Long stroke? Or short? (Hope I'm not annoying anyone)

Long stroke.
And no, you aren't annoying anyone at all. You're most welcome to ask questions

Looks like another 3D Sunda may be coming up. 
I've got a few doubts here. What is supposed to be on the other side of the receiver, when it comes to fire selector, reloading lever and brass ejection window? The same things mirrored, or perhaps just cover plates in those places? And why exactly is the reloading lever folded forward?

It seems like people like this one a lot! A Sunda is a flying lemur. Al my weapons have animal names, some more familiar than others
The fire selector, charging handle, magazine catch, bolt release catch and ejection port are all present on the other side as well. The only change would be that there's a cover plate on top of the ejection port. You can screw it off, change the bolt head's rotation, and make sure to screw the cover plate onto the other side's ejection port.
By reloading lever I assume you mean charging handle? If so, it's like that to make the gun thinner, and so your charging handle wouldn't get stuck behind clothing, equipment, etc. it folds open, just like the Kriss Vector's charging handle.

Yeah, charging handle! That's what I meant.Β Those weapon terms can be hard to get right, when one has no access to the real thing.
So, it does fold forward, I kinda thought it would, but never noticed there's such a solution used in any real weapon. Also a quick search shown that people "are still having some issues with properly charging Kriss Vector".
Where's the bolt release catch on this one? Can't exactly put my finger on it... I assume that the window in the back with triangle arrows marked on it is the ejection window?
I forgot to ask about the muzzle device. Is it based on a real one, so that I can get oblique view to model it properly?
Indeed, Sunda is one of the best of the best here! Looks elegant and realistically uncomplicated. The seemingly straightforward construction lends itself to 3D modeling too - but now I can tell that those straight lines can be deceiving! 
I've got most part done already, now only the details remain. I'm not showing a WIP yet as I want to see if I can work some 'wow factor' into it first. Also the materials will require much care, I am shooting for photorealistic quality here!
If this works well, Sunda may be just the first in the line. I am already sharpening my teeth for Stingray, Aardwolf, Alopex and Greyhounds.

You'll learn the terms real quick when used rather often 
The bolt release catch is located behind the ejection port. (indeed, that window with the small triangles on the visible part of the bolt is the ejection port)
The bolt release catch would be that vertical grey rectangle thingy just in front of the stock pad.
The flash hider is based on the Mk.12 SPR's flash hider, as seen here. www.kingarms.com/productimagesβ¦
Mine's just got a ring around it is all.
I thank you for the compliment about the Sunda. I still remember how it kept looking off for about 70% of the time and progress, and all of a sudden I changed a couple of things around, and it all made sense. It still is one of my personal favourites.
I honestly can't wait to see the finished product, my friend! I've sneaked around through your gallery, and I was not disappointed! Be sure to shoot me a message when finished! I can't wait for others in line as well! Would you like to do the Sidewinder as well?

I turned out to be more busy this week than expected. But today I force-made some time for it, and here it is!
fav.me/d8znz80
It's done in about 80%. Few geometrical details are missing. Surface materials are my main concern at this stage. They're quite advanced already but will need adjustments for sure. I'm not entirely content with the random weathering effects too.
Too much self-doubt?... Well, I saw peterku 's works and now I'll never be satisfied.
Anyway, any remarks are welcome. If anything should be different, don't hesitate to tell me. Shouldn't I make the weapon a little wider?
Obviously I re-used my old ammo clip from MSBS. And I wonder how the flip-up sights should exactly look like, side view doesn't tell me much...
Time constraints are "to be or not to be" of the whole project, but if Xaotherion Industries War Dept. gets around to making the whole line of guns, squeezing Sidewinder in there should be no problem!
I can already tell that in such case, the Space Branch products are gonna be licensed as well.

I left you some feedback on the image itself. Weird question perhaps, but how possible is it to print this using a 3D printer?
π: 0 β©: 1
Not a weird question at all. I'd love to try it myself. But such machines are pretty much above the pay grade around here, so I have exactly zero practical experience with them.
I've done some reading on this topic earlier, being super curious about it anyway. So it should be possible to get the model done, but it would take some specific adjustments. Merging/splitting of the parts, or somesuch... The exact kind of these I can't tell, not having a way to experiment in practice.
π: 0 β©: 1
I was expecting an answer like that, actually. Quite a shame, it would be so incredibly amazing to even hold one of my own rifles.
Nevertheless, I was blown out of my chair seeing your work of it already
π: 0 β©: 1
There's no reason why I couldn't send you the file when it's finished. Maybe you can find someone who is able to fix it properly for printing.
I am totally decided to save up for a decent quality printer - once I'm able to do so (I'm not gonna buy cheapest one around only to watch as it keeps malfunctioning).
Then, I would devise a way to cut the model in parts - so they can be printed and assembled into live-size thing. Would most likely consume a good couple of filament spools, but heck, I'd totally do it!

i made a textured version of my model however i need to get better with texturing as my current submission doesn't really do the model justice

I made a model of this rifle let me know what you think.

What I think? I think it's goddamn brilliant, man! Amazing!

It looks most like the 5,56 MSBS radon, and only just. It looks all original to me.

The scope makes me think XM29 SABR, Butt looks like a fad without the canting, nice gun anyway!

Looks like a tiny AUG almost.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, there is no hope for you. You are the type of person who can't tell Asians apart because they all look the same. You didn't say Kel-Tec or FAMAS. You are just an idiot who makes comments without even thinking.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well there's no reason to get this pissed about it.
π: 0 β©: 0
Hahaha, I have the some idiots commenting on my guns like this too. You gotta love stupid people.
π: 0 β©: 0
Has the sane shape.
π: 0 β©: 2
Same*
No wonder why you can't tell the difference. You're a person who lacks a rational thought process.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I haven't seen the weapon in a while, so I thought they looked the same, my bad.
π: 0 β©: 1
That's no excuse to being an uninformed idiot.
π: 0 β©: 1
Jesus, so designing a weapon suddenly makes you king of the world, doesn't it?
π: 0 β©: 1
Coming from someone who couldn't tell the difference between two different objects is just hilarious. I'm sorry that you can't tell the different between Chinese or Japanese people. Nor could you tell the difference between a Dell or Mac.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I don't know too much about firearms, I know some guns by looking at them, and comparing them to yours or shockwave's wasn't a very rational decision, and I recognize that. And the fact that I am not extensively educated in firearms doesn't mean I'm an idiot. It may to you, but to anyone else, probably not.

Glad we sorted this out.

in that case, all bullpups have the same shape.

I've tried dealing with morons like him, there is no helping them. They can't even tell the difference between a circle and oval.

Listen, so I make a mistake on the shape of a gun, and you go full blown dickwad on me. Jesus, get off your period.
π: 0 β©: 1
Look, I understand everyone makes mistakes. However, if you make a mistake, many people will point it out to you. The reason why I'm a dick is because I see comments like this all the time. After a while, it becomes annoying and you find yourself easily wanting to say something.
π: 0 β©: 1
I see your point, I find it annoying every time I see a your/you're mistake, and I apologize if I was stupid or rude.
π: 0 β©: 1
It's all good. I honestly don't mind. I just tend to rant a lot without any reason.
π: 0 β©: 1
Other than the AUG, it doesn;t have a similar shape to this.
π: 0 β©: 0
still don't know how you got that magazine area in the stock....???
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm not too sure about what exactly it is that you mean.
π: 0 β©: 1
how did you get the part that holds the magazine in?
π: 0 β©: 1
Like I built nearly 80% of this rifle, using shapes.
You can find them in PMG under Parts > Etc > Shapes
