you'll have two halfs of the gun, fit them together and you should have a nice gun

1 post is enough.. This is your real error: ********** ERROR ********** Could not find image file 'C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\Tools\model_export/weap on_models\US\Rifle\M1Carbine\hand.*' It's been a while since I exported a model but.... How did you export it? as a viewmodel or as a normal xmodel? Also.. if you just want to try editting the skin, you don't have to export the entire model again.. you can just take the skin file from the .pk3 file, alter it and add it to your own .pk3 file...
