Random WIP 2013+

[FireStorm_]

atlased one quikly, during breakfast:

(model by behe)

[Beherith]

aww, its so cute! very clean :)

[FireStorm_]

Wow that was quick I was still editing my post...
Glad you like it, I'll try to do another (and improve this one a tiny bit) later today.

[Beherith]

Got the rocko ingame, some peewees too:

[bobthedinosaur]

wow those look awesome. Can we get a more zoomed in shot of the new kbots?

[Beherith]

Right click+view image.

[PicassoCT]

the real miracle happens when you zoom out- distinguishable silouettes.. well done..

[FireStorm_]

Well, that would be kaiser's merit...

[bobthedinosaur]

Right click+view image.

wow. that was a lot high res then I initially thought. Those little cyclopes pewees are cute.

are these original models or made from the lego pieces?

[FireStorm_]

In essence all models are originals designs.
All the separate meshes of a model can be considered lego pieces, because we can use them as such, but they are not designed as such.

For some pieces this makes a lot of sense to do, for instance a radar dish. It is an element that a lot of units share, so why not copy it instead of remodelling the whole thing?
But once you've started doing this it is very temping to save time by enhancing other units with reusable parts. For instance a length of metal pipe. You could say this is lazy but it can help to serve another important purpose; giving an entire unit-group or faction its own look, so to speak.

..although very original looking pieces can help with that too I suppose

[Beherith]

Yes, I did forget to give credit where it is due:
The hammer, peewee, rocko and rezzer are KaiserJ's work. The texture on them Cremusses atlas, and FireStorm did the UV mapping of the peewee, the others are mapped by me.

I felt random-wip needed a picture again...
So here is one of a Maverick (wip)
Though as a concept I used a Clint

[smoth]

that looks like, I've been hit by, I've been struck by, a SMOOOTH CRIMNAL!

[FireStorm_]

Now you made me prefer it to moonwalk out of the lab

[PicassoCT]

Cleant Eastwood inspired?

[FireStorm_]

You get to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?"
Well, do ya Picasso?

[smoth]

he is trying to make it look like a poncho.

Firestorm the hat needs to look proper cowboy hat with the curve to it. In the good the bad and the ugly eatwoods hat has a slight downward curve. these flat top hats look like the sort of hat a mobster may have worn.


see the slight curves?

[PicassoCT]

Actuallly.. this screams for throw away guns.. drawing again and again

And i feel actually..

[FireStorm_]

@smoth
The poncho is right on.
I was a bit unsure about the hat though, so I'm not actually sure I'm gonna keep it. Still have to figure that out.

@Picasso
Now I'm in anguish wishing I'd known that idea before i already fleshed-out another gun system. It's kinda tempting to do it still, but I don't think I want to spent a lot more time on it...

[smoth]

I would add a slight curve to the sides. (feel free to use it if you like it).

like this:
