I know about some parts but basically this is my first serious attempt at modeling a level.

It's going to be a 4 section map, each section roughly 2x the size of that.

There will be 3 rooms, a side room and the room above you see basically mirrored to the other side. The two rooms will be divided by up-and down bars small enough for bullets to get through but not people. The dividing bars will stop eventually and then an open top for grenades to get through.

The third room will be the way you get to the other side in CTF levels.

I know it has errors and all but it's still a WIP not quite in need of it's own thread. I'm mainly looking for things which I could add to this idea.

So how much did you pay for max?

Front better?

I think so. Still missing something though.

Sorry about that, I couldn't tell if it was to steep or not from the render.

Yeah, just cant put my finger on what it is though. Maybe Ill throw some human barricades on the top or something.

Only the two rounded areas look salvageable. Honestly, the rest looks just bad.

Thanks for the friendly crit/advice. I appreciate it.

Why are you thanking me, I didn't offer any crit.

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm my friend.

http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hains1/gun.jpg

That gun would be pretty awkward to hold the way the thumb would be. Plus the stock is so curved as to be uncomfortable upon firing, and not tall enough either. There is no point to the muzzle brake holes just in front of the grip. That would deprive the bullet of critical propulsion. The trigger guard is too small for the finger to be inside it without touching the trigger. Should be room for at least two finger widths in front of the trigger. This gun has a front sight, but no rear sight, and the lack of a rail on top indicates that the scope mount is a permanent fixture. Thus there is no use for a front sight.

Furthermore, this gun has no bolt.

As far as the art quality is concerned, you've got texture there, but it's fairly fuzzy, and the shading on the scope gives no indication of roundness. That and there are a few unnecessary brush strokes that don't define much of anything, such as the two on the lower part of the rear grip.

Overall, it's a bit of a mess. At least it looks like a gun and the painting is decent-ish.

+2 for effort.

Actually the one thing I disagree with are the sights. I've seen a few people mount scopes and leave the front sights on out of sheer laziness.

Was a speed painting, was not meant to be accurate, and I painted it off of my daisy bb gun, was very bored.

Stuck a bunch of shit together for shits and giggles, result Anti Orbital tank.





2 Gauss, 4 light guass, 4 ppc's, 4 Large lasers and 8 RAC-5

land battleship ahoy

Looks like a bird with wheels for feet and guns for ears.

Your high....

Now I'm low and it still looks the same.

Well shit....



Quick look over there! ---->

Something I'm working on for a bio assignment...

Amazingly done. Better than in my Bio book.

Things I can still name in that picture from my Freshman bio class:

Ribosomes
RNA
Nucleus
Cell membrane
Golgi apparatus
Vacuole
and nothing else :|

I think I see a mitochondria or w/e hell the red thing is.

isnt that the orange one

There's no vacuoles there exam, just some lysosomes and vesicles. Vacuoles are larger, and in a plant cell, very large. The mitochondrion is the orange one, the red/pink is the golgi.

Well I went home for the weekend and happened to come across on my computer, an old model I was working on for shits and giggles.

http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/7645/partswipcx3.jpg

All that's really missing is the magazine and a few internal parts, so when I get a chance I'll probably finish up and release it. It's only like 4,000 tris so it's quite capable of going in game.

Then all the CS players who need to compensate for something can use it and think it's actually a good combat pistol http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-laugh.gif

MWLL CL_Puma, the captains wheel has been removed since it was ugly. Not my model/ texture.

The wasp and the jungle versions are pretty cool.

Christ... Puma... *comes*... Props to whoever did do it. I loved the Mech3 incarnation of it, and the Mech3 skins bring me back... makes me want to start playing it again.

The skin(s) look(s) a bit dull though - could use more contrast... or saturation... but that's just me, and some metallic shine would mask that anyhow.

Front and sides are still being worked on, so don't be hatin on them :saddowns:

Looks like a combination of Star Trek and Forerunner. Cool.

Selentic, that back part seems to be bugging me, with the forerunner outlining on it.

Looks nice, going to be a main base? Or telebase?

Texture entry for Speed Texturing Competition over at Game Artists
took me 90 Minutes to paint



Maps:

texture is good. but the model seems to thin

Hawt.

Well shit, I'm gunna steal that for ma biology revision.

Two point perspective project.
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/e...1013082016.jpg
My art class is a bunch of whiners. "This is soooooo haaaaaard i hate perspectiiiiiiive!"
So I pick the most complicated object in the classroom just to piss them off :v:

Nice, I'm doing two point but in terms of architectural drawings aka, insides of a studio/workshop space that we had to create and design. Good job, looks really good.

e: lol cant rep u .....

