wongster Posted February 20, 2006 Author Posted February 20, 2006 (edited) lol thanks thats probably a good idea. When I start to animate I don't think the fighting and transformation will be in all one scene anyway. as for the dats comment well, his stuff is g000d, but as modelers, we all have tons of bad things to say about our own work anyway 0.o.

Rodavan Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Have to agree with Doc , DAT is just being modest. Rigging ....... I suck @ that , so no advice from on that one. Quote
wongster Posted February 21, 2006 Author Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Alright so I'm almost done.. just wings + gun! oh wait I also have to do the cockpit 0.o don't have any references for that... guess i'll have to wing it. now I can start thinking about animating and texturing. Do you guys think I have enough detail or should I put the rest in with UV's? More work in progress... 0.o Torso and nose Edited February 21, 2006 by wongster Quote
Sdf-1 Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Looking nice! Btw, I don't know much about cg stuff, but I've been wondering could the panel lines be done with bump maps, and maybe matching line textures? I tried to play a little with 3dsmax few years ago, just for fun. Nothing more. I think actual model kits are the thing for me. But it's fun to watch other peoples different projects. Edit: You know, you could make the maps straight from hasegawa instructions?!? Edited February 21, 2006 by Sdf-1 Quote
wongster Posted February 21, 2006 Author Posted February 21, 2006 yes, UV's are basically the "paint job" for a model in CG. sometimes details are too bothersome to hard model into a model's geometry, so you use "paint' more or less. You can also use them for bump maps. I was just wondering if anyone wanted to see more detail Quote
Rodavan Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Looking Good There are 2 types of Cockpits --Movie version and TV version --see pictures Quote
wongster Posted February 24, 2006 Author Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) alrighty, some weird abstract thingie... well actually its the view from behind the seat lol, but I messed up with the camera on that one second one is from outside third is sitting in the cockpit... enjoy fourth, zoomed out... this was a test for render times. wings coming next and i'm going to rework the gun... then i'll be done. wahoo! well at least the modelling garr that darn glass just cranked up render times by soooo much. It was faster when the cockpit winshield was solid lol XD. Edited February 24, 2006 by wongster Quote
Sdf-1 Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 I can't wait to see it finished! Heheh, that first pic looks like what happens when you fly on a wall with a Valk at full speed. Quote
Dante74 Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Looks great, but I think you should make the circular thing on the nosecone a little smaller. Quote
wongster Posted February 25, 2006 Author Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) muahhhaah?? well I think its sexy... still needs gun! Edited February 25, 2006 by wongster Quote
Dante74 Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 WOW, very sleek looking! One tiny point of criticism; The air-intakes look a little bulky. Great work, I wish I could do stuff like this. Quote

Sdf-1 Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 (edited) Woohoo!!! Are you going to make some textures now? Edited February 26, 2006 by Sdf-1 Quote

wongster Posted March 1, 2006 Author Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) k guys, I'm working on the UV maps right now. Unfortunately due to drivers ed, piano, kung fu classes, and a large mass of homework, I will be unable to bring you any updates until friday or this weekend. but heres some eye candy for now, its a bit old. If you can't guess what this is a model is of, either I haven't spent enough time on it, or you aren't that into sci fi. Edited March 1, 2006 by wongster Quote
wongster Posted March 4, 2006 Author Posted March 4, 2006 (edited) hey fellas, I finally got around to getting some of this work done... so here we go. So far, no renders yet, but heres the finished UV for the main section of the plane... its only a screenie. Edited March 4, 2006 by wongster Quote
