General Vivi Posted September 6, 2005 Report Posted September 6, 2005 these are like my 7th and 8th model i have ever made. Im starting to get better. I just need to be able to make them faster. the tv took me like 6 hours becuase in my mind all i knew was i wanted a tv i didn't know what kind or anyting , so when i started modeling it i only had a refrence pic of the front so i had do design the rest while modeling. the vcr was the same, i didn't even remember to uv the back until i was done with the model .................. so needless to say that model is only going to be showed from the front in any of my maps -----------------comments-------------------- Quote
Mazy Posted September 6, 2005 Report Posted September 6, 2005 I think your bevels and extrusions into it are waaaaay too extreme. Its okay for the opening for tapes n stuff, but for side panels for plugs it looks kinda stupid. Make them go in less Id say. Apart from that it looks pretty good Quote
von*ferret Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 try not to render your images with a stroke around the file. Makes it hard on my eyes to actualy guage some of the things. Can you post the texture flats and the wireframe/polycount? I agree with mazzle, otherwise very solid content. Nice job Quote
Kedhrin Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 yeah i agree with mazy said, look at some tv's, even security monitors like you are saying, the screens don't go in that deep - so i'd make them not as sunk in as well. Quote

patriot Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 Nice scene except for the text/font on the tapes, who would write the simple "Security Monitor Tape" with Comic Sans when there whould be 20 new tapes each day. Quote
General Vivi Posted September 7, 2005 Author Report Posted September 7, 2005 rofl yeah um that was a throw in . but thanks for making me feel bad for putting it in Quote
Skjalg Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 rofl yeah um that was a throw in . but thanks for making me feel bad for putting it in haha Looks good, but would've been better if you just had "thrown in" those few in the shelf (cant really read em you know;)) Quote
D3ads Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 I think they look great and fit in with everything else perfectly. Quote
rockdude86 Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 give the tapes barcodes with some numbers etc... I know how they look like.....REALLY i have been putting stickers on them ALL DAY! Quote
General Vivi Posted September 7, 2005 Author Report Posted September 7, 2005 give the tapes barcodes with some numbers etc... I know how they look like.....REALLY i have been putting stickers on them ALL DAY! i feel your pain...................... (CRYS) Quote
patriot Posted September 7, 2005 Report Posted September 7, 2005 rofl yeah um that was a throw in . but thanks for making me feel bad for putting it in bwaha Do the barcode thingy and I'm pretty sure you can save up alot of polies on the VCR, minibevels and the straight edges have excess polies.

Kedhrin Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 the only thing i have to say about the setup in that room is the way the book cases are setup, don't you think it's a bit odd to have them facing the back of the bookcase? if you are trying to make a type of enclosure around them, I'd maybe try verticle bars, not an X but yeah, change those tape names Quote
ginsengavenger Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 the size of the tape-bay looks like it's meant for VHS tapes but it says DVD on it? Quote
von*ferret Posted September 8, 2005 Report Posted September 8, 2005 how big are those texture maps Quote
