Yeah the layout of your polys is a waste, and doesn't look right.

It doesn't have to be. Bungie's models are all one pieces, but are rigged to different nodes.

look at the scope. tell me whats wrong

its way to short

Sniper looks cool. Now just Awesomely texture it!

I would post something, but considering Gmax and 3ds Max trials no longer work all of my work is null and void. xP

lol nice bump.

made by Martynball/[WM]HunterTLS/0Hunter0

just finished it, 2100 tris. criticisms?

looks a little short. also the handle grip at the right should be close to the pole

That looks awesome.

And advancebo, i think it looks short because it is slanted towards us.

yeah most of the proportion issues are just me trying to mash as much of the model into a 1024x768 render

put that in cod 4 NOW

Its off reference. The hammer is longer then that. and some of the scaling is messed up on some parts.

didnt we just talk about perspective?

dee, its the way im looking at it

WHY HAS THIS NOT YET BEEN SENT TO ME? I must unwrap and animate it. now.

Like the hammer, but I agree it seems to short.

ok 3rd time now, its the perspective in which im viewing it in. if you want ill make a gif of it rotating so you can see its not too small. ask yourself something, with all the little details in there, wouldn't i make sure the handle, by far the easiest part of the model, is the right length?

ohhhps wrong topic XD

to donut: next time don't be lazy and do a good render with shadows so that it can be seen ;P
and GIF plzz i love em :P

and im basically contradicting my self cozz i don't do shadows and stuff in my renders XD
but thats cozz i am lazy XD

don, he just the kind of guy that dont read what other ppl say and just post replys of the pics they see

oshi my friend you have just opened a bad can of worms. im not being lazy, infact i originally rendered that out just to show arby and icee, but then i decided there might be something wrong, so i posted it here. im actually modeling other stuff right now too, but since you insist, ill go make a good render....
edit: and HERE it is. model was not altered in ANY WAY, just 4 omni lights, a skylight, rendering with catmulrom, default light tracer solution, and a clone of the model with a push modifier of 0.05, and a red material set to wireframe only. if thats lazy, then your an omish

Still out of portion. The handle especially.

all i see is the handle being too long. everything else looks good. if you would, circle the problems and then comment, it would be appreciated
and the head too i think... just needs to be a bit longer

The area between the blade and the main bulge needs more tech. And the bottom disc of the hammer is slightly moved to the front.

like, theres more stuff in between the hammer head and the blade? also i know about the bottom part. i dont like it, its fugly

if u dont no how to post pictures just go to imageshack uplaod the pic. when thats done right click,copy your address bar then come here click the little image of the world and the chain links paste the link in the editble area and post

Donuts hammer with my skin.



Crit plz.

I did it without halo 3 in mind.

thanks. Mind editing the pic to show me the stretching?

oh, yeah im aware of those. I was thinking of changing the unwrap a bit but meh.

imo it would look better if only the very bottom pollys on the round part at bottom were blue ( like the half sphere part ) and it should glow the same as the rest of the blue parts.
And the part that chains pointed out at bottom that material should be applied to the main cylinder where the extruded part meets it.
Other than that i like it :)

That skin looks grouse. XP

Agreed, Donut I gave you my reasons

It wasn't necessary to say that. You already said it over xfire.

The wood looks bad. The metal's fine, but the wood on the grips looks really fake. Also, too much glowing stuff.
