Have not posted anything in a while, I decided since the Source Film Maker got released, and I wanted a custom train model so I took it upon myself to do it.




I have started to texture it, but its more base colours then anything, as TF2 artstyle is weird...

Any Kingdom Hearts fans here?
This is the Oblivion Keyblade from the first one. I'd say it turned out quite well!

Thank you! I worked for a good 5 hours on it. It turned out with just over 24,000 polygons. I didn't make it for game use, though. The main reason I made it is because I've never seen anyone actually make a model of that keyblade, mainly it's the Kingdom Key getting modeled, so I decided to be different and take a shot at the Oblivion. ^_^

I'm working on an m1 garand right now and have a smoothing error I can't find a way around. I'm hoping some of you have suggestions on how to re-arrange the topology so I can keep the needed shape there while getting rid of the deformity. First shot shows the smoothed version, second shows the unsmoothed topo. Would appreciate any insight on the error (on my part, I see why it is doing it but I need the loop)

Well, after many many many tutts, I finaly got it just about right, All I was missing was 2 things, imagination and textures or texturing,even if I learned how to pelt map, I still was messing around with textures like a mad man,but,after a couple more tutts, I finaly understand it all. here is my tutt model.

@Design runner, The thing causing that error is those 2 polygons being so close together. I would suggest taking each one of them and merging it with the corresponding bigger polygon to produce a smoother flow.

I need all three loops, which is the main problem. I might move them further apart and hope it works out. I could also get rid of the line using photoshop but I would prefer to avoid that.

So far it has a real good shape, the top of the gun is not like the refrence, other then this, I like it, good job so far.

Which part and in what way? If you mean the wooden part at the front, it is because the top will be modeled as a separate object. If not, please elaborate more so I can fix it.

The trigger wood area(?) where your hand will rest seems too sharp

That will definitely not be as sharp in the normal map, the angle of the screenshot was just right so all the light focused on that. It isn't as sharp as it looks. But I appreciate the crits guys. Maybe I'll see about lowering the sharpness if it ends up too high.

@design runner - you run into a very common problem for begginners of subdivision modeling. It's pretty simple, you just didn't use enough polygons in the base mesh, if you started with a more dense mesh, you wouldn't have even need to really add the support edges, getting rid of the error, here's an example below.



the one on the left started with 12 segments, so I had to add supporting edges to harden it up, but in turn, I get the hardened cylinder edges as well, which I obviously don't want. But the one of the right starts with 48, so I don't need to add any extra supporting edges to the sides and it retains it's smoothness.

hope that helped.

and now, time for my art

Nothing flash, but I've done another hand painted weapon, trying to once again have a crack at the Ak. I've also been messing around with different effects, hence the very sharp looking texture.



Also, not too fancy, nor well done, but for a psychology assignment I decided to 3d model(instead of draw by hand) 2 different views of the human brain.

Thanks for that tip camo, makes sense and I can see where I went wrong. Will beveling the current model work or would I need to start over to get it right?

Cannon in looking good, but you have some harsh normals on the barrel itself.

nah, you would pretty much have to start over with the right amount of segments. and thanks, but I am doing this intentionally, many of these cannons are very bumpy

I dont care so much of the normals as to how low res the barrel seems to be compared to the wood, the wood is very easy to read, but the barrel seems very... It could use a few more pixels in the texture size ~~

Do you have the wood and metal on different textures? If theyre on the same then you could definitly make the wood smaller to make place for the metal, as the wood is hardly important in this case

My first animation, made in Cinema 4D
It's not great and does have some problems but it was intented for me to learn the basics of keyframing and camera movement in C4D.

Lowpoly mesh, ears attached, refined the eyes. Or well, the eye area.

It's looking good quik, I would just say that the neck is somewhat flat across the front. Pushing the musculature joining neck to shouler back a bit and defining the collarbone would help build the depth.

I like the edge flow on the forehead/skull

Since FPSC does not accept any custom made stuff I do any more, I have strayed from these neck of the woods. That is when I forgot to show you guys what it looks like completed and in Source Engine.




Getting it into Source was tricky, mainly because I wanted there to be bones.

Another thing I also did which I did not have to do any position editing to get the bones to line up.



If you are wondering what these are for in case I never said, its for a Source Film Maker competition that Valve is hosting.

Finished! Now I just need to start with his scabbard, sword and possibly a shield - not sure..

Might add some ingravings to the helmet, maybe..

Got tired of face excersize - I never get around to texture them, thus, I felt like making somthing that I could texture.

I did use sculpting to get the creases in the "tabard" thingy
And as said above, i will make a scabbard and a sword, but that will have to wait until next week, sort of.

Oh, and the texture is 2048 x 2048, I know, a tad much but..
and it does use specular map.

it is 844 polygons., not shabby if you as me!

The wrinkles in the surcoat are looking good, he bottom edge is too flat across though, vary it up a bit in vert heights to let it flow with the wrinkles

@rolfy: You own us all here when it comes to artistic style! You don't happen to sell these models later, do you?
I know, asking to buy things like this feels like I would underappreciate the art, but quite the contrary is the case. These are some of the best designs/models I have seen in quite some time! They are downright beautiful.


@Josh: What inspired you to model a box of highly detailed toiletpaper?

Now some heavy WIP stuff from me

Alright, here it is:


Please note, that this is pretty much my first real model that I'm proud of.
I was never good at texturing so excuse the non professional look, I'm still a beginner.
Also, this isn't the animation file, I'm using Jon Fletcher's fantasy hands for that, and I'm planning on re-texturing that too!

I like the sword. For the heaume they usually have some holes around the mouth area. They could be added through the texture maps pretty easy without having to mess with the model.

Here's some ref http://images.google.com/search?hl=en&tbo=d&biw=1024&bih=672&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=heaume&oq=heaume&gs_l=img.1.0.0j0i10i24j0i24l5j0i5i24l3.3619.7701.0.9485.9.9.0.0.0.0.866.2306.0j2j2j5-1j1.6.0...0.0...1ac.1.toGAIJKdlQs

edit: I'll just add to this post instead of doubling. I haven't really done much modelling lately but had a bit of free time today so I thought I'd do up a quick bust for proportions practice:



The shape of the skull should be quite a bit more accurate than my previous characters. I hadn't realized how off I was until I started studying the underlying bones instead of just full heads. Hair in the refs throws things off a good bit if you are not careful.

Compared to the most recent one before this, I see that the whole lower half in particular was way off:

And now for some more art, I'm not sure if I posted the original WIP on here or not, but I decided to redo my old attempt at this environment, now with double the knowledge. This is just a base facade I made with my modular pieces.
