Why would you tell that!! You have to use references for everything..

This looks great so far, but make sure you texture it well. That'll make or break it.

Rawr, good to see friends setting up camp here aswell

Throw some nosie down on the white areas on the chassis or add some defining features to it, itll make it stand out a little more

i also find it hard to believe anyone could learn how to hard surface model by themselves without a single tut or reference

I have mega-problems when I try to make objects without taking the time to use references. Everyone I've talked to about it on every forum I'm on has made it clear that theirs no reason not to use a reference. I don't mean to talk about myself but to say I know from experience that this advice is really true. Look up images of other "objects" similar to this in someway. You could get an idea from devices that are completely different as well. I personally think what you have here is kinda cool but without using references you won't impress too many people.

Thanks everybody
And Hai Laz

Meh Geuss I Didn Explain Myself Well :P

Woot I meant By References Washaving actual reference images from google in the scene..
I Just Thought Of The Concept And Looked At Some Pics On Google To Get The Basics of How My Model Should Be.

Anyways .. @ The texture I was Making it . *Portal 2* Style .. I Made A new texture Which Really Doesn't Go Well With The UV Map .. but Here It is

I Shrinked it To 2k x 2k So I Can Upload

Made From Scratch
original file 4k x 4k px



If I Have Time Today I Might Start Working On A Head Model .. Need To Practice Max a Bit

And If I Dont Have Much Time I Might Try Fix Up The Original Spidey Texture :P

You're metal texture isn't bad, but the scratches just look plain silly the way they are now. Check out this link: http://cg.tutsplus.com/articles/news/how-to-hand-paint-convincing-metal-textures/

Follow that tutorial, and you'll have beautiful metal textures.

Its actually a very good idea to keep reference in your scene. using reference is no cheating, its the best way to get great results.

Kay So Atlast This Floor Has Come To An End :P

I'm Pretty Happy With This Since It's My First Try Doing Something Like That...

here The NM And Some Piccys





I Luv Xoliul ^,^

So How Is It?

Razgriz

It's not bad at all for a first tiling texture. The biggest thing that stands out to me is that there is not even close to cohesion between the black grating and the rest of the metal. It needs wear, abrasion, and scrapes on the top of it, just like the rest of the texture. Think about where you are putting your scrapes. The blue trim is looking decent, but the greyish metal has random uniform scratches, while the black grate has none at all.

Dont forget that nearly everything to a metal material is in the specular. Don't be afraid to bump it up more than you have now - and if you would post your specular flats, most of the knowledgeable people here would be able to give you far better advice on what you need to fix.

Ty Razgriz I'll Try Fix It Tommorow If I Have Time

Okay I've Been Away For About 4-5 Days ... I Was Modelling An AK47u Following Racer's Tut. .. I Think I put Some Extra Details Which Really Aren't Needed But I Thought It Should Be Cool Since Anyways I'mm Gonna Bake It ..

And Sorry For not Posting Any Pics Of This ... It's 5:44 Am Here And I Should Really Be Gone To Sleep b4 My Dad Wakes Up XD

AK47u :

FrozenCore#6

Ok I Made The Low Poly Ak74u , Uv Mapped It And Trying To Bake

But i've Been Having Alot of Errors Which Are Really Annoying me And Wasting My Time.

I was testing the bake on 1 part just to make things easier the cage is covering everything and its close to the object. but i keep getting empty pieces in the normal map and the Bg Isn't Filled With That Purple Like color , So I Saved A PNG And filled the Bg With The color And Applied It To The Low Poly .... Ugly Outcome

K Here Are Piccys For Everything and There Is A Download Link Under Them In case U Wanna Check out The Thing Upclose ...

It's Only 400 KB So Dont be Lazy :P
