If you have Lightwave 8, you can always use Rounder - excellent little tool for those microbevels. Great looking model, Shawry! Love the progress being made.

This is really great, are you going to use colors of one of the main chapters or something of your own ?
Well, this had a second page, who knew  He looks liek he just left the factory, it would propably look very good with some scratches , marks from lasers and bullets etc.. Last edited by Cryptor69; 05-07-2004 at 11:46 AM. |

Looks awsome
 ... I love Robots, and i love your Robot. Good details and good textures. Maby to bright collors, maby you could make it allitle les collorfull, just lower the color or something to make it more used or something, just an idea  . Keep up the good work. I agree with jstarr976. Animation yeeeaah

Nice textures, Shawry. I remember when W40k was first released I was thinking "These things must show up for miles around on a battlefield, especially with huge banners coming out of their backs". But with that amount of firepower and when they look that good - who cares?

yep, morghen, the main front panels and leg panels are UV mapped with textures i painted in photoshop, most other things are just textured in various ways! I'm not an experienced texturer so im sure it could look a lot better than it does!
I'm still unsure of the colours, i had a bit of a play this arfternoon and the typicalrobot colour schemes just look really bland and i start to miss the bright blue!!! Here is a pic of the actual Ultramarine Dreanought from Games-Workshop:  EDIT: image doesnt seem to work when i upload it :s Last edited by Shawry; 06-07-2004 at 01:37 PM. |

You should try using procedurals. That's probably what he did aside from the logos and such.
