Quake2 Firebrand gargoyle

CheapAlert

712 triangles, has full vwep support, 256x256x8 skin (with bad uvws and wasted space), and a couple unintentional uv errors i'm about to fix right now (such as the right top abs), once I fix that i'll show some real shots and maybe release an sdk.

yay for q2 modeling \o/

The wings are could use some work, but as a q2 player model, I understand you need them small and simple, so they are ok. Arms from the shoulders down are small and skinny, add more smooth definition in the upper thigh texture.

Overall, with your knowledge of quake 2, and getting the character look right in quake 2 is a fantastic achievement (not to mention you did all this and animated in two days). This may be one of your best works, cheap, and low-end/portable game art is likely your niche.

suprise suprise!

I think Quake 2 actually looks better in software mode.

CheapAlert

Yep and that's why I use it

It's opengl renderer is shitty and has a real bad "gamma" algorithm that washes everything out and doesn't really brighten the screen, hence I avoid using it to represent my q2 work

btw, fixed the little uv bug

CheapAlert

aight guys, if you like to struggle with a wasted space UV of a low poly monster then this is for you!

SEE I FINALLY GOT A SHOT OF THE WORKING VWEP SUPPORT i'M SO PROUD.

all that needs tweaking now are the animations (just the run , crouchwalk and the deaths)

I quite like this goyle ,, perhaps you could up the skin with a battle damaged version or some form or additional clothing... unless your just staying close to a ref?.

when your done are you going to release the md2 for q2 and the rest of the stuff??

peace gluck

yeah, the animation is a little embarrassing at it's current state, though if you want a WIP (Desperately),
