Can I Use Blender to Create Weapon Models for Fallout 4?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a user showcasing their third 3D modeling creation, inspired by the classic PC game Quake 2 from 1998. They utilized Blender, a free 3D modeling software, to create their models. Other participants share their experiences with different 3D modeling tools, such as Pov-Ray and Moray, highlighting their long-term engagement with the craft. One user, who has been modeling for nearly 20 years, encourages the original poster to continue practicing, noting that improvement comes with time. The original model was intended as a weapon mod for Fallout 4, but the creator expresses limited knowledge about integrating models into games, indicating a desire to learn more about the technical aspects of game modding.

This is only the third thing that I've created in 3D modeling.

If you played the PC video game Quake 2 back in 1998, then you might remember this.

Could you say more about how you created these drawings/models?
 
I used a free 3D program called Blender.

Whoops, sorry for the double post.

I have Blender, but I don't use it too often, as I started my 3D modeling with Pov-Ray and then added Moray as an editor and it's what I've come the most comfortable with.
Here's an couple of examples of some weapons I rendered. (A collection of various SF weapons)

I've been at it for almost 20 yrs now, but still remember when I first started out. If you had told me then that I would ever be able to produce anything close to the last two images, I would have not believed you . Keep up the good work and you'll be be amazed by what you can produce with time and practice.

Thanks!

The railgun model I made was actually meant to be used as a weapon mod for the PC video game Fallout 4. But I only know how to do 3D modeling, and just barely.

Someone told me that you can use blender to create weapon models, and then use other programs and eventually get it into the game. But that's outside my technical expertise.
