Well since i got such a rash of _______ from previous vehicle post. I decided to do a unmade vehicle. This is Sparrow Hawk. Can be viewed at http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Sparrowhawk
This is 2 days into it.......and yes i know i have refining to do, this is the base model...

Well, its a nice model I would say, but I wouldnt say that its the sparrow hawk, not exactly there, but its not a bad model, I wudnt call it the sparrow hawk though, too many inaccuracies, Id say its loosely based off of it.
Looks nice I guess.
well yah, like i said:
I have a lot of refinements to do and will post more as i go along. Its only at WIP stage.Quote:

I realize that, my main critique tho is if you really want the end model to look like the pictures of the real sparrow, the easiest way would be to remodel (or plane model) a couple parts of what you have rather than trying to edit them, for instance the cockpit isn't rounded enough, overall just not smooth enough too many hard edges with what you have right now, thats not to say I don't like it, it could turn out nice. Keep working on it.
Hmm... It looks pretty good, for a base model, but you need to make the fans on the wings bigger, and Gatling guns on the side instead of missiles.
Oh hey, that looks kinda cool. Afew suggestions :
-The fans should be bigger
-The cockput and overall model should be wider - it may be perspective difference between your render and the Ensemble pic, but theirs seems to be a bit wider.
-Longer wings. This goes along with a wider body - Ensemble has them seem a bit longer than what you have.
It seems to be off to a relatively nice start though.
great model
thats going to need some deal of editing to make it more like the sparrow hawk, but other than that that thing you have so far is hawt.
Oh hey!
Wireframe please?
I don't think that shroud around the fan needs to be so high poly.
if you want it to look good then yes it does :-D
not too bad for a start. are u using this image for reference?

I would suggest using a custom animated shader for the prop blades. It will save you some poly's in the end.
don't listen to this guy ^Quote:

Tbh. I can't write out an in-depth explanation right now, but you can use a ~blur permutation in the model once it is done. This is used both on the Warthog and Scorpion to make their wheels/treads switch to blurred bitmaps when moving - you could use the same system to switch shaders (or even geometry if you want to have say, stationary be fully modeled-on and moving a single plane with a shader) when the fans are in action.Quote:

and what the FUCK at those fans.
I don't know if this will be useful or not, but in my line of work two different perspectives are better than one. Below is a picture of a quick Sparrowhawk model I began working on right after the Sparrowhawk was revealed for Halowars. I am not going to finish it. If you want the model for an extra reference on scaling, you are welcome to it. Just contact me via PM and I will email it to you. By saying this, I am not stating that my model is better. You model looks out of proportion in some ways (as I am sure mine does as well). Perhaps having an extra vantage point might help it get better.
Anyways, if you are interested let me know. Otherwise keep it up.

He didn't "rip" those interiors from anywhere he made them himself:fuckoff:Quote:

I know this person personaly and i know full well he made those interiors himself.
