imperial guard sentinal.

markus-omega

hey everybody.

i've been working on stuff for a game i'm planning to make. but decided to take a brake from that for now.

i love the way the imperial guard sentinals look so i decided to make one.
let me know what you think

doeseph

Nice legs

markus-omega

thanks. i'm glad you like them.

here is a small update

markus-omega

another update

Sauron

any chance to see a reference?

markus-omega

sure thing. i'm using an acutal model as a reference but here is a picture of one.

A-N-P

Nice work. I like where this is going, looking forward to seeing the finished thing. Maybe some wires too?

Wahlgren

Looking forward to the result. Looks good so far. Got one laying around myself that i was working on. Had alot of problems with some areas.

markus-omega

A-N-P: thanks man. here is a wire. its pretty messy still



Notorious P.I.G: thanks i'm glad you like it. yeah i've had some problems as well. they got alot of angels on them.

Asteric

When i look at the reference, the top section looks a bit thick.

markus-omega

Asteric: yeah your right. i didnt see it. thanks man

markus-omega

a small update. i thinned out the top part quiet a bit

Sauron

well, nice! keep up going.

doeseph

Hmm, it looks a little unbalanced right now. The cockpit seems to be too far forward for the legs to keep it supported properly. The sentinel is supposed to be the Imperial Guards fast attack vehicle remember. Something to keep in mind!

markus-omega

Sauron: thanks man i'm glad you like it

doeseph: i've adjusted the cockpit alot again. i made it a little shallower and pushed it back a quite a bit. it seems to be a bit more ballanced right now. although i still need to change the position of the legs.

Steve Schulze

There's still nothing stopping it from falling flat on its face. It may actually be a flaw in the design of the original model. It's a bit hard to tell from the angle it's shot from.

markus-omega

Jackablade: it pretty much is cause i cant push it back any further
i dont think there really made for standing still anyways. :P
i'll post a side pic of the real model later today.

Asteric

Just googled some images, not sure if they are all correct as ai am not a warhammer player.

markus-omega

thanks man. i needed some more references of the weapons .

here is a small up date. i'm playing around with the ballance some more and i think i'm getting closer.

Sauron

are you going to model a pilot?

markus-omega

Sauron: i will once i finish the sentinal.

Michael Knubben

If you want to show off your model, make sure you don't hide the shape. Your gi-renders do just that, they need some specular!

markus-omega

MightyPea: thanks for the advice. i'll have to start playing around with the lighting some more. for now i'm just using one skylight :P.


here's an update. it isnt much. i havnt had much time to work on it. (stupid school :P)

r_fletch_r

looks good, you should post some wires.

1 shadow casting omni and low gloss hi spec material would make your render much much clearer.

markus-omega

here are some wires.

markus-omega

here is an update. i finished the outside except for some small details like rivets.
and am almost done with the interior.
