you know i should REALLY stop looking at this thread as it's seriously discouraging me from doing any 3d modelling
This thread is actually helpful if you want to become a better modeler, it just takes time to improve, and make sure to listen to any criticism you get. Honestly the one thing I recommend to all new modelers is to keep things simple
Heres something I made when I tried too hard to make things complicated when I was new to modeling:

It doesn't look good at all and there are plenty of wrong things that I don't feel like pointing out, but you can probably see those problems already
chill with the bevels and u solid
Someone said this about the model and I took his advice, which ended up in me making this shortly after

Definitely not my best work, but it's an improvement compared to whatever that awp was supposed to be
And here I am now with this as my best model
