View Full Version : Feel huge
peter cheung 04-21-2005, 02:45 PM Hi
I am modelling a huge, i want it feel huge. So
1) modelling more detail (but this take me long time)
2) more subtilize texture
Is there a third way to accomplish this?
thanks

well, in order to model a huge u have to make sure u start from a small
also u should carefully check u'r topology because as u go faster and faster with the work it should get bigger and bigger, and finnaly u should get to a huge
texturing is not a problem as the huge can ussually be textured with procedural maps
u should also be careful to take u;r time with u'r, ummm, work, as u don;t want to get to a huge too fast, its better to go slow
and last but not the least, u should make sure that u get a huge, if not, u should stick working with a small until u are prepared to make a huge

ps. in the end it should feel huge, if it doesn't, just ask someone to umm, look at it
if he (and preferably a she) doesn't agree that it is a huge, well, tough luck ol' chum
ROFLMAO and every other web abreviation to describe similar things ... damn! I assure you i cried with this one! I mean real tears!
Ok. Stop.
peter cheung, you didn't made your post very clear: What are you modeling anyways? You just said that it's a huge .... a huge what?
You better say it so people can start helping and stop teasing.
On the other hand....
Some say that it's not the size of the *model* that matters, but how you *animate* it ...
Sorry couldn't resist. :)

ok..i was laughing out crying in here
this has got to be the funniest question i've ever seen
i want to model a huge, i want it feel huge
i just can't stop laughing
sorry, i know its unnapropriate and rude, but cmon,
just real the damn question
its just hilarious
I'm betting he wants to model a huge spaceship thou. Any bets?

My guess is a planet(s), maybe he is having trouble making a planet look or feel big.
My only suggestion for modeling a huge is to use the scale tool.

no, see, what he wants is HUGE. so first you create a text object which says "huge". then you scale it by 10,000,000,000,000,000,000% and angle the camera so that it looks HUGE....

sorry
forgive my bad english, i was modelling a space battleship, when i render it, it look like a small ship, i want it look like a huge ship. I already added some high resolution texture, but it still look like a small ship. May be the modelling is not enough detail or may be i need to put some small thing to the scene.
So how can you guy make a space battleship that look like a huge ship?
thanks

ok, to modelling a battleship that look huge, i need to start at modelling the most small part , then do the modelling and modelling, for my skill level, it will take me 10 years.
Is there any other faster way. I tried to put a high resolution texture, but doesn't work. Some people said i need to put more small object near the ship, then the ship will look huge, but i disagree, look at the startek, the spaceship fly in the space, you can feel it is a huge ship, but the background of it is just a black, no another object is on the sceen except the ship.
thanks

First thing about making something look big is giving something as a comparison... want a ship to look big? put it near smaller ships.
Next, play with perspective - a tricky camera can add a lot to your image.
Don't cover the object in detail... add variety, big things will often have patches of detail, and flatter areas. Smaller objects have a more consistant detail level.
as said, you need something to compare. add airlocks, writings and windows and probably small astronauts doing some welding.

look out for greeble, but please don't overdo it.

Ok I WON!!! Yeah! Lol!
Peter, i'd really give Greeble a try. It makes wonders. Adds all those bits and pieces of geometry, giving a sense of scale very efficiently.
