Spectacular 3D Entry: Paul Robinson

The Tower it is being very cool! :thumbsup:
good luck 4u
c ya

#13

thanks lauro…much appreciated

#14

A great start on the modeling. No crits yet. Goodluck!

#15

The concept is great and the tower looks wonderful so far.

#16

Thanks guys…

I’m taking a small break from working on the tower and I might move onto the plane for now just get the basic look going…i’m going for a normal passenger jet

also, on the concept, i decided to go for something that was a bit more grounded in reality and something that i knew would get a response from people i.e. terrorism

i’ll be back soon with some plane done

#17

Great concept. I like how you started out the tower base…lookign very detailed.

#18

this is just a standard max texture i fiddled with to try and get it looking a bit wet…cos its raining in the scene…

plane (wings) coming in a sec

#19

heres the wings and engines of the 747 for my entry

#20

Looking nice so far, nice concept and the tower model kicks ass so far, good luck!

#21

Oh the engine and plane wings look awesome. Looks like a spectacular model’s on its way :wink:

Yong

#22

ta. rear of the plane is coming soon and hopefully some more detailled layout of the scene will be as well

#23

heres the back bit of the plane (minus tail wings) and the mid section between the main wings

#24

So the basic shape of the plane is all done now the next stage with it is to decide how it will be hitting the tower and destroy appropriately

i think i’ll have an engine falling off, a wing snapping off, flames billowing from a hole in the side (bomb on board) and smoke coming from all the engines (those still atatched…lol)

should be fun to break it…

also apologies for the bad timing of the update…my bad

#25

nice modeling, good luck

when i saw your thread i remenber : today is 9/11:sad:

#26

heres one type of tent for my tent city

#27

Man are you keeping a good pace! We’re like 5 days into an 80 day challenge and you are almost done with the modeling! YIKES. Way to get crankin right off the bat :wink: I wish I could do the same but I’ve got too much friggen homework! Lol.

I like where this is headed. I also agree with your decision to make the plane collide with the tower. Otherwise it would be easy for the viewer to think the plane is “behind” the tower and not actually going to collide.

Have fun creating the explosion. I have NO idea how that is done in 3d. Good luck. (or are you just gonna “paint” the explosion in photoshop?)

#28

thanks mate

modelling is about 30% done…cos i still have a few tent variations, the rest of the tower, the destruction of the plane and the tower and then the environment…

the environment is going to kill me…lol

as for the explosion i’ve been experimenting with some stuff in max over the last few days and might put up some renders soon…

#29

Any chance of a more detailed sketch? I’m not sure I completely get the concept you are going for.

#30

i’ll try and have something for you tomorrow nichod as i’m just about to finish up on my work for this for the day… :slight_smile:

#31

this is just a quick test of the flames and smoke and such on the plane…

i think i went just a bit overboard…hehe

more tomorrow
