Alrik's Model Gallery

Hi everybody,

since this forum seems more active to me than the sc2mapster's I am
going to show my models here on the hive, too.

I'm currently working on a balrog model for lotr-maps =)

These are some impressions of the low-poly mesh and the first sculpting layer
which will be used for normal mapping etc. I will be going deeper into detail
with this model as soon as I got a working .m3-version. But the current level
of detail should be perfectly right for the starcraft engine.

I have never finished a fully working unit for any game so far, so this is my
first serious attempt to change that Animating and rigging will take
some time I think...

I beg you to finish this model and make its filesize short since im still updating my lord of the rings map xD

Good luck finishing the model

So here's my first attempt on painting a model without using
any photographs or other external ressources. I used Mudbox
to paint and sculpt it. There are two or three errors in the
uv map I know, but they will be corrected when postediting the
texture in photoshop. Plus they are not too important in SC2...

Enjoy =)

I like the model, but I think that he should have either more contrast, or lighter textures (at certain parts), to make him look better when you add the fire (but maybe that's just me) And also the hoofs on the back are strange to me. Either way awesome work, but I get the feeling it's not finished

 

[Alrik.ger]

Not not finished at all^^ As I said my first "hand" painting. But for today I will leave it as it is Yeah I agree about brightness and contrast, but that has to be adjusted when I am going to test the fire etc. And maybe some emissive map? never used that, we'll see. There is always much to learn

Yes, an emissive map for the fire would be very necessary. And a normal map, but I don't really know how you make one. The model has great potential,. keep it up!

Now that I look form another monitor at it I see what you mean
with your contrast suggestion. I think I have to recalibrate my own
one^^
