Walking Dead Dale's Camper

jordan.kocon

I realized my portfolio doesn't have a vehicle, and figured that is a bit of a negative thing. I decided to start this while I finish my current apartment scene. I have decided to create Dale's camper... or something similar, it seems fun and quick to model. I don't feel like sifting through hours of TWD to find reference of the camper, so instead I am focusing on the one cartoon image I found, watching the finale of season 2, and making it my own.

I would say the camper is done, unless anyone can spot anything, minus the vents and such on the roof. My next step is to create the chair, umbrella, cooler, and random props for on top. After that I will be moving onto the low poly.

C&C welcome

Edit: The one thing the highpoly is missing is the 'ribbing' that runs horizontally across the side... I plan to bake that detail onto a plane and overlay it in Photoshop, I didn't forget about it.

Needs zombie blood

Looking nice! Been watching that series lately, love it

Looks clean, I would say you might want to make it look a little more lived in. add some dents and scratches.
IDK maybe not put that stuff in your sculpt but think about it.

Looks good

This looks awesome man, very solid

Darkleopard: Thank, once I am done this thing will be covered from head to toe... er wheel to roof... in blood

Dylan Brady: I was fully planning on bringing it into z brush, then I somehow forgot, I think I was just tired and ended up baking the whole thing. Depending on how the texturing goes, I may bring certain peices into zBrush and rebake.

MGM/SaferDan: Thanks guys

Here it is baked and with base textures on it. There are a few baking issues that I will be fixing, but I am going to start texturing now. The model is currently at 24,000 tri's, but I will be optimizing it once I am done texturing. After this is textured I will move onto the 'mini scene' on the top of it, with Dale's chair and such, and then I will most likely model a basic interior for the front. Now I am going to watch some episodes to get some reference.

C&C welcome as always!

It looks great...but does it smell terrible?

SaferDan

Aww this looks so good man, can I see the texture sheets? I assume you are tiling the sides?

jordan.kocon

Thanks SaferDan, but it's just the base texture, now the real fun starts Here are the texture flats. There isn't any tiling on the sides. I wanted to have the whole side available to texture and really add large scale detail onto (if that makes sense). The window's are duplicated all around, which could cause issues, but for now you can see the sides are there own separate pieces.

Jeff Parrott

Sweet idea! So you're shooting for the show and not the comic version? Either would be awesome. Maybe some where in the middle?

SaferDan

Ahhh I see that's awesome! Thanks man! I await more

I want to, I've slowly like these, happy

to join you.

Very nice job. I think it needs to be dirtied up a bit, right now it could be anyone's camper. You can see the dirt and grime in this pic"

jeffro: Unfotunately I don't have my Walking Dead comics since moving, so I can't reference it. My version is loosely based off the show, and otherwise just making it however I want. So I don't know if that's lazy or artistic :P

SaferDan: I'll try not to disappoint!

cdevens: I am currently dirtying it up

Stormie: SPOILER!

So here is the first pass on texturing. I am feeling very unmotivated on this for some reason. Perhaps I should take a break from it, as I have zero desire to work on it, and am currently trying to force myself to do it.

Also this is diffuse/normal only, no spec:

is the 3d model downloadable???
