Alright me and another chap have decided to try our hand at making a game(not the first time but you know how it goes with thinking big then falling hard.) Im thinkin of being serious with this one cause its a great idea.

We dont plan on selling this game. its more of a personal acheivement thing. but i wanna share with all my friends at 3d chat. maybe get some ideas or some c and c. plus i would need help with textures so hopefully you guys can help.(with advice i dont want anyone doing anything for me.

usually this would be in the game design theory forum. but this is all 3d concept, programming will be my friends job. so i think its appropriate in this fourm plus i just love you all

now thats out of the way here are some sketches done for some characters(all characters will be some sort of vehicle or mech. twisted metal style you know.)

[o and all the x's are things i find to ugly for words sorry.]

sorry for the bad drawing skills but i hope you get the idea. any more ideas for vehicles or mechs. would be cool. for now theres no actual 3d work done. except a small level but its not textured and looks pretty crapy right now. sorry for spelling and grammer errors too.

have a great day guys

Ok. Good. It's not really a 3D forum thing, it's not really a WIP. You have posted too soon. Get something done first.

Game Design theory really is the only place this fits, so I would ask a mod to move it...however I hope this turns out well for ya BenD, have only seen you in the 3D modelling part of things, it would be nice to see some of your others skills

well, as you're posting concept for a 3d model, which you're about to post, i see no problem. It's nice to see the concept first.

I don't have a sig, live with it.

Well really the drawings do not show much that is a concept as far as I can see.

alright here is a wip.

the camera is set a 1000 units away cause thats what the game will be set in. and the front view is too is part of the games style. its gunna be a platform type thing the idea is cool i hope we finish this .



now i have to texture and i have no idea where to start cause this ones gunna need a uv. but i dont know where to start with a good texture.

these would be great if you could spare some time.
1)suggestions for a texture
2)hints for textures
3)links to texturing tutorials
4)a metal texture that i may work with or a link to such a material
5) 1 through 4 only applying to uv maps.

thanks for all your help and support.

here's what you should do for the texture;



and try limefly.net for a decent metal texture.

hippy warfare works but i dont think hippys would have good aim. seeing the battle field might be alittle hazy
