Is it a forest Mech?

Put some leaves and branches on him. Maybe a saw (hate to say that cuz I'm pro rainforest).
Make him chants some spells, this is the enchanted forest challenge after all, -> over the top?

Anyway, have fun during the challenge :D

[Thoth]

Damn, couldn't make it as a first one on this thread :)


I'm looking forward to see how you attach that Mech to a forrest......;)

HEAVY GEAR RULES

[hypronost]

Ok, everything going smooth, just modeled the gun, I know it needs more detail, but I'll pay more attention to that later, tell me what you think..

ps: working on an other animation with the gun at tha moment, be posting it soon.

[hypronost]

Wooooooohhhoooooo !!!!
Just finished my lttle animation with the lasergun.
Though there isn't coming any laserbeam out of it, will soon.

This was just a test to how the gun should move.
Note how the demper in the midle of the gun moves when shooting.

Please tell me what ya think.

ANIMATION GUN (http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/animations/robottest2.avi)

[hypronost]

small animation comming up !

[kandyman]

Cool, A mech with guns! Just what I imagined when I read about the topic "enchanted forest" ! ;)

[benhaines]

Hi Hypronost

can I make a small suggestion, I've seen your animation and I think you need to consider adding a few more edges here and there... overall the mech seem very.... well round and soft. I guess thats what you get from just using nurbs but a few hard edges here and there wouldn't be too bad.

Great idea.... btw

I gues your right , I'll work on that
thanks.:)

[hypronost]

Ok, did a few adjustments here and there, now everything isn't so smooth (*benhaines*)..

[Clanger]

Starting to look really good there.
Can't wait to see it stomping through the forest, shafts of light streaming through.

[hypronost]

Well this is an early render , just tought I'd post it, for god knows what reason:hmm:


http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/robot.jpg

[hypronost]

Just a quick render, update.


http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/wip5.jpg

[hypronost]

Ok, these are some corrections that need to done.
(tought of them during the render)
http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/wip5cor.jpg

1. The legs need to be wider.

2. The legs will have big pansering.

3. I just don't know what to do with those things, make them lights probably


Tell me what ya think !

[Koma]

hey cool little mech forest !!!

[hypronost]

Thanks,

PEOPLE , :shrug: GIVE :shrug: ME :shrug: SOME:shrug: FEEDBACK !!!!!!!!!! ! ! ! :shrug: !!!

[[msf]]

It's a nice start to a cool little mech...

Aw man, I hate to say this... :hmm:

but...

erm,

I see (as I said, very cool) robot - my mind doesn't go "Enchanted Forrest"...:shrug:

I know that everyone has there own interpretation of the topic, and you may take this somewhere very nice indeed and make me look like a short sighted fool... but right now (and I know it's a WIP), doesn't strike the 'enchanted' feel for me. :surprised

Hope you know what I mean buddy, and don't want to hurt me with knitting needles.

I deffenetly know what you mean:), and I'm not pissed or anything, in the contrery (god knows if I spelled that right) I like these comments.:)
But you see, there are a million different things going on in my head (considering this challange) and once you see the finished product it will be a more than enchanced forest and that will be the result of those million different things.... I don't know what I just said and if it makes any sence but at least I tried , right ?...:surprised

[AJ]

Cool Beans :D

[hypronost]

Ok, just a small animation to set the right nulls and pivots to the leg,
Turned out pretty nice.:)

Tell me what ya think ,please...:)

>>>>>> leg animation (http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/animations/legtest1.avi)<<<<<<

[Jacko Cohen]

so it's down to 2 stars now :hmm:
That's strange because technically it's a good model.

I guess people are trying to say: Cool mech but not very enchanted forest.

You can put him in the greatest enchanted forest EVER - he'd still look out of place.

[ZrO-1]

hehehe I like that leg animation. If you have the whole robot animated like that you could have him "hippity hoppiting" down the rabbit trail. :D

Damn you people !!:D
I'm losing stars with the minute. Noooooooo...:scream:

Well, I understand your point Jacko Cohen.:)
I think it's bout time I'll start on yhat forrest,....

Maybe, I was thinking,...He would be out of place in a ordenairy forrest,....But what if created a mechanical forrest , that would fit him wouldn't it ?:)

[Clanger]

I'd vote for dense real forrest with the mech smashing down trees to get through.

I know, that was the big idea, but apperently that isn't counted as enchanced, well I'll see what I can do.:)

When I started this challange I had the same image in my head of a mech running trough a huge forrest smashing down everything in it's way (trees),

well, anyway I'll first finish the mech and then I'll see what I can do with the forrest,

till then any suggestions are more than welcome, thanks. :)

[Clanger]

You could chuck in a few upset fairys, topic sorted.

[leigh]

LOL@clanger :scream:
Yeah, Hypronost, you really do need to get something enchanting in here. A mechanical forest is a cool idea, but unfortunately not very enchanting either :surprised
Hmmmmm....
Maybe you should just go with the mech running through the forest and trashing it. Maybe it doesn't like enchanting forests?? Heheheh, so it's stomping around trashing the place :buttrock:

[amusedtoe]

well its looking great and im sure youll be able to get it to integrate well with the forset seamlessly so keep it up since this is one of the more unique ideas :thumbsup:
-peace

[hypronost]

I've solved it !! !! !

Ok, here it comes...

Enchanted is something magical , right ?:shrug:
The mech isn't pretty magical I admit, however these mechs don't have to be
men made or men driven, right ?:shrug:

So when I say the crazy magician Freddy creates these Mech's in order
TO CONQUER THE WORLD ! ! HAHAHAHAAHAHA (and maybe even the univers)HAHAHAHAHA :buttrock:

No ? to much, tought so...:shrug:


:)

[L0rd]

No that really dosn't cut the mustard, not with me anyway. Why not make your mech warrior look more kinda organic, build it out of vegetation, as though it has grown out of the forest floor or something, so it looks 'alive', driven by 'magic' rather than fusion power cells.

[hypronost]

Hmmmm, that's kinda interesting.

What would you think of this.:)

WW III (futuristic WW whit mech' and stuff) ended but some remaines of the desroyed mechs remain on fields , streets, ...and forrests, one magical night one of the fallen mechs magically reveives , whit mother natures power he reconstructs himself and is reborn and now has a mind of his own, what do ya think, to much , tought so:)

[hypronost]

K, this is a small composition animation I made with the mechRobot

I already started on the envirement trees and stuf , be posting someting on that soon, :wip:

tell me what ya think bout the animation, k:)



:wavey: >>>>>>>>>>ANIMATION<<<<<<<<<< (http://users.pandora.be/frederic.lierman1/whallange%20wip/animations/robotanimation.zip):wavey:


warning 15 mb:wip:

[ZrO-1]

Dam, he's a fast little sucker isn't he? :D That mech can really fly.
