Don't get me wrong, it's a well executed model and normal bake, just the surface materials don't seem like they belong on that gun.
In reference to metal objects, most of the time the color is actually rather dark, while the specular does most of the bright 'lighting' work. A method I generally do for guns with wear is to make a layer for the actual 'metal,' then put another layer over top of it for the paint (with a very slight drop shadow) and just use a small (1-3 pixel) scattered brush to erase away the 'paint layer'- hit that with some sharpen and it generally gives a nifty result!
im not there yet,, especially with theee effing specular! ill keep what you told me in mind, trying to make the metal colors darker and sharper details!
really thanks for your advised opinions!
