Commented on Resistor Sniper Staff Staff creation

Oh i love the techno-magic style, very appealing concept. Your model is really good, i like how it resembles real weapon but is far enough from it to fit in family-friendly game, well done!
However, there are quite some staff 'guns' in Neon theme: Geno Gatling, Gamma Ray, Portable K.R.O.C. and Arc Artillery, plus couple more in other themes too. Any chance you could recolor your model to fit some other biome? Treasure Isles for example, or may be even candoria?
If not, id at least suggest to try Luminopolis colors of may be pink-red-yellows or may be make it fit Resistor theme?
From the technical side, you d need to rotate your staff 180 degrees by Y to fit in Trove orientation. With model positioned that way you d be able to properly preview it in game (and get a screenshot of it while you r there).
You d also need to check the dimensions of your staff. All staff weapons need to fit in the 9x9x35 around the Attachment Point, that ensures that they will look and work good on all staff-using classes during all animations. At the moment your design is a bit too long.
Please keep an eye on colors too, no voxel can be darker than 10.10.10 RGB, Trove stops reflecting light at that point.
Exootex has a point, Material maps can be really helpful to add some shine and glow to the design. Plain voxels work just fine ofc but with Maps most of designs look even prettier :)
Going to set status of your creation to Active, change it back to Needs Review if you upload updated model. If you d rather create something completely new, set status of this one to Draft, that will free up a creation slot for another style.
In any case, good luck!
