LPC #01 - FZero - peppi

peppi

Concept:


Progress so far


Some more detailing left to do, mostly in the back. I'm pretty sure I don't want to stay under 1000 tris / 512 textures with this but I'll see how the lowpolying goes. Hoping to have that & the unwrap sorted by Sunday.

you're some kind of monster Peppi

Jesse Moody

holy god that is so bad ass....

Joshua Stubbles

From concept to completion that's all around SEXY
Great work so far, peppi.

Ged

wow I have so much to learn =o

EarthQuake

Cool, you lost some of the cool from the concept tho, the front round bit has a better shape there imo.

Vailias

I love how this is like F-zero meets R-Type. Especially with the exhaust in the concept

Hito

damn this si awsome

peppi

Thanks for the comments all The highpoly is pretty much complete. I haven't really settled on a color scheme yet though I'm slowly growing tired of that lemon/brownish one. I'll see how it looks in an iPod nano / flaagan's ride kind of green with a big red/white/black decal on the back (thinking about a fictional brewery logo or something). As for the windscreen shape, I've been playing around with that front section for a while and found that a wider ship with a slightly bigger nose looks prettier in a way. I guess it's a matter of personal preference.. anyway, progress renders:

Joshua Stubbles

HAWT.
WANT MOAR

stimpack

pretty bad ass! how much of that will transfer down to a 512 texture sheet? seems like u got alota really tiny details that may just turn into sand papery pixel spots.

indian_boy

woah! i need skills like that!

how many polies is this baby? and will u be able to conform ur low poly to this thing?

damn dude.... its pure.... sweetness...!

EarthQuake

If he mirrors a lot he can pull of a decent amount of detail with a 512....

Though, the diffuse might suffer as a result. Maybe lay out the diffuse all unique, but mirror the hell out of a 2nd UV channel for the normal map.

One of my favourite entries so far.
Really looking forward to seeing the lo-poly for this one.

Oh hey there sorry I haven't had much time to work on this since I was putting together a new 'puter last week and otherwise being very busy enjoying a sunny weekend (BBQing, beering, biking, etc). I'm still dragging a few things over from the old PC and I'm hoping to continue this model tomorrow and have the lowpoly+unwrap done by the weekend, along with an update.

As for the specs, well..... as mentioned in my first post, I am probably going to drop out of the challenge by spending more than a thousand polies and a set of 512x512 textures. While I found the subject matter awesome enough to get and keep me going, right now I am really looking for more of a 360/PS3-ish (or higher) spec racer model to add to the folio.

Archanex

just out of curiosity, did you build this exclusively out of polygons? I've been slightly interested in learning about Sub-Ds and Nurbs for a while now... just never done anything with that interest

peppi

Archanex, yes this is just a bunch of subdivided EditPoly objects.

I haven't had much time to work on this lately, but at least the lowpoly is complete. It's at 4399 tris now, oops

MoP

you're such a waster of polys

looks great!

rooster

looks so damn cool!

Sa74n

great stuff

vahl

looks awesome peppi

Joao Sapiro

jesus christ nice man ! great style !

Ged

nice to see you followed it through, its gonna look sweeet when its done ! too bad we both went way over the poly limit hehe

Emil Mujanovic

AWESOME!

-caseyjones

Asmuel

I didn't know this competition was on until I saw your name and decided it must be worth a look. Looks awesome as always man, love it!

peppi

Yay, done. As expected this ended up shooting slightly past the constraints (4399 tris / 5 2048x2048 texture maps / deadline two weeks ago). Max viewport shader courtesy of poopinmymouth.

JordanW

badass

Joao Sapiro

holy hell ! NICE ! what shader btw ?

Sa74n

Really great work buddy. I love the final result. The different colors are ace.

Snowfly

This is the one i was waiting for...!

Nice to see someone going bold with the environment and specular maps for a change. The finals look fantastic.

Pedro Amorim

fuck!
is that the fx file you used from your dom 2 war poop? agusturin or somehing?

IronHawk

Holy Shit! That is badass.

gavku

Awesome work dude...well done.

Yup, the same. Peppi made a zip with the shader and all the maps already made at 16x16 so it would load right away. I'll host it on my site soon, and post a link here.

pior

How cool is that! Curious about that shader also :P

Sa74n

you should post this in P&P. not getting the attention it deserves over here

MoP

bloody great, you mad german

Joshua Stubbles

Very slick, peppi.
It came out fantastic.

rollin

great !!

but why does the dirt doesn´t have some .. "wind-effekt" .. or is this lil glider just standing ;p

Hito

Hotness!
