Re: first ant model

comments welcome

Hehehe, I´m sure you´ll get it babyduck, Nurbs are difficult to work with ... however nice entry! looking forward on seeing more. user added image

wow, only took you an hour, and i needed so long to put the spheres together. i think i will steal your idea, when happy with shape i will make it look more mechanical user added image cannot wait to see your model finished ...

Update, started the detailing and played with the shape a bit. Its a bit more stearmline which i think makes it look fast=).Still need to play with the shape of the wings a lot.

first attempt body

This is what I have come up with very quickly. I have a concept sketch but no scanner to scan it in with! I will try and get it uploaded later. I am going for a bruiser of a mech. None of this stealth stuff! user added image

Comments or suggestions?

PS I hate the head so far but I will change that this evening once i get a chance.

Great start PureMorning!

Remember guys, keep on commenting here as you´ve always done with the competitions, I´ll keep on updating the Showcase, that way, you won´t get lost with the images. user added image

By the way: Just in case, the "comment here" link you can find in all the entries post just links to this page, so it´ll add another post here so remember to say to who it is intended to. For example, If you saw the image of undseth at the showcase, and you want to comment it, remember to say "undseth".

Everything competition-related goes here.
If it isn´t in the competition then perhaps it´s a WIP or a Finished Work forum material.

Hope this helps Cyrius.

Looking forward on your SpiderMech entry.

Hmm ...

If you´re making something for the competition like the Spidermech, then post here the mech´s screenshots. Everyone will comment them here also.
If it isn´t for the competition then I believe i´t goes somewhere else right?

Did you understand?

Looking forward on your entry.
