I'd say scrap those flats and start again, there's just no apparent color scheme or direction here, look at some refs and I'm sure the next round will work out better
As for the texture, needs some lighting information. Your UV coordinates are all over the place unfortunately, there are a lot of seams and stretched areas. I'd try unwrapping it again, practice makes perfect and we all gotta start somewhere. If your finding yourself confused with the process of Unwrapping a 3D object into 2D space, google search for some "UW Unwrapping" tutorials.
Thanks, I will look at some unwrapping tuts.
broad shapes! you need to separate the broad shapes!
work with value and color. make the base darker and the top brighter, so there's a very general value gradient accross the whole object.
take the entire tread section and separate it somehow. make it darker. i dont know. separate the barrel.
simplify everything. remove that noise texture that you've got on it for now. highlight some of the edges to make it more like metal. add a normal map to push out the pannels. work with your shaders to get this looking like steel. add a specular map!
add some metal scrapes where the turret rotates. add some grunge and dirt, oil stails, bullet marks, scrapes where the tank ran through some rubble. don't add stuff everywhere in an eaven coating, pick specific details and be clear. don't be afraid of having big empty areas with no details.
Shaders, this and that, stuff i didnt know. Thanks, I WILL LOOK INTO EVERY ASPECT ABOUT MODELLING, ESCPECIALLY LAST 3 MONTHS AGO, I WAS BANNED FROM HERE. BUT NOW, IM A NEW MAN! GOT MY WISDOM TEETH REMOVE SO I AM A HAPPIER INDIVIDUAL, NOT A ANGRY FRANTIC HORNY MALE NO MORE K? THANKS
-Ironwolf, aka, Deathelm... HI =D
idiot
agree
when i finished making that post, i had this really odd feeling that i was going to get some sort of angry ungrateful response. i don't usually get that feeling, writing stronger crits. weeiirdd.
look dude, you asked for comments, and you got em. that's some damn good feedback i gave you. you should feel lucky to be on polycount and be able to get advice from us. anyway. i know it's hard to take criticism, everyone has trouble with it, so i'm not angry at you or something, but you did respond to me very rudely, and you should be able to see that. i'm not goign to call you an idiot. maybe you should think about what you said.
you know you want good comments, that's why you asked for it, so do yourself a favor and look at how you responded and try and get over yourself. we all make mistakes.
are you going to do try the changes i suggested? you'll find that your tank will get a lot better.
I'm a hopeful sort of guy, really.
Wings3d itself is a pretty good program as well, but I'd agree with Ely and say that something else would suit you better. I personally found Silo 2 to be a wonderful replacement for Wings3d, much more diverse.
Again Thank you everyone 4our being here for me and watching my artowkr.
Thanks Guys and Gurlies too
AND!!! YES I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOUR VIDEOS. TUTORIAL ONES IF YOU CAN POST THEM HERE THANKS AGAIN GREAT PEOPLE!!!!
i think this guy is a bit immature though, but reguardless, whhhaatt ever.
I wish i were a cat.
if you want a real crit say so and I will on the other hand.
Well, that, and I remember being an immature English-illiterate fresh Polycount-member myself. Since I could only get online every weekend, and the idea of a forum still confused and frightened me, I must've posted 'How do U open Pk3 guys?' in about 5 people's separate unrelated threads. I could never find the thread I posted in the week before, so I just asked again, thinking that nobody had had the decency to answer me before.
As an aside, I was learning English off the internet, and I had assumed 'U' was the polite form of 'you'.
Then again, who am I telling, right? You must remember too well what that was like, right John?
These misunderstandings continue to this day, I'm afraid. I'm under the impression 'cockwipe' is an expression of love. It's all love, guys.
Pea- it depends on whos offering ;-)
maybe we are all evil people. everyone and thats just nature
Then why the hell did you make a thread asking for critique? Your english seems fine but it sounds like you enjoy using it as an excuse for your immature rants. I seriously doubt you're the most intellectual fucking bastard I'll ever meet but I will take this chance to call you an idiot, Est-ce que vous comprenez ce que je veux dire?
lets get some thread-lock on this sucker
