FFIX Hilda Garde III

Pioldes

Hey!

I haven't been making personal 3D stuff at all since forever and I wanted to warm up my general high poly modeling. I don't have a lot of opportunities at work to practice that and I don't wanna lose it. :poly142:

I chose to play around with a rendition of Final Fantasy IX's Hilda Garde III. I'm still unsure where I want to bring this, but I'm definitely going to keep going at it regularly.

Concept:



Progress:







Feel free to criticize and comment! Having a bit of a hard time wrapping my head around some of the parts of the model, as all the references of the ship are very low res and inconsistent. Any ideas how to connect some areas and deal with problems are more that welcome

Colored it a bit in Marmoset for readability.

Honestly, besides the texture work, there are a few tweaks you could do, but they're minor. The engines are a bit off ( shape wise)they could be stretch a bit further. Check this ref i found in a side view.
For the rest the texture should do the work.

Good job dude, and for one of my favourite games

Some progress, chipping away at it slowly.

The back is a messy mess.

This is awesome! What's the poly on this?

Tejay

Awesome, can't wait to see this progress!

Looks awesome!

OMG! I love the idea so so much.... The 3D model is really clean. I am really bad when it's come to machine break down. I don't even know how to connect each part of the machine. Can't wait to see the finish of the model
