Grand Space Opera 3D Entry: haim ifrah

I’m going to follow this thread really closely. I really really like this stuff!

I love the fact that you are taking this well researched approach, and I love the suit. If you need any technical help with anything here, I worked with NASA for 4 years designing experiments for the space shuttle, and I know a lot of contacts in NASA, aerospace folks, engineers, etc.

One question for you, how are the visor and shade assembly affixed to the helmet? Typically the bubble is spherical, and fabric is wrapped over the assembly so that the gold visor and the sun shades can be pulled down while sliding over the sphere. Can we get a close up of the helmet mechanisms?

Awesome stuff man, keep it up.

thank d-tox , the rig is almost done …

SVMaerospace - i’am really appreciate your help ! in fact the model is very basic …
i didnt model any mechanisms and as u can see the model is not exacat the real thing .
so lets consider the suit as "super future space suit that don’t need any mechanisms "
and hope that it will work … :thumbsup:
any way , i will post a close up to the head …

#43

Haha, ok. Glad to be of some service.

#44

close up … and texture test …

#45

this one is more “alien” and less
“starwar” i think …

#46

comments please ?

#47

That last ship has nice insect (hornet) style to it.

#48

looking cool, might I sugest a bit of randomization the brightness levels of the window? and allways have some that have lights that are not on :slight_smile:

#49

thanks azazel and BookMansBlues!

textures not final yet … still working one it ! (some decals meybe …)

#50

cool gunship! and i agree that blue window is strange , are they window?? cool concept design space ship!

#51

blue windows ?!! no way ! they just cool glowing blue … things . :slight_smile:
more updates to come !

#52

the space shuttle … still WIP

#53

Hi there! Very nice idea. I think it’s great because viewer can easily identify with the situation… it’s a good point:thumbsup: Your alien ship is great, but I advice to increase the speculars of it. The space shuttle looks promising, add some plating to it, but maybe with a bump map, no need to spend hours on modeling them. I’m waitin for more:twisted:

#54

thanks arturro !
now i’am working on the shuttle’s engines and textures. more updates soon ! :slight_smile:

#55

the overall design of the gunship is very cool, like a giant upside-down scorpion. only crit would be that i would prefer the gunship to be darker and with a more metalplated look, while the lights are darker green or so.

keep on the good work

#56

the space shuttle with some textures.

#57

I have to say that I really like to look of your larger alien ship…it looks like an Insect almost…this should definatly be a focus of your image…keep it up… :thumbsup:
