How can u work on a MAC? yuk!:shame:

anyways, the mech is coming along nicely, but you should in my opinion add sharper edges, its too beveled.

HEHE my sediments exactly.... ALthought he pixel level on a mac is radically different from a pc..
Sweet model, although hard to add a serious crit to your work. I personally would like to see a closer render and ones from different sides... Good Work..:thumbsup:

actually i love the edges! i want to see a wire :drool:

First of all, the mech is awesome, great job on design and model!

Second of all... cool trick (I'll have to use that ;)).

The Style XP icon is what tipped me off (although, now that I think about it, macs don't have quick launch or desktop toolbars).

Anyway, more importantly, nice job on the mech, can't wait to see it done :thumbsup:.

Hmmm... I can't say much so early. Is that your own design? Show us some sketches!! pleeeze! :D

what kind of OS is this? simply MacOSX? Or issit that new one? I didn't know that there is a Lightwave-Mac-Ver out. I have to work with the Layouter at work. And.... I just hate it. But the modeller is cool I heard...

[ewerybody]

Damn! You really spoofed me... :blush: And I was looking for a macOSX-theme too..

Thanks people :) I'll post an update later, and I'll do some renders/wire as well.

It isn't my design, I can't off the top of my head recall the name/site it's from, but I like this design a lot, it could almost be 2nd world war with the style of it.

Cheers

P.s. It is WinXP running StyleXP and a Panther theme.

This is excellent my friend. I recently laid my eyes on Lightwave for the first time and was not sure how to use the tools to start 3D modelling. Would you know of a site where I could learn some of the basic functions ?

Thanks guys! I'm actually building from a John Wallin design, so aside from small details, it'll just be kinda how he designed it.

Time for a quick update, I've done a little work on the left hand gun, and some details added along with a bunch of optimised bits from previously show (you'll not notice them really as there was no wire frame before though).
