So, some people have said HRCEMT and FRMT were unoriginal, focused purley on ripping. I proved them wrong by stating our intentions, then said I would release some of my ideas of custom content. This is me, delivering the goods.

Police:


Marine with salvaged sanheli armour and Kig-Yar shield gauntlets:



UNSC Interceptor (based on Banshee design):



'Beam hog' - Custom warthog, with salvaged sentinel beam technology as a turret. The turret is mechanical, controlled from the passenger seat. The turret is protected by kig-yar shields:



UNSC Double - barrelled shotgun:



Mark VI SPARTAN infiltration helmet:



Hunter - class ghost:



UNSC Cheetah (based on ghost design):



Lancer rifle:



Custom assault rifle, with scope and strap:



AA turret concept - a scorpion turret in a trench, accessable through and underground tunnel, and controlled by an underground panel. Controller can only be killed directly:



Mass troop assault vehicle. 4 snipers, 2 heavy weapon marines, one chaingun, one driver:



UNSC Electron cannon - A triple - barrel cannon using salvaged covenant tech. Fires rapid bursts of overcharged plasma bolts:





So, what'cha think?

Are you ever gonna model any of this?

I plan to model some of it, especially the interceptor. I want a pubic opinion on what's crap first.

Police: Yup. Halo needs moar cops. Looks like a good idea.
Marine w/ Salvaged Armor: Sangheili armor probably wouldn't fit a human right. But maybe the shield gauntlets.
UNSC Interceptor: A bit redundant, considering the UNSC Hornet is already in service. But maybe you could create a UNSC-modified Banshee. Plates welded onto the cowlings, a chaingun crudely affixed to the underside, etc.
Beam Hog: I dunno. It just doesn't seem very useful.
Double-Barrel Shotgun: Yes.
Mark VI SPARTAN infiltration helmet: The Force seems strong with this one....
Hunter-Class Ghost: Maybe. Looks kinda cool, methinks.
UNSC Cheetah: The Mongoose is already the UNSC counterpart to the Ghost. And this one looks like a go-kart assembled by overeager Halo fanboys. >:P
Lancer Rifle: Looks like an MA5K with a bayonet.
Custom Assault Rifle: I don't think the strap would be able to move like it should.
AA Turret: Would be very useful.
Troop Assault Vehicle: CTF FTW!
UNSC Electron Cannon: Looks odd..... maybe just have UNSC-modified Plasma Pistols that fire a burst of three overcharges?

I looked into it and sangheli armour makes the marine seem pregnant XD. It's waay too big.

UNSC Interceptor was just another idea as an addition to the air force, and I think beam hog would be quite useful against flood. The custom helmet was based on clone trooper/mandalorian armour (star wars nerd FTW), UNSC Cheetah really does seem like a piece of rubbish to me and was drawn for fun, lancer was originally meant to be a rapid fire noscope BR, but I don't draw very well and I added a bayonet, I think I'll forget the strap, it was just there to look cool. (Maybe for backpack/cutscenes only), AA turret was inspired by one of the books and I really like it, Troop Assault vehicle is effectively an enlarged scorpion without the turret, and I think it would be a good replacement for an elephant, and the Electon Cannon will be made as purely AI controlled. Like a sentry turret. It's a way of stopping vehicles/heavily shielded enemies when they attack in hordes.

Man, drawings are not crisp but get point across, I suppose. If lacking model skills be happy to help, some but of drawings are lack of thought; police is marine helmet with visor, needs more creative.

That's all it was meant to be, a spec ops marine. I thought it looked like a policeman, so I named it a 'Police' instead. I will develop. These were just rough drawings to get my point across, not works of art.

bad drawings are bad. they lack detail and depth. Nice boba fett recon helmet. <-- unoriginal.

The drawings aren't meant to be good. They're meant to show my ideas in basic detail. I put all of these together in literally like 5 minutes. You obviously have little knowledge, as the helmet is clearly not a hybrid of mandalorian and recon helmets.

In actual fact, the helmet is a mix of Mark V SPARTAN armour, a Star Wars: Episode 3 Clone trooper, a Star Wars: Episode 3 Airborne Trooper, Captain Rex from Star Wars: The Clone Wars and a little design inspired by Cybermen from Doctor Who on top. You'll notice I didn't mention Boba Fett OR Recon. EPIC FAIL on your part, I'm afraid. I'm happy to be a scifi junkie. Besides, you say there is lack of detail, yet you fail to see the details even in rough work. How can you use more detailed drawings if you fail to interpret even rough drawings, then criticize your failed interpretations? Please leave this thread if you continue to be so narrow-minded. Meditate. Use the force, you must.

One more sarky/negative comment without signs of actual contribution and I will PM a complaint to Dennis, and see to it that you get banned from posting on this thread at the very least.

Clone trooper helmets were inspired by Mandalorian helmets. Such as those worn by Jango Fett.

Dun feed teh troll.

I am a Star Wars nerd. I know.

So are you saying that because 2 orginates from 1, 1+2 = 2?

When things link to one another, they are not the same. They are simply similar.

