Here you go. :) Warning that is quite a mess, and there are for things such as references that are not made by me... and I wont admit that I drew that Orc Hitler. Also many models are probably just a box as I tend to jump between projects, while doing a model I usually had new idea and started working on that. I probably needed someone to tell me what to do... oh now I'm just babbling here's the fricken package! Hope you find something to blunder, there is one Orc model I really wanted to finish (cant remember which one... It is Wings 3d file tho). So Happy hunting!

Most of the files are in made with these programs:
Wings 3d
Gimp
Inkscape
Google Sketchup (happy that I stopped using this)

ARM t1 aircraft. Bigger image.

They're very chunky for aircraft.

i can model stuff well, problem has always being finding a good way to texture units, in a simple and straight way, the previous two models(heck everything i did in the past year) i posted are simple(5 to 10 min rush jobs), i wanted to test atlasing cause it seamed a neat way to reduce texturing time, on very low poly units.

And i also like making a texture that i want, and force the uvmap to adapt to the texture rather than the texture adapt to the uvmap.

Although theres some quality loss in some parts due to resizing the uvmap, its quite good way to texture.

i like that aircraft their a bit chunky "yes", but theyr awesome looking.

Anyways its always a pleasant welcome seeing Damned stuff being released ^^.

FireStorm, that is PURE WIN!

Thats one of the troubles of atlasing, if you have man stretched curves, you sooner then later run out of materials to strech over those places, without repetiveness. Wouldnt wonder, if Behe actually asked to be spared another round cockpit to texture. Because it gets lowdetailed then- or you end up breaking it into chunks anyway. Or Mirror so often is ridiculous, and leading to some strange moire-effects..

Also they look good.

Atlasing? Is this a local meme I've missed out on?

Ayan Ryan started it..

Latetly the crazy has been to use 1 large texture with bits and bobs then map units to it. Like my harbor feature set but MORE generic and for all units.

OMG im going to use that on my organic Units..

DrillTree

Reminds me of this:



I like it, looks very good.

Stunning, picasso!
Do you use normal maps in journeywar? If no, would you like automated support for bumpmap generation/rendering?

Fun stuff; the frequency in which parts of Pyra's atlas texture is used for core:

Before I read DrillTree, I thought it would fly . (Looks cool btw)

And frequency atlas is fun/interesting indeed .

next thing he invent is a way to pack his atlas..
No, i dont have bumpmaps.. all i have is dds - and the bumap extracted from the texture itself in max

If you had a generator for that.. would be Awe

i just used shadermap pro to batch generate bumpmaps, then used jK's unit shader framework to render them.

...and viewed from the other side:

Think I'm about 3/4 done with these. ( a lot of fine tuning still required )

hot damn!

do the normals!
