The random model thread!

yea teh stacking is silly cause well. the big one is the one i made. the rest of the rocks are scaled down versions of the same rockk

lol

my fail

i was kind of bored tonight because noone wanted to play dod:S with me. so i decided it would be nice making another tutorial. this one on modeling basics. move rotate and scale tools wont be discussed because they are kind of too low level. instead the focus will be on maya related modeling features. like derformers, working with pivot, booleans, snapping and some general workflow tipps that should be paid attention to before texturing.

the model i make is a WW2 radar station called FuMG 401 a

here is a wip shot.

your reference has 3 "legs" while the model has 4 of them.

cool stuff none the less

there are several variations of this thing. i got blueprints (with 4 legs) and i used them for the model. though nobody would notice ingame. "oh look it is a fumg 401 a but it only has 3 legs like the fumg 401 b"

But it looks better with 3 legs... more hardcore

rofl !

the smartest would be to delete the fourth leg and rotate the others a bit. this would safe polies and the model would still look as good.

like 5500 polies finished modeling so i could start writing the text to my screens (i made like 130 screenshots (( that will be lots of work)

GO GO HESSI GO!!

Nice Freya.

finished uv map and started texturing. applied an ambient occlusion layer with 1 unit fall off.
