Bear Fortress?

[SanadaUjiosan]

as a training, i decided to make thunder (t1 arm bomber) remake but i totally messed up model (back part of wings, so ignore it atm) and i need to make it once again. thats why i want opinions about its overall wings shape, cabin, bomb placement and especially the rear small 'wings' which hold engines (ye these are fugly atm)

While I'm not against the stylistic choice (you get points for being different) I can potentially see this design having aerodynamic issues in a real-world setting. That being said, I know nothing about aerodynamics, that's just me making barely-educated guesses. Maybe try a way to make the open bay look more aerodynamic, instead of very blocky and straight?

[Wombat]

YO DAS BRUCE, I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU AND I'MMA LET YOU FINISH BUT WOMBAT HAD ONE OF THE BEST THUNDER REMAKES OF ALL TIME. ONE OF THE BEST THUNDER REMAKES OF ALL TIME.

i havent seen any other thunder remake, so i smell a bit of sarcasm, and im very sad

SanadaUjiosan - ye, u are right, as long as bay will stay open coz it looks 'different', i got no idea how to make it more aerodynamic

aGorm - ur minigun could use few more 'barrels' (dunno if its the right word) anyway cool as always :D

ah, wont make special thread for that, someone wants to send me human 3d model for my blender? (or at least something that reminds human :D)

[rattle]

okay...

con:
too many polygons on bombs, round stuff in the rear
body not well defined, not interesting to look at

pro:
well it's your second model...

Bears?

It's the B-Team requesting that you hand over all your underage girls at once

You should lighten up the fur a bit, it's very difficult to see anything at all.

agorm is my hero

[aGorm]

It's a bit hard to tell on this crap work monitor... is this better?

i like the sweet teddybears :D

[KaiserJ]

i love them, especially the sniper bear :D

i was meant to be helping wombat btw and i failed; so its really all on me :D

[Wartender]

nice models wombat, but i have to say it looks like you're using WAY too many polies on the bombs and the engines/thrusters/whatever in the back. Other than that i like the style and the concept

[Jazcash]

What the hell Wombat is making content now?

[MidKnight]

What the hell Wombat is making content now?

Why aren't you making content right now?

[Wombat]

ok, second try, Thunder v2, changed everything together with open bomb bay, coz couldnt make it look cool but aerodynamic at the same time
pilot cabin is going to look more 'clearly' with textures i think. im sure u noticed this triangle behind cabin and u dont like it, its already fixed, but was too lazy to make new screens :D




EDIT: ok, i removed this triangle and lowered the body around cabin a bit.


i already removed a lot of vertices from engine, i hope textures will balance details in this model.
final version, i stop uploading pictures of this model, so i dont make mess in this topic :D

[Das Bruce]

Huge improvement, I still think the engines look out of place with their level of detail compared to the angular main body.

[Beherith]

Much better, though I agree with bruce about the engines looking out of scale and place.

[rattle]

use 5 or 6 sided cylinders or model them solid with caps sticking out in the rear

is this better?

yeah I can see them now
looking good as usual

[Tribulex]

What the hell why was my post deleted? I was praising aGorm and that is grounds for deletion?

It's a bit hard to tell on this crap work monitor... is this better?



aGorm

I'm lovin' it

still looks dark to me, but would have to see them ingame to really tell

[Das Bruce]

All the fur looks completely black to me, no details coming through at all.

[aGorm]

Having just looked at home, I can safly say the fur is way to dark... I realy didn't realise how suxy my work monitor was! Luckaly everything will be touched up on the home rig, so worry not, fur will be lighter!
