Random WIP 2006-2011

It looks awesome, especially for how low-poly it is.

[SpikedHelmet]

spiked..... what no rivets? no bevels? you can add a lot more polies on that thing.

10k tris so far

[Hobo Joe]

Some random remodels, they are pretty shitty cause I am bad at thinking of greebles.








Tell me how much I suck and how to make them better.

Stuff like rivets can be added via normal map easily. Just because you can waste polys, doesn't mean that you should.

Spiked: last one is T-10?

[Beherith]

Hobo: uninspired, too much smooth button and random creases
Try not to have the originials side by side when remaking, work from memory on how you think it should look.

[Gota]

Well i dont know about technical stuff but your models look very "sharp" which is IMO great.
They look slim and realistic as oppose to blocky and toy like.
I love the HLT ,imo its perfect except it's support "feet".

[SirArtturi]

Yea, I love the current concept of hlt aswell. So, If you remodell it, try to be loyal to basic concept as much as possible. It only needs some polishing.

Indeed, the lower area of the turret is its weakest point. It could have slightly bigger support feets imo.

Well, sticking very close to the originals was intentional. I want them to be immediately identifiable as the same buildings, just without the limitations that lower poly had on them. Having said that though I agree they are very uninspired, they all look barren, everything I tried to make them more detailed or busy ended up looking terrible, so that's why I posted.

@Gota and SirArtturi: Thanks, I'll try to make some changes from your comments.

[PicassoCT]

Laug now, but if he luas a little prog that allows to minecraft vehicles, this board will be his and followers alone.

[maackey]

@MElvinVM: those look really awesome. The thing that sticks out the most would be the back of the long battleship looks really barren. Little guns look strange on that huge expanse of flatness. Perhaps adding a missile launcher or some other big weapon would be better.

[jeykey]

@MElvinVM:
those would perfectly fit for ZK?!

[PicassoCT]

In EvolutionRTS, features assimilate you.

[KaiserJ]

ahhh. the borg. the final interesting thing to come from star trek :D

i realize this texture still needs work, some of the blocks need to have their textures shifted over and stuff... for sure i used the L-shaped silver bracket tile way too much; what i wonder is if i should change the tone of the blocks for different levels of platform, so that it's easier for the eye to pick out heights?


going to be lots and lots of features on this one... the theme will be a shipping/logistics yard

specular / normals will defenitely help, but im wary of starting with them before i get a final diffuse texture
