Covi Fusion Core

Well I decided to make a covi style fusion core for a map I am making. Here are some pics what do you guys think. Also it looks better when I am playing the game for some reason my screen capture sucks.

Here is my Covi Coil I got it to blow up and it has a nice blue/purple explosion.

Was it supposed to look like the H3 plasma battery?

That doesn't look very covenant tbh. If anything, it looks like Forerunner that's purple.

Still looks pretty neat, nice job. (it dosent look covy though, more forerunner)

Yeah covi/forerunner all the same LOL. I just came up with the idea when I was modeling a map I designed and I thought I would posted pics see if anyone liked the idea. I probly will post tags on halomaps.org later.

you should hold out, you might get some good tips

If you want to make it covenanty, make it more round instead of sharp edges. Also, whatever shader you're using is making it seem stony.

Yeah I will edited it some more tomorrow. The shader looks perfect in game. When I print screened it it got grainy and thats why it looks stony, Other wise it looks like metal.

Man, you beat me to it. I had this idea ages ago and even did the explosion but (no surprise) didn't take it public. Good work though, better than mine. At least it has a different model (I just recycled the Fusion Core model :P). Although, I think it would be cool if the glass were transparent and you could see a glow coming from the center, signifying a kind of radioactive substance? That's how I envisioned mine.

If you're going to stay with that model, I'd change the purple to blue (and make the glass transparent). That could then easily pass as a Forerunner fusion core. If you still want to keep a covenant theme, make the model much more rounded.