I dun get paid to math. >:O

--------

I think you should take the stock and the flashlight off of the double barrel shotgun. Make it sorta like a cut-down break-action shotgun.

A sawed-off double-barrel shotgun. I like it. :-D

Would this be considered military enough or could it be a customized insurgence weapon?

Generally, when designing a troop transport, it's a good idea to make the troops being transported not completely out in the open. Also I don't see what good 4 snipers will do on a vehicle. It's nearly impossible to aim while moving on a vehicle, especially if there is a battle raging around you. Also, the chaingun operator is going to be a sitting duck.

E: also, the scorpion turret is probably the last thing anyone would choose for an AA turret. It fires once every 4 seconds. Generally AA batteries are fast firing, (ie, the ZPU 4 cyclic rate of fire is 2400 RPM, compared to the scorpion which is 15 RPM).

It's just a concept, I was thinking of adding more cover. While this is a troop transport, I was thinking of it more as a portable base. It would park, and while setting up, the snipers would hold off any hostiles. Think of it as a prototype Elephant. I might even add a little switch which ejects a mongoose or something as a geteaway vehicle if that's possible.

Sounds like a good insurgent weapon, but I'm sure a few Marines couldn't carry them out of personal preference.



Maybe he's going to give it some kind of specialized anti-air round. Like a flak cannon or something. You can always change the reload time and rate of fire in Guerilla to make it better-suited for downing enemy fighters.

Yes but it still looks like a tank gun. If you were going to make an AA battery, the Warthog chain gun would be more fitting than the tank gun.

The Warthog chaingun is a Light Anti-Aircraft Gun. I'm guessing he needs something a bit heavier if he's decided to use a Scorpion turret.

Modify anti aircraft scorpion turret to look like turret of

In reply to UnevenElefant5, the Scorpion has a chaingun anyway. It's just a matter of improving the accuracy.

In reply to Alberto, I may.

But you can barely see it under the massive cannon.

So? Aesthetics aren't the point. It's a different tactic, a different way of gameplay. To me, new looks mean nothing. New ways of doing things do.

kinda hard to see the lines but it could've used a bit more thinking, could've looked more original (referring to the 2 assault rifles) but the vehicles are ok, I can't really see the mass assault troop thingy but it sounds nice.

You know what would be an even bigger breakthrough?
Modifying vehicles to have two gunner seats.

Very true, but people more skilled and experienced than me have already tried and failed at that.

P.S Here is my first failed abomination made using the worst modelling program known to man, simply because I felt like it. And because my 3ds isn't working again.



This s*** is so lowpoly that it could probably do fine in an arcade game...
I didn't bother with detail or smoothing. Or proper textures.
Edited by Petera275 on Mar 21, 2011 at 01:45 PM

I see notes bleeding through the image.

Also. This will never happen. But if it does I'll animate it.

You can have 2 gunner seats (ie longsword), but only one person can actually control the gun.

Could we have a side view?

I like the fact that you guys are really drawing out a bunch of your ideas, but are you actually going to model them? I really hope you do because this is some good stuff, the only con I see is your drawing skills. Learn to take some time to really get into some detail, that way when you start modeling you know what to go for. I suggest you practice your perspective a bit and add some more detail. Here's a little example of what I did today during class (No worries, I got all my work done first).

It's obviously a FP view of the energy sword origins, but I used my own hand as a ref, even though I was wearing gloves at the time :)

I think I may draw you guys some custom concepts if you don't mind, I just need to find the time.


ONLY if you guys really plan on doing all this stuff.

what in the christ is going on in those drawings? no, really. what the christ.

I hope you're not planning on being taken seriously.

Yes, I am. I even described the drawings, so you obviously can't read. I am already being taken seriously. If anything, trolling on the internet is pathetic. I'll bet you'd be too scared in real life 'cos you'd get beaten to a pulp. Either that or you're a wannabe tough guy. Either way, it sends negative feelings towards you. As a consequence, nobody takes YOU seriously.

Please, if you say something negative, say how to improve or I'll assume you can't do any better.

As a FTW to everyone, of course I can draw better, and will provide side views etc. These were rushed together in literally less than 5 minutes. All of them. With no reference or attention to detail.

1. Wrong, somebody does take him(Whoever was trolling) seriously, or else you wouldn't be complaining about it and saying that he'd be beaten to a pulp.

2. Yes I agree. People should say how to improve rather than just trolling, but you shouldn't get so angry about it.

3. If you can draw better, then please post your better drawings first, rather than posting the pictures you've already posted in this thread. At least label them, I can use my imagination, but it's not easy to read people's minds.

I can help with the drawings to.
This is only to be used as an example, so please do not model, steal, or claim it as your own:http://ronjah-sarran.deviantart.com/#/d34zmff
And yes, I know it looks haloish that's the point. I still have modify it a bit more, its just a concept. If you can't see the picture just click the link below.

You may be hearing from Dennis soon. I may have just sent him an enlightening PM.

Two people are closing in on a ban. Return tot he topic and stop the flaming: HRCEMT Custom Content