Oh you rebel, you. Perspective is easy (then again, I've done a fuckton of life drawing and it's pretty much all I work with, doing photography and all), extreme perspectives however can be a bit confusing, but still doable.

Show them up next time and do some 3-point perspective. They'll be all like "wtf you can't do that" and you'll be all like "bitch yes I can just watch me".
Nice computer cabinet by the way.

Too grainy on the butt to me.

E: fuck anyone with innuendo.

In your endo.

Seems a bit washed out. Darken it and give it more contrast, see how it looks then.

Thanks, rossmum, something like this? I like it more.

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/6505/cadarjl2.jpg

Looks like you abused sponge.
Lower the contrast and add some highlights and scratches.

Alright, first of all even out the lighting. Splotches everywhere, they really don't look good on weapons. Second, don't just up the contrast and do nothing else - by adding contrast, I mean add some proper lighting as well.

You really should have a look at Dane's one of this.

too cloudy.

H3 Cortana biped...
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...Corntana-1.jpg
I already know about the bad smoothing. It took 30 minutes to render this and it's 5AM.

Oh, and I think her ass is too big, so I might make it smaller.

EDIT: 7,287 polygons. I'll get a tri count later.

Yeah, make her ass smaller. I don't like big asses ;)

hair looks fuxed, and maybe to short

Meh... low poly asian looking purple h1 Cortana ftw.

Fanservice Cortana ftl.

I always thought she looked best in H1

vOv

I liked the H1 version, but the model for it was :(. I particularly like the blue-ish color that she has in H3 though.

Yeah. Its alot harder to see her in h3 with all the funky effects on her tho.

I always liked the halo 2 cortana with the longer hair and more slender figure. In halo 3 she wasn't very proportionate. Her boobs were massive to say the least.

You already have your own thread for this, so there's really no need for it to be posted here...

h1 cortana IS best.

@ the one here, Her hair is fucked up, and her nose is big atm.

And the "her boobs getting bigger" conspiracy? Software updates to make her easier to pay attention to.

Camel toe!

H3 cortana was the best designed imo. HDoan, don't try to call out something you don't know what it is. :facepalm:

h2 and h1 cortana I can't decide between. h3 is fail

What's wrong with her hair exactly? Oh, and you're right about the nose. Just a bit too big.

Looks pretty smooth to me.

Also, I think he modeled the hair so it could be textured properly. If I'm right then when the model is finished the hair wont appear to be in that shape.

Ignore him, he doesn't know what it is most likely.

Duh

http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...Corntana-3.jpg
I think I'm pretty much done, minus a few smoothing errors. I'm pretty proud of her. :)

She could use bigger boobs.

Yeah, they need to dangle be bigger.

two point is hard? they should try three point. Even then, you can ramp it up to some four point+ perspectives to get some really warped visual spaces.

I've done 3 point but how does 4 point work? Got any examples maybes? :D

http://www.clowder.net/hop/persp/Eschpers.jpg

What is up with her ankles? It looks as if her foot is directly attached to her shin. Armpits, it's as if you've extruded them inwards, sharp outlines.. makes no sense. Hair - looks as if it's just been placed on top of her head, not growing out of it.

Holy cow, you know, for some reason it never occurred to me that fisheye perspective like that formed hyperbolic arcs like that. That's worth knowing.

Maybe render her from different angles? something about her lips bothers me, but I can't tell from this angle.

Legs need serious optimizing still.

The top cannon's barrel is inaccurate.

Made a quick low poly ODST helmet. Nicely UVed.

i don't think you wasted enough polies on the legs, hunter.

E: Dee the symmetry on that uv is gonna look like shit with a texture. redo it.

Anyone can uv map and scale them big enough to look like there's no distortion. Post your uv layout, then we'll talk.

Is that some sort of pokemon mewtew + halo elite?

It'd look sick with the elite looking towards the shot TBH, it looks good so far though. Make sure you clean it up after doing the colouring.

Reminds me of the mass production Evangelion's:

http://www.tuttibalocchi.it/catalog/images/04370024.jpg

Its just a quick sketch, the actual concept will be facing at a diagonal angle to get both side and front details and will be painted.

THOSE THINGS WERE BADASS.

EDIT: Most impressive on the scarab hunter.

Nice looking Scarab Hunter. It's too bad I have no respect for the Halo 3 scarab at all because of how fucking weak it was.
Direct main cannon hit can't kill my warthog on Legendary? pfft.
