Camera animations can fake a lot of movement
I was given a very cool gun to animate by Katja Linssen. Had fun coming up with different angles to show the different parts. It was also a good way to practice rendering in Unreal See below for Katja's portfolio. There's a lot of amazing hard-surface artwork!

Layers 🥇
📔Anim Tip #5: Hand Shake Layer 🪇 If you flex your arm, you'll feel your muscles vibrate and it shakes your fist. During polish, add a shake anim layer on the IK hand ctrl when the muscles are tight or hit a hard surface. It'll be more powerful, in the same way as camera shake!

📔𝗔𝗻𝗶𝗺 𝗧𝗶𝗽 #𝟭: Key Pose to Key Pose Speed up or cut out the inbetween frames of your anim! Inbetween poses will never look as appealing as key poses, and gameplay anims are limited on length, so try to hold frames on the key poses and speed through the inbetween frames!
