I find myself liking that sniper quite a bit. Then again, I'm a detail whore to a fault :gonk:

Hunter
April 9th, 2008, 01:58 PM
Remember my old sniper? The one where I edited the original sniper rifle. I will try and dig it up later.

There are also parts on the sniper I hate though, and just rushed, Like on of the sides of the part the scope attaches onto, I just could not model that shape, so I just added loads of polygons and did the rest Lol.

You can probably see it on the wire frame, its the horrible and untidy part.

Edit: I have just noticed I have done that render wrong, I will put an updated render on later.

rossmum
April 9th, 2008, 02:03 PM
Either way, it's certainly a few steps up from last time. Nice to see your posts are actually legible now, too. :v:

Hunter
April 9th, 2008, 03:00 PM
Pictures updated. (Sniper Rifle renders fixed)

Edit 1:
Also, do I use smoothing groups right? Because I do no know how to use them at all Lol.
I have just guessed.

Edit 2:
I found my old Sniper which I made by modifying the original Halo 1 Sniper. I still like my old one better Lol. *sarcasm*

Anyway...ontopic

i don't think that you should ignore people or you will never improve, you should just deal with the fact that not every one will necessarily like your models and try to use there criticism to improve your models. I think the models are awesome by the way :).

Ignore those who make REALLY immature posts and assumptions, not everyone that you think is trying to insult or make fun of you. That leads to the creation of a god-complex, which was Striders case.

Good models.

Hunter
April 10th, 2008, 05:43 AM
Okay. Thanks. I will listen to people and take insults from "Tweek" as sarcasim.

I think I will finnish BR as well. Then I will probobly model the Assult Rifle.

rossmum
April 10th, 2008, 06:03 AM

Hunter
April 10th, 2008, 06:08 AM
Lol. To some people, he probobly helps me but he puts the advice in an insult Lol.

Ok lets stay on-topic now. I will try and finnish the Battle Rifle soon.

I would tonight but my mum wants the computer Lol. Hopfully I should be able to get a laptop soon, but I need £1400 for a good one. And Im only in school stil Lol. (Im 16) So its pretty hard to get my hands on that sort of money.

I could probobly make them more acurate as well seems as I can model them in my room where my xbox360 is.

g2g now anyway, got Maths :( Cya.

sorry to derail the topic a bit, but i'm tired of this crap. Null, i got nothing against you...but all these little mini-posts are a waste of bandwidth, annoying, and not to mention against the rules. You've done it plenty of times, and i guess nobody really told you to cut it out. if you got nothing really to add to a topic, then please, don't treat this as an AIM convo, or just refrain from posting.

Agreed.










[/sarcasm] You come to a forum to speak your mind, not restate what others have said. Its not about giving highfives to people, its about complementing them on their work and telling them what they can do to improve. If you want to say "wow awesome" to everybody's work without giving any criticism, I suggest halomaps.org.

Im just doing this part time whilst I do the Battle Rifle.
It is "sKc Chains" custom assault rifle.

He has asked me to model it for a thread (http://forum.halomaps.org/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=16852) hes got going.

looks a bit funky, but we'll see how it turns out. I seriously have no idea why theres a flap on the top, though.

rossmum
April 21st, 2008, 11:51 AM
Interesting.

Hunter
April 21st, 2008, 02:02 PM
Yeah. Sorry I had like 2 seconds before I had to go out. Just made the little animation to show where the clip goes... Lol

The character opens that flap and a spring pushes the clip up. The flap will open more though so there's room for it to come out.

p.s. Credit to sKc Chains for the design.

Edit: OMG... Ive just made a triple post. Sorry about that moderators. I really did not notice. Sorry.

completely ridiculous location for a trap door over a clip, for any rifle. It wouldn't work with a traditional layout rifle, nor a bullpup. Needs better design location and practicality. overall, the concept is outright ridiculous, but the modeling seems OK.

I was supposed to animate that gun for you guys when it was done

Hunter
April 24th, 2008, 07:15 AM
I was thinking about the clip. I was wondering how it is going to go into it, and how the rounds are going to be fed to the barrel.

I think Chains said that you were going to tell people how to animate good or something on halomaps. "ironclad"

Edit: First post has got new pictures.

April 28th, 2008, 02:20 PM
The front grip on the AR looks none too comfortable. Maybe put some effort into making it look good instead of using repeated bevels? Not only is that wasteful, but it doesn't even get the right appearance.

Hunter
April 28th, 2008, 02:21 PM
Yeah, I need to remake that part. I couldn't think of what to do for that part.

rossmum
April 28th, 2008, 02:35 PM
Oh Christ that thing must be painful to shoot. Nice model, but the design (not yours, I know) is terrible.

You'd get a fucking blade rammed into your shoulder with every shot, amongst other things...

Hunter
April 28th, 2008, 02:44 PM
I was thinking about that Lol.
Im going to see if there is anything I can do witht the blade, I might be able to get rid of the spike and make that part blunt.

