We’ve begun on modeling.


#3

Looks like you’re off to a flying start.

It will be cool to see it in a nice atlantic storm.


#4

actually, it’s during the dead of winter in the atlantic, look more for semi calm waters and ice bergs :wink:

Nice, i like the detail on her.

The massive Main guns should take out any hood on the water :stuck_out_tongue:

But watch out for them sword fish, i hear they tend to attack you.

Good job so far, cant wait to see more.

I am not happy with this at all, but here’s a water/ice shader test. I KNOW I can do better!


#8

hey, I think it blooming good I knew it was an Iceberg as soon as I saw it, one thing about it though it seems to flat at the top, but like you said your just working on the shader. :slight_smile:


#9

my issue with it is that it still looks way too cartoonish. Something I am trying desperately to avoid. I really dont feel like building my own shader from scratch :slight_smile:


#10

woww that model is amazing i cant wait to see it in animation great job

best regards


#11

hmm i dont know… I try to imagine someone going up those stairs and then I look at the size of those bolts on the guns! something is not in proportion…


#12

yep, you’re right about that. After I get my ice field done, I’m gonna go ahead and tweak those and finish up the ship.


#13

it’s getting there. Any major crits?


#14

there, I just custom built a shader (I dont ever want to do that again)


#15

I’d suggest you drop the bloom a little, it’s looking VERY bright. Otherwise, looks quite nice.


#16

I REALLY liked on the original iceberg render how you could really see part of the berg that was below the water. I can see on your lastest render that you can still kind of see that, but I think it’d improve the look if that were more visible. Just my two cents. But everythings looking great so far. Keep up the good work!


#17

oh no worries, this is just some ice ^^ for the ice shelf :wink: The bergs are gonna be there still :slight_smile:

Here’s a map I drew for Sebastien:


#18

aaaahhh, I see now… :applause: Thanks for the map, it really helps to give an idea of your guy’s plan. Well, I’m getting more and more excited about this one each day :beer:


#19

hehe yeah! I doubt we’ll be able to finish this in time for the contest, but it’ll definatly continue past then :slight_smile: Problem is that I just got contracted to do a huge Eve-Online gathering event in Las Vegas on the 15th so I’m working my ass off for that! But I will update this so don’t worry :slight_smile:

The Eve (www.eve-online.com) gathering will have myself and a few others doing the game models in high detail and doing fleet combat in space.
