jcgrey2, do you have any idea how hard it is to animate an object like that? modeling it must've been a feat in itself.
I don't think he'll be able to do what you're saying because:
1. I don't think he made the gun seprate, so it'd be nearly impossible to make it rotate like it should.
2. an animation like that deserves to be in a showreel, he's probably keeping that render time for a different model.
3. it's epic enough
love the model nightmare :P simply epic.
