Me Grimlock in 3D Again, heavy for 56kers,

Showster · Jun 2006

Tried to model this sucker about 3 years ago but got bored and didn't quite finish the model.

Anyhow I'd like to get him into Q3 with the rest of my mod stuff eventually, his count is a bit high around 3500. Which seems an enormous amount when considering the detail (lack of) but most of his geometry has to be capped or worked with some decent joints.

Still have to texture him! Anyhow heres a link

And of course transformation video :-

just wondering why his fingers are already posed, shouldnt you model them natural and rig them to do that?

Showster · Jun 2006

Just rotated a little its not problem to set them back to their original postion.

Ironhide was such a hard ass!
Nice goin! Now all we need is a little texturing and a lot of luck.

Mr Ray · Jul 2006

Devastator came out great. The color choices make it more like the toy than for a realistic figure, but I'm not sure what you're going for with it

I'm guessing you used the toys as a reference. Either way, great job.

Mr Ray · Jul 2006

yea, i used the toys as references for the vehicle modes. I tried to keep it inline with the cartoon version while giving it a more realistic updated look. I would of liked it to looked more realistic but this is where mt current skills lead me.

notman · Jul 2006

Well, the things that stand out to me are the green or purple tracks. You'd probably have to darken up the green also, if you were going to go with a more realistic look. Not that I've ever seen a green excavator in real life

Again though, good job.

ebagg · Jul 2006

Badass. I had the T-Rex toy as a kid, you've done a great job!

Showster · Jul 2006

sorry about the small video, this was a whore to animate and its not quite 100% yet. But here

Devastator in all his glory

Funky Bunnies · Jul 2006

Yeah man, this is looking great!
I'm looking forward to seeing more of the oldschool G1 crew in 3d

Showster · Jul 2006

had a bit more joy :-) finally ingame, only the transformation animation though atm.

notman · Jul 2006

Seems a little out of place

And a little small for the city :P

I like the head for the health though

Showster · Jul 2006

well hehe, hopefully when the cybertron level is complete, I can scale him up to size, for now he can be a midget in the wild west lol!

Joao Sapiro · Jul 2006

that guy screams "clone/invert normals/apply black material" !! great one man

Mr Ray · Jul 2006

His forearms arent positioned properly making his arms look too long ingame =S

Showster · Jul 2006

yea dnt worry just me being a tard 10 sec fix :-p

Showster · Jul 2006

Small update being trimming down a very old prime model(2000), stands around 1700 polygons at the moment (it was well over 2.5k including trailer). Still alot of smoothing groups and caps to fix.

We also plan on using rays version of prime, but this model also has to be cleaned up for the game engine.

Rays model stands just over 3200 polys / tris

Edit Can't remember if I posted any of the actual ingame rol pics from before so here goes.

Woo we have pickups ;-)