SnaFuBAR
April 28th, 2008, 03:21 PM
you used bevel wayyyy too many times on that model. it looks really bad. i'll tell you again, high res meshes do not make good models. just because it's higher poly doesn't make it good. It's an awful design and the model looks like you got lazy half way through.

Hunter
April 29th, 2008, 02:40 AM
Tell me anyother way to make a model... other than pull out new sides from a plane...

SnaFuBAR
April 29th, 2008, 02:56 AM
you don't know how to manually turn edges?

Hunter
April 29th, 2008, 03:37 AM
By clicking the edge, then holding shift and draging out a new face? :/

ItsMeTerror
April 29th, 2008, 06:41 AM
No, go to "Poly Mode" then under the "Edit Polys" tab there should be a button that says turn click it. Then it will show tons of dashed white lines in polys. It's dividing which way your polygon is made and the way it will curve.

Am I right here Snaf?

Hunter
April 29th, 2008, 08:03 AM
You learn something everyday :D

Edit:
I don't understand what you want me to do with this tool, it just turns the edges...

How the hell is your elephant meant to move :S
it hasnt got any sign of treads or wheels on and what you're currently using for the "wheels/treads" is solid, your meant to make it so it will work, unless it works like that in halo :S if so then thats just stupid.
but if in halo its a workin model then you need to rethink about your treads, because your meant to be remodelin the actual things out of halo in if it isnt workin exact then it isnt a remodel of them or improvements because it will be slidin not actually moving properly!!!!

There are tints of blue and green on the other pictures because some other parts of the surroundings where a redish colour as well as the snake...

And the 5 Megapixel camera is a bit grainy don't you think? Although some of the pictures where taken in the dark.

A great alternative to what you're trying to achieve with spoiler tags are tags. They resize the image to a much nicer scroll-past size, and people can see your work as soon as they open the page. Just use them like shot tags:

i've got one gripe with that.

you're still making the same stuff.
are you afraid to try something new and actually make something yourself instead of copying things that are already made?
you're not going to learn anything by making the same thing 3 times


(also, generally speaking nowadays, first person models are up to 15k polygons, so if you're aiming for a 4k first person model, you're a few years behind. and i base this not of what's in stores now, but on what's in development now.)

It's not a bad shot, could be better, but you already recognize that. It obviously is hard to get a good angle on an insect.

I find sometimes you have to make the choice between getting a generic shot of a cool thing that you can show your friends, or risking getting a more creative shot that might not work at all, and end up with nothing to show. I generally go for the second option.

Also, I really hate it when people say "it was taken by an x-megapixel camera." Megapixels have nothing whatsoever to do with image quality. I am impressed with the quality of that phone camera though.

PenGuin1362
July 27th, 2010, 10:17 PM
the point of doing 3D art is not to get approval from other people. It's to make things that you will be happy with when you finish them and will be proud of...and obviously look cool. And it's also to better your skills as you go and expand your talent across various styles and genres. The reason why it was pointless for you to keep doing halo stuff, It's the same style, over and over again, with little to no various in complexity, just the amount of time put into it. The one thing that military modeling has to offer (for me anyway) is even though it lacks style and originality, there's still the challenge of creating a complex and large vehicle or weapon while also keeping it within a decent Triangle range, and still have it look ascetically pleasing and realistically convincing. I usually choose something a bit more challenging and complex than the previous thing i modeled.

So choose something that will be fun and challenging.

The post was aimed at more of: is this a good idea?

Something, different/not copying from a game. ya'know, something ive been moaned at for so long, but "ok" will do I supose.Do what you will. Don't let people bully you away from your passions. They're just being lazy with their critique and blaming the subject. Just do a better job and they'll shut their traps.

For instance, you should try to avoid 1:1 translation of Bungie assets. Learn to to pick out what's right about Bungie's work and what's wrong about it. They aren't perfect. They get sloppy. They take shortcuts. They omit important details, while adding useless ones.

Broaden your reference material. If you're modeling an assault rifle, don't just use screenshots as reference, use real-life weapons, fictional weapons from other fictional universes, industrial parts, etc. to help you improve on Bungie's design. Modeling a black hawk instead of a Pelican or a Humvee instead of a Warthog is not going to make you better. But modeling a Pelican using Blackhawk reference or a Warthog using Humvee reference would take your work to the next level.

You don't have to be an "artiste" to be a 3D modeler. But if you are trying to develop an art background, you should set aside 3D and concentrate on traditional media, taking lessons and doing exercises. Switching styles or subject matter in 3D isn't going to make any difference to your artistic ability compared to sticking with Halo. But like I said, you don't need to wear a beret and grow a soul patch to do good work or get good work. If Halo inspires you, use that. Do the best you can and be your own worst critic. That's all you need to get better.

