Evaluation for 3D Animation

For my 3D animation I decided to design a 3D Gun Shooting. The basic idea was for the gun to shoot a bullet and for the camera to change shots/views.
I chose this type of design because im a huge first person shooting fan, whether it be to everyones taste, I dont know but for me I enjoy them and I have enjoyed experimenting on this attempt to create a 3D Gun.
I started by making a plane and adding a picture of the pistol "Desert Eagle", I then used the line tool to crop out the gun and extruded. I then made a cilinder and used Pro Boolean to crop the gun hole. After I added a green camo to the gun to make it look realistic. The bullet was created from a cyclinder which was then morphed into a bullet, which was then given a gold camo.
I used 3 cameras in total which followed the bullets movement.
If I was asked to do this again I would probably design a house or something different because it would be unique.
Making the Gun animation was very difficult sometimes because alot of the camera angles were very difficult to make it look realistic, another problem was the Bullet hole on the gun as my friends showed me "pro boolean" tool.

Here is my final Animation.

Evaluation of 3D Model

For my 3D project I decided to design a 3D Plane, there are many reasons to my
choice, as I wanted to use an idea which would be classed as transport. My reasons for
not developing a car or a boat is that I personally wanted to try something that
would be more complex and challenging, as making cars and boats is constantly
created by the majority of the students .

If I was to do this project again, I would probably make something totally different, for
example a weapon or a city.

Timelines were very important during development of my plane, because it helped me keep
track of what parts needed to be done at certain time to achieve my final goal.

I believe my model was unique, but I also think it can be improved. Improvements such
as more detail to the shape of the plane, the style of the plane (Customization) and I could
also add more features such as an extra engine.                                                              
This is my Final Design and a prototype picture
