Olitech Industries Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 Been working on this one in the shadows with my work team at DBM. I’m surprised how little references there are for such an iconic ‘character’ in the shows. Anyway, this is still very much a work in progress as there are a lot more components to go. However, I think it’s ready to show and start the comments and critique from the experts at this forum. The SDF1 is very much a placeholder until I find a suitable one, or get around to building our own. If anyone knows a good one out there, please let me know! Quote

Olitech Industries Posted July 7, 2022 Author Posted July 7, 2022 Most of the generic buildings are kit bashed from the Kitbash collections of vfx assets. Current state before adding trees and population. Quote

Hi There, For now, I will only be giving away the VF-1 complete (including flight sticks, ip, cockpit, etc.). The city model is a collaboration with other artists, plus many Kitbash assets, therefore I cannot distribute it. Maybe specific pieces, but not the whole thing. Quote

By giving away did you mean sharing the actual 3d files? I had to ask because it looks like you put in many hours of work to produce such amazing work! Quote

I want others to do some cool-ass crap with it. The VF model should level the playing field, and let all artists do some magic, no matter what level they are at. Once the protoculture is released, it should reculture this planet. =D This is the way. Quote

Olitech Industries Posted August 16, 2022 Author Posted August 16, 2022 Ok some updates to the City WIP: 1/ Some of the previous buildings were waaaay off scale. Too massive. This has now been fixed. 2/ Added street population - Traffic lights, Hydro wires, Street lights, etc. Quote
Olitech Industries Posted August 16, 2022 Author Posted August 16, 2022 Here are the the current buildings at the right scale. There is still a lot under construction. No bites on the SDF1 - I will just make one myself =] Quote

Bolt Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 Wonderful! Loving it all ! As far as an SDF-1, what are you looking for? Line art? Maybe some models or artwork would be suitable to go off of..? I don't know, just wondering.. Quote