SnaFuBAR

PenGuin1362
July 28th, 2010, 07:45 PM
The problem with copy already made game art is what you're modeling has already been made into a model and all you're doing really is mimicking their same moves. It'd definitely help to add your own spin on to it, and like you mentioned use outside references to better bungie's models. But I still feel as though it'd be more beneficial to make something based off a reference that isn't an in game model. If you like bungie's stuff, perhaps you might try and find some of their concept art from like the original Halo days and try and model something that never actually made it past the concept stages. This way you get some experience with using your own creativity to better it and you're working from something that isn't already a game model. Really either way works, this is just my opinion on how I think you can better your skill. Which 3D modeling is more of a tool set skill than an art, for most anyway.

ejburke
July 28th, 2010, 08:49 PM
A screenshot is just concept art that has been mathematically solved. If he can learn to unsolve it in his mind and come up with his own solution, then he's good to go. A lot of the scrapped concept art was not produced for a reason.

3D is cool, because a modeler can take a very analog/right-brained approach or a very digital/left-brained approach. You can be an artist or a mathematician and be equally good (at different aspects). The ultimate is to be both, but that's not realistic for everyone. And that's okay. 3D is getting more and more procedural all the time. Things that require skills now will be a button-push in a few years. Things that required skill a few years ago are NOW done with the push of a button. I think you'll know you're on the right track as a 3D modeler when you mutter to yourself, "These tools suck for what I want to do." That's what you'll be saying to yourself when you're truly pushing the boundaries of your technique and that's when you'll be producing really exciting stuff.

I agree with the part where copying the existing model is pointless, as I can easily just use the lighting to see the edges. But with the Halo:Reach Granade Launcher I didnt actually look at tthe poly placement in order to achieve the same effect, so I beleive i'm improving. And its sub'd as well, not perfect, but new to what I usually do.

The only reason I model Halo designs because I really like the style, and Halo:Reach designs are just like amazing, because they look cool and realistic. And I know I won't move forward. But I start University to study Game Design in September :) So I will have plenty of chances to design my own concepts and model other things, went in today for an event and met some guy who is a concept artist, so maybe I can get him to draw me something :)

And I sure hope things like 3D models won't be generated from a click of a button one day because my learning will be pointless then :P haha. And I agree with almost everything you guys have said above, tah :)

There's nothing wrong with copying, as long as you add your style to it. Artists over the centuries have always been taught their master's style, later on in their training, they improve on the style and make it their own. Copying let's you learn the basics, but you still have to make your own style. Also it's Grenade, not Granade.

Honestly, there's nothing realistic about Reach's design. The weapons are getting a bit ridiculous in design and alot more boxy. I don't get why they dropped the sleekness of the covie weapons for more crude design.

Why not start early? Have something to show before you start? If you really like this field, why wait?

sorry, but this is a bit more complex than a click of a button:
http://www.cyberware.com/products/scanners/ps.html

The industry have always been able to convert physical model to 3d digital and vice versa. this is generally used in car design (or that's where I usually see this technology being used), but have been used for games (I believe guitar hero 3 used this to get musician faces ingame).

Computer still make errors and these usually have very high density meshes. until games can run millions of polies per object in real time, you won't be out of a job.

ejburke
July 30th, 2010, 05:31 PM
Well, if you want to learn things that won't become obsolete, then go with traditional media. 3D applications are going to continue to make it easier and easier to produce high-quality assets quickly. The algorithms we use in our head can be adapted to code. It's not a matter of if, but when.

I'm working on a set of Maya scripts that will automatically add support edges to my hard surface models. It's pretty messy stuff, but it's doable. I posted in another thread about a tool that automatically retopologizes a mesh with pretty good results. The future is coming and in many ways, it's already here.

Too low poly and texture map seems to low resolution.

He did say he was only allowed 4000 triangles. Though to be fair, those extra 832 triangles could be used to smooth out the grip areas and make the flash hider look less two generations ago.

I always thought the PP 2000 was an interesting SMG. Wouldn't mind owning an airsoft variant.

4000 triangle limit and 1024 texture size only. And I suppose I could of used the remaining triangles but there really isn't any need to make it perfect as this module is called "Introduction to 3D Modelling for Games".

Explain... don't just put "No."

I felt that a simple word was all that was necessary to point out the fallacy of your statement, but that was apparently wrong.

If you're going to take the time to do something, you might at least try to make it as good as you can. This just smacks of laziness.

No, there is simply no need to spend more time on it when it passes the need with flying colours... I do have other work to do which is needed more...

That'd be cool, but be prepared to repair it every 30 minutes.

Well, if you want to learn things that won't become obsolete, then go with traditional media. 3D applications are going to continue to make it easier and easier to produce high-quality assets quickly. The algorithms we use in our head can be adapted to code. It's not a matter of if, but when.

I'm working on a set of Maya scripts that will automatically add support edges to my hard surface models. It's pretty messy stuff, but it's doable. I posted in another thread about a tool that automatically retopologizes a mesh with pretty good results. The future is coming and in many ways, it's already here.

I have to agree with this. Older game cutscenes were done with the best technology at the time. By today's standards it looks like ass. Pretty soon the tools we have now are going to be obsolete.

this was the SHIT back in the day. But now it's horribly dated.
