DRedshot's Models (+ New Models) - DRedshot - 07-15-2011

Other people are sharing their creations, so I've decided to do the same. This thread was originally to showcase my first models, but I'm going to recycle it and use it for all my models!

Shelves: Contains two models, one has two textures.

Spoiler below!

A tip for the floating shelf - sometimes the wall type doesn't look right for the shelf, an example is the Castlebase wall. this is because of the bump mapping, the wall texture 'moves' behind the shelf, so it looks unnatural. A trick i have learned is to experiment. In my CS I have placed Lever_Wall_Mounts behind the shelf, and now it looks like it has been screwed onto the wall, rather than just stuck there Smile

Fence pack: contains three fences and a welder

Spoiler below!

The picture doesn't show you the two other fence pieces or the welder on it's own, but they are in the same style as the one in the picture. Also, I know there is already a fence in the Zimmerman Objects, but it is a full circle of fence. If you want straight fences, feel free to use these instead Smile

Furniture Drawer thing...

Spoiler below!

You might have to tweak the size in LevelEditor because for some reason I get problems if I scale models in ModelEditor - The same goes for all my models!

Well, for a first, it's pretty good. Keep it up!

RE: First model - yasar11732 - 07-15-2011

They look pretty decent!

RE: First model - DRedshot - 07-15-2011

thanks for the encouragement, i will try to make something more challenging next time, and i will spend a bit of time on it, like a drawer or cupboard

RE: First model - Danny Boy - 07-15-2011

not bad at all Big Grin

even for first try!

RE: First model - Streetboat - 07-15-2011

You should just keep improving the same model instead of starting new ones. Get more experience by trying the finer details Smile

Examples include rounded corners, warps in the wood, wear and tear on the corners and so on.

RE: First model - DRedshot - 07-15-2011

thanks for the feedback streetboat, later today I might do a couple of improvements, such as smoothing the corners and little chips in the wood. I wouldn't know where to start with warps in the wood, would I need to make a new texture?
Also, when you make a mesh, do you make the full mesh first, and then add detail, or do you make the detail as you go along?
Also one more question. How do you know how big to make the mesh in maya? my shelf is about twice the size it should be? do you import a template mesh from the game or something else??

RE: First model - yasar11732 - 07-15-2011

This is obviously that way to go about it but, I make a building long cup in blender and size it in model editor Smile

The more you make models the more you start to feel how big it should look in your 3d program I guess.

RE: First model - Tenno - 07-15-2011

That's your first model? Nice Smile

RE: First model - plutomaniac - 07-15-2011

if you want, upload it in this topic. Its always nice to see new models. I'm thinking of using it at Unbirth mod if you like.

Keep up the good work! Smile
