[WIP] Warhammer 40K Chimera

Boz

Alright,

Here are some shots of the Chimera that I am currently working on. So far I have completed the high res model.

Next up is the low poly model.

MoP

Looks pretty cool, you got any renders with nice lighting without the wireframe on it?

Wireframes are good 'n' all, but proper renders would probably be a good way to present it as well.

Also, welcome to Polycount!

Drakage

Great work, cant wait to see the low poly of this monster!

polygonfreak

Have you planned out how you are going to bake this bad boy?

Boz

MoP - Thanks! Renders will follow when they're done. Although it's a nice way to present your high poly work I don't want to spend too much time on that phase. A good low poly translation is my primary goal.

Drakage - Thanks! Should be starting the low poly today

polygonfreak - I've got a good idea how I'm going to do it. It's built in such a way that I can separate parts very easily when it comes to baking.

Boz

Here are some renders of the high poly model. I'm almost done with the low poly model as well!







Thanks!
Boz

I love this 40K stuff! One thing I could suggest, but I don't know if you want to take it in that direction, is to put some battle damage onto it. Maybe the odd shell-hole here or torn plating there. Maybe take a look at some pics of 'real' tanks and see if you can adapt some details.

Very nice.


What does the interior look like ;D

Jenn0_Bing

That sure is nice. Love your render set-up.

doeseph

Looks nice so far. I have a quick question regarding the Lasgun ball turrets on the side: did you eyeball align that on an angle against the tank or is do you use another technique? I'm pretty addicted to the grid and sometimes things get a little messy with rotation and such, so I'm just curious.

Boz

Thanks for the comments!

Tea Monster - I'm not planning to add any damage to this currently. The texture will not be entirely clean but the model itself won't be damaged.

whats_true - The interior looks amazing! I won't be showing it unfortunately, so you'll just have to imagine what it looks like

doeseph - By eye, up real close though, so it is still pretty accurate

Hboybowen - I'm not planning to do any more renders at the moment. I may render a few more angles when it's all complete.

Thanks,
Boz
