By the gods newbie, could you possibly make them look any worse?

the pelican is really hard to pilot, anyone know how to make it a lot easier like the banshee

Which pelican are you referring to? You might have to say which one before we do anything for you...there are a few pelis around, if you hazen't noticed.

Extinction?


Have you started?
:hopeful:

Not yet, too lazy :L



They ain't... if you make the Pelican fly like a Banshee it will be crap. Pelican is easiest thing to fly ever..

It's the Reach pelican. Now that we have that covered, can I have some crit for this?

Finish the basic shape at least first, easier to give crit then as you should change alot whilst finishing it. And provide a bigger render (move camera closer, too much black around the side) and put on an AA filter so it's not so blurry.

And provide a proper wireframe, getting sick of these see-through ones.

Can do. So just like finish the body then show another render then?

yup, easier

Long time no post, hehe.



It's not done, I haven't been working on it much because my view port is all messed up (it's in like forced Orthographic mode, no matter what I do.), so I keep getting proportions wrong. Hopefully I'll get it finished soon, just figured I'd post it here real quick. Btw, it doesn't have the subdivision modifiers on it currently, dunno why... (looks far better with, and is only like 6k polys) But whatever. Also, I can't decide, should I waste my time and effort and release this when I finish it? I don't want to end up with another disaster like the Mass Driver =\.

Press p, t, l, or b- if you're using 3ds max.

I know how to changed the view, but the proportions are as if they're in Ortho even in perspective. (it's a little better after reinstall.) I'm not sure how bad they are now, as I haven't really looked.

Messing around

Specular map is pretty good looking for around the grooves but the other flat areas look like they had a rockslide fall on it

@Amazingcuziam
Create a new scene.
Export your model as obj/3ds, reset scene and import the model back, fixes almost all issues.

Also, i'm guessing it is a UAV? Well, it's good to make a real life vehicle, but a model like that is hard to judge on if it is done correctly or not. Well in a way, as at the moment it looks okay, but there is not much you can do with it, as the actual vehicle is smooth and doesn't really have any details.

Model something like a blackhawk, or even a jet. It will give you more of a variation of surfaces to create, as both have semi-organic, and hard surface. Can give you more crit on something like that.

Tell me if you know what I mean, I have had a drink, and I talk crap sometimes when drank alcohol lmao.

I'm gonna have to go with eliteslasher on this one. I think it would look much better if you made the wings the same "smoothness" as the main hull, just for consistency. If you were going for a "battle worn" look, then I would put some more dents and dings on the hull as well just to even it out.

This is what it is, just a newer version of mineee (I showed it here a loooong time ago.). It's not done yeet though. Also, I'll try exporting and reimporting and see what happens. Also, also, I might try modeling some real life stuff sometime soon, probably after Christmas though. EDIT: new angle + some turbosmooooth



:), Dunno what's up with teh smoothing, it doesn't wanna work for some reason :(
Edited by Amazingcuziam on Dec 17, 2011 at 02:20 AM

The hull actually looks like the most reinforced part of a ghost. So I'd assume it would be the least dented. The wings on the other hand are far more slimlined and likely weaker, which means that they would look far more "battle-worn".

Just my opinion anyway :)

Awesome,but fix that tail fin.
Edited by Cheddars on Dec 17, 2011 at 06:48 AM

The tail fin is just a placeholder atm, I think I have a version that it looks better in, just need to find it :).

The clay render is bleaching out the curves, could you render it a different way?

This work?

Or would you prefer a whole different rendering engine?

Looks a bit better, can see the curves. It's looking okay, add another edge loop to the back tail edge, as there are lighting errors, the bits sticking up.

There isn't really much to comment on as the model is rather simple isn't it, just metal plates on the textures and stuff. I like the look of the vehicle in that game though, make it look similar :P

wow thats so cool ive radden in one of thos befor! why is it pink r u a fag??! LOL

don't you love trolls AHA!

haha yeah, I lold so hard at his post xD.

how am i troll? atleast I can make half-decent models fag

BWAHAHAHAHA
You really don't actually know who you're talking to do you?

Sorry for backseat modding but umm...

I love how wankbusta's join date was yesterday...

Anyway, nice render, is it going to be scaled with Master Chief in-game? That thing would be quite big...although the game had no problem rendering two longswords having a dogfight :\

It's probably mostly to scale already (most of my modeling is about to scale.), I actually doubt it would be very big, but I haven't decided upon final scale yet :). I'll show a scale render (ie, with MC and a whog) later, when I have teh time.

Not finished, need new collision model and some things :D
Edited by darksoldier on Dec 19, 2011 at 08:30 AM

Looks Awesome! Though for some reason some of the textures just look strange I can't really put my finger on it but all in all it looks great I would love to see this in a map along with your H3 Ghost.

And Wankbusta trolling first day not good u must be a fag
