very nice skalg. Perhaps lower the spec map if there is one on it to reduce the glossiness of the over all texture. Just a personal preference though, really

Quote from csharp

only one 128x128 map allowed?

Or four 64x64s

Quote from RD

Jesus u guys are so hard. Ppl can do whatever they want with their lifes. Its selfish to make them suffer just so they will be alive.

Anyways the video is funny

Suffering is cancer. Suffering is the pain of losing a child. Suffering is slowly dying of Multiple Sclerosis.

Suffering is not being a fucking teenager and being depressed about highschool or people picking on you for your choice in dress and hair dye.

The bitch that offed herself deserves no pity for the hell she put her friends and family through after she ended her existence.

Here's a vickers machine gun wip[Blocked Image: http://userpages.umbc.edu/~petrone1/temp/vickers1.jpg]

That's awesome! Love the use of polys so far

Nice lighting! I really love how you captured the softness of the light from that window.

Quote from KoKo5oVaR

Actually, we won this war :x

I was just about to say the same thing.

For the record, American "dough boys" were pretty universally loathed by both the Allies and their enemies during that campaign. They saw it as a European war and saw the late entry by the US as so much "vulturing" and posturing.

My head's a'whir with what to do next. I'm thinking possibly a Renault tank.

Quote from generalvivi

postman since you saved so many polys you should go back and add details where you can

Any suggestions on where I could add details? I was thinking about adding the support wires I left out of the initial design and perhaps building out the prop a little more.

Just finished my skin!

Awesome planes you guys. We're going to have a veritable air force going here shortly, heh.

The funeral was for some stupid goth bitch who offed herself. So her nerd friends (especially since she was a girl) hold a funeral for her in WoW. How trite. Three cheers for the guild that ransacked them

ps: alphamaps? yes or no

Anything you want so long as it's a 128x128 map.

If someone does this they will be the king

Quote from KungFuSquirrel

Do we have to wait until May to start?

Nope! You all have until the last week of May to get your entries in.

Quote from von*ferret

maybe it would be better if there was another option for those of us who aren't character modelers.

Quote from Polaris

Perhaps it could be anything at all from WW1?But then again everybody would just do mark IVs :wink:

Good point. WW1 it is! Anything you want. Early tanks, gas masked horses or whatever!

Quote from Fletch

yes

Please tell me you made shirts. I'll snap one up in a heartbeat if you did.

Alright folks. This is a challenge to all you modellers out there. Sure high poly modelling might be the haute couture today but there is a strange kind of sublime creation in low poly construction. Getting the most out of your polys and a low rez texture means ingenuity and creativity.

So I level a challenge! For the month of May the Low Poly Modelling challenge is this:

World War 1 Anything!

Polycount max: 250

Texture size max: 128x128

Get to it Mapcore, let's see what our fine community can come up with!
