Something in the materials tab?
Anyway, sweet first shot! Get bevelling!

(that reminds me, we really need a 3D modelling thread here)

It's the same color as the gun in blender, but then when I export it, and it opens up in the windows 3d builder it does that. Idk man.

What the hell, last time I tried blender (2 years ago as a highschool course) it took me a week to make a snowman. Is blender easy to learn or is my school's class just slow paced? Or maybe am I just dumb? lol

 

Learned it on my own in a matter of hours, I wouldn't know.

 

Also, I was using a reference image to build mine lol

Ohhhh right. Probably inverted faces. Select all the faces on the mag and then hit flip faces. 

Thanks man, I appriciate the help.

 

Also would you know how much estimated a 3D modeler would make yearly? I want to start getting into the business, but I don't know how to animate or anything.

I work as a 3D nerd freelance so I can't really comment on a yearly number with any reliability. $25p/hr tends to the going rate.
Safe to say though that just one customer last year commissioned enough for me to build a workstation pc.
What kind of modelling are you thinking? Art? Tech? Mechanical? It all varies from what I can gather. 

"The wheel?" "No thanks, I'll walk, its more natural" - thus was the beginning of the doom of the Human race.
Cheese monger.

Probably a modeler for fps games, as that's what I'm mostly into.

 

Even though being a freelancer sounds nice, I would like to work for a company.

There is one https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/160124-post-your-3d-modelscreations-here/

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

ᴾC SᴾeCS ᴰoWᴺ ᴮEᴸoW

Spoiler

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.
