Mad78 Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Listen to what Kryt said Tofu.Though I wouldn't try and win that competition I think you could work on the project but without entering it. It should allow you to work on something and make getting the basics easier. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Krytos Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Well, as I'm applying to various places I'm expanding my portfolio somewhat. That A-Wing will take too long to finish for my portfolio (textures, renders, explosions bleh).So, some character modelling - just the one render at the moment, going for a game model. It should look better with a head and some textures. http://img351.imageshack.us/img351/1560/progressday01yo9.th.jpg On the left is the original concept art (I forget who did it, but it was made back in the day when Westwood were making Command and Conquer 3). I've drawn over the top with some guide lines for meshing it up - helps a lot .. well, for most of it. Can actually make some parts more confusing I'll plan the head tomorrow and model it, once done I'll optimise it manually, then use the original concept art to do the textures. Then, and only then I'll consider either making a higher poly version and lower poly and a normal mapped version (eep, that'll be a lot of work ) EDIT: Ah, crap -sorry fellas. I forgot to compress the file in Image Ready first.

Mad78 Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 That is very cool Kryt! Once I finish the three ships u am working on I have to get back to training on Character modelling. I also have to try making a few droids. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
DarthTofu Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 *Gapes in awe* I'll have some spare time soon, I think. I'll sketch up some images and scan them, or else use paint to produce them. I'd engineer rough sketches in Max, but I don't have the skillz to do so. Speaking of which, I should really run off and download a tutorial some time soon. 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

I need help with my texturing skills.I finally finished those bloody flats!Here is pic just so you can see how big it all is.http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/th_Arzierfini1.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Krytos Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 Textures were done with Photoshop and a Wacom tablet. I can't really think of any suggestions about it I had the concept art in front of me, made things easier. I used that to sample colours and slowly painted up in layers starting with a base colour and then dropping the opacity to 25% and flow to 55% for the brush tool and added darker and lighter shades for lighting. Finished model:http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/6458/nodsoldier01zu2.th.jpghttp://img294.imageshack.us/img294/9345/nodsoldier02dr4.th.jpghttp://img506.imageshack.us/img506/428/nodsoldier03qm9.th.jpghttp://img506.imageshack.us/img506/3043/nodsoldier04sp9.th.jpg Now for rigging I'm also thinking of making the textures a little lighter ... they're a bit dark http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
DarthTofu Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Okay- now can you make him green, send him through a short, thirty-second video as a protecting superhero of the environment, and credit me with all of the work? Please? Just jokin' with you. Very spiffy, Krytos... 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
Defender_16 Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 Nice stuff Krytos. (Is anyone else getting pop-up ads from Kryto's Imageshack links?) Hey J have you posted that one before? Durring the crash maybe? Seems kinda familiar. Yeah... just ignore me.

Darth_Rob Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 OK I have an artsy-type question. Lets say I have a picture of me, and a picture of Darth Vader. If I wanted to take my head from my picture and put it on Vader's body, can it be done with Gimp? Thats the only cool software I have. No PS.
