Unfortunatley I dont have enything pleasant to say about it either. I just dont like it..
I also dont like how everyone thinks that the l9 should only be steel texture rather then wood or plastic, Just upsets me...
You could have took more time on this mod for real bro... I suck at photo cs5 and could have done better in 5 mins.. Be patient pay attention to detail and relook at YOUr SCREEN SHOT of the ingame. Find the flaws and fix them. Saturate more, sharpen metal surfaces Turn down brightness to get better screenie (brightness reflects silver as white if you have high end gcard) Take shots inside and outside (good place for that is junk flea See how the dynamic lighting is reflecting off your textures.
You dont have to do any of this how ever it will help.. Relize everyone in this section thinks they are the best thing that ever touched photo and you won't get any positive feed till you have achieved true perfection and then they will still tear at your release because thier neglected children with nothing better to do.
You'll figure it out eventually, I dont even release nothing anymore I only make mods for myself.
