Ray-O-Matic sci-fi gun for space trucker.

[SHEPEIRO]

Nada noting, ow well will update in a bit.

really need a hand on those texture sizes/poly counts for weapons in a standard modern FPS, something like BF2 or HL2

[SHEPEIRO]

ok heres a little update, finished th ehigh poly model gave it a simple colour scheme, but im gaonna change it so that the ridge dictates a two tone orange and white ting. erm bad description.

if someone could give me a help on those numbers =-)

Looking really good. My only crit would be the handle. The back of it looks too sharp to hold the gun comfortably. Other than that, it's fantastic. Really captures the feel of the old Flash Gordon series'.

[SHEPEIRO]

thnxs for the replywell ive softened the top part of the grip where the thumb will go across, but the sharpness will stay because it looks better, and i dont have to hold it. ha. well i looked at quite a bit of 50s style kitchen ware to design this and i think alot of stuff then was made for style rather than practicallity so theres me reasoning.

[SHEPEIRO]

updtate time, well played around with the rig quite a bit i think its deforming quite alot better but still not quite there.

added the high poly gun to the scene, this weekend will bake it down to low poly. mmmm sounds like cookin

i like the character but i dont like the weapons or the scifi scene..

[pedromt]

i think it all looks great. no crits. Cool concept and scene. I'd love to see what kind of astro truck he drives or whatever...

[dpizzle]

HAHA
yes, this is great!

[retardedmonkey]

SHEPEIRO man that is really nice. The character really looks alot higher than he is, its just really nice work!

[SHEPEIRO]

cheers folks, its not finished yet, but im hoping to get it done at some point soon. getting my portfolio online is taking up alot of my time ;-)

Looking great!

I'd love to see him squinting his eyes a bit, getting ready to squeeze that trigger, showing more emotion and personality.

Also a double-handed grip might be more expressive, and more in keeping with his shooting-range gear.

I'd like to see better lighting, a couple fill lights and a rim light would really bring out the nice texture work.

If the bkg is going to be plain, you might as well put him on a flat surface that fades out into a lighter color, not black. Think of those photo-studio shots where they have the floor that curves up into the wall, so you don't see a hard horizon. Keeps the attention focussed on the character, and it's easy to make!

[SHEPEIRO]

i think your right about the expression on his face would add alot, dont know how well he'll deform i didnt really design him for a face rig =-z its a while since i modelled this guy, so ill have to look into it.

two handed grip, yeah good thinking.

the background/lighting setup was a late night "place holder" which hasnt been propperly done over yet.i have some metal pipe stuctures that i might have him infront of instead.

thanks for the crits
