[clix101]

Great details, ill be watching this one

[warchild_666]

finished the ankle or at least those freaks call it an ankle

[warchild_666]

small update but spend lots of time on this darn foot since i want it to be able to be smoothed these stubit square extrusions drove me crazy then max added tons of edges i didn't ask for and had to spend lots of time cleaning up and fixing the mesh

[revelli]

cool, very nice details
this with materials will rock

[NVD180]

Wow that's awesome. So detailed, i wish i could model this good

[warchild_666]

foot is almost done gone try making some materials after that

@revelli yeh i hope i find a nice aluminium tutorial cause i never managed to make a nice brushed aluminium material and metalic paint *shiver*

@NVD180 i can't model that good it's try ,see there's tons of errors then try again and so on

Whence you take all these details? 8o

[mikolc]

Looks really awesome. Great details.

[Silent][Moebius]

sweet man. where did you get ref pics and prints to make everything so detailed?

the prints in the blueprint section are pretty nice, but they don't show this much detail.

[warchild_666]

did a material test (foot isn't finished yet) sadly enough i overlighted it maybe gone do a new render tonight or so for the foot only the blue looks kinda lika i wanted it the white has the exact same settings but looks difrent for some reason and the iron or whatever it is looks to dark in my opinion however render doesnt look that bad imo

i get refs from a site of some freaks that actualy build these replica's in RL they have a link to a yahoo group with evry part of it in pdf with measurements and all a bit of a difrent challenge makin these in max (smoothable) they don't have much on the dome and the body tho so i think thats where the **** s gone hit the fan

[warchild_666]

starting to work on the body
(clayrender without any smoothing)

big thanx to tomsullivan for his render setup

[NightEye]

For once finish something, ok? Nice!!

[Silent][Moebius]

this whole project looks very very promising! so please don't trash it at some point

[Catlin]

thats one hell of a detailed model so far love to se it finished not a great fan of SW tho

[warchild_666]

update on the body
lost alot of time cause i messed up something (body and panels are made as flat planes then bended like a tire tread)

[hkstuned]

wireframe, wireframe.

[warchild_666]

wire of the body/panels so far added a couple more didn't have much time lately

[The IC]

haha sweet, looks nice, those materials you had in the earlier renders look great too

[warchild_666]

didn't have much time but i managed to strugle my way trough most of the bodywork so far
