Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Space Marine
A Warhammer 40 000 Space Marine, almost done with textures and bumpmapping.
Any Comments?

I like the model itself but the colour green is not suitable I think. If I remember the lore correctly, there's no SM that's green.Originally posted by bigtommyb
looks good just everything needs more detail and im not so hot on the green but thats just personal taste. Check out the feature they have on the CGSociety website you can see how much more you can add as they are really cool characters.

But if you do like the green, then I suggest that the background be some sort of jungle and the green is for camouflage, since that would make a lot of sense lore wise and is novel.
Just my opinion. But good job overall.

I was going for a low poly model, but perhaps I should have spent more time on the bump map and textures.
Anyway, about the green color. It's suppose to be a Dark Angel Space Marine, but the textures came out alot brighter green than it should have. Maybe it's my poor lighting skills or a cockup with the textures somehow. Have to look into it I guess.
Love the awesome comments by the way :attn:

Oh, you're right, it's dark green (sorry, my mistake, I honestly can't recall that chapter). Though it seems to be much darker than yours.Originally posted by Lord Bane
Reading the article on CGsociety right now, amazing site.

If you want to stick to the canon (which I'm guessing you will), you may want to try to move it just a bit to the blue side and then make it darker. It should hit the colour spot on. No worries.

Here's a link for your quick reference on the colour!
But if you want to create a new chapter... by all means also!
Keep up the good work yar?

Oh, yeah changed the theme to a more Black Templars approach.
What do you guys think?

Maybe you can include a slight glow to the eyes as well. It may work well seeing how dark the rest of the body is.

That being said, good you chose the black templars, I cant imagine the cloaks of the Dark Angels to be a lot of fun.
Challenging though...
In ICT there are two kinds of people : Technically challenged artists, and artistically challenged technicians.
I am, without a doubt, the latter.
