I am truly awed by these pictures man…well done. I would like to know how you managed to get those wireframes looking like you did?? Is it the software you use?? (what do you use BTW?) Is it a technique that is well known? Or is it a little secret you stumbled across?? If it is the last then of course you can keep it to yourself…but otherwise…DO TELL! please…they look magnificent.
Cheers!:bounce:

[b]brenno777............Pigwater thanks[/b]..............I use Max,Maya,have used XSI,and am thinking to add z_brush now,as well as bodypaint,renderings with V-ray,and some mental ray and Brazil.....................On and on it goes.......And for some things a little [i]magic dust and mirrors[/i]..............
[b]harnelbe[/b]...............Yes my talented friend,a storm is brewing,a little update is coming now,with a larger one this weekend............contraptions aplenty are in the works as well as further design on the Bros Boulderbreaker themselves......Thanks again harnelbe.....
Update coming right up......thanks again all.
:beer: :beer:Here is an update…Some “revision work”,some added details,more to follow of course…
I am currently working on the "[i]four main contraptions[/i]" for the [i]"Boulderbreaker bros vessel of rolling thunder"[/i],I hope to show them in the next week or so individually.They are the main parts for the vessel,and will be used by four of the "seven Boulderbreaker Bros".........................I am also completing the designs for the bros themselves and there machine/flesh combination.There is also a Rum distiller and engine coming,a Good [i]"Scalawag"[/i] never goes far from his rum you know............................the Bros will be flesh and machine themselves,but will also be involved with this vessel,there flesh will play a big part in the vessel itself as well...........................................[b][u]"Flesh and machine can only exist by co-existing"[/u][/b]..........................My motto for my challenge entry....................
This is about a 50% version...............A concept of the Bros themselves is coming soon as well...................as well as a better idea of there involvement with there vessel..........Oh and the "TOY" is under design now,more on that later.............
Ok here you go,thanks very much for the fantastic support,it is very much appreaciated,and never taken for granted.Lot's of work,but even more fun................Late nights for us all,but we would not have it any other way would we........Thanks again....................

[b]And a wire[/b]
[img]http://forum.kaistavginski.de/files/boulderbreaker_bros_vessel_wip_setb_8b.jpg[/img]Here are some more wires…You can see some beginning stages of “Rigging”…this vessel will be MULTI-FUNCTIONAL",it will be quite flexible,it’s early yet,more functions and flexibility will show when I get the rest of the main contraptions/weapons and toys aboard it…More detailing too is on the menu…
[b]Here is a shot to show some flexibility,much more to come,it's early,I am just playing with some rigs now........[/b]
[img]http://forum.kaistavginski.de/files/boulderbreaker_bros_vessel_wip_setb_9b.jpg[/img]And another look at some rig and flexibility tests…more to come…

Thanks for the support all,it's a great help and always appreaciated......................:beer:this is totally insane!!, good work, my machine is collapsing when opening your wires pictures, really like your style… woooo!:buttrock:
:eek: Holy Mother of God !Wicked in everyway.Love it mate.And with more to come it bedazzles the mind.Style design and vision at it’s best.Those Brothers have them a ride to remember mate.Love it to death!More,I want me more!!!:bounce: :drool:
Hum, do you work sometimes, or do you eat/spleep ? 
Great work, but will it be ok on your computure for so much polygons ? (which software ? 3DSMax ?)
:love: Amazing,such execution and design.I think this so inspires me.Impossible but it is here.Just amazing.:applause: 
Thunk & thump.That was my jaw hitting the floor.And here is my drool:drool: Insanity at it’s best.Wowzers***:eek:
woah :eek:
hey virtuoso… the gun is actually much smaller than i thought… the level of detail looked really high for a huge gun, but with this size it’s even more awesome. and you should know i don’t just say this because we are project-partners!
it’s really great to see this coming together, i liked the previous shots a lot, but of course being a wip i knew there was still a lot to come… and here it is. the rear gunner area and also the cockpit look really fleshed out now, i don’t know if there’s even more to come, but it’s just amazing and totally unique as it is.
i love shot 6b, showing just the already very detailed top area… it has something special too it, it just gives you this true ‘fantasy’ feeling, even without textures :applause:
the roofed area in the front is also just great
