General Frank:

Model works ingame and performs well.

 

[kuanish]

it is good model.

 

[Velmarshal]

Good, but It could be better.

 

[Karouk]

Nice model, but I do not believe modern technology use baannets...

 

[tunerband]

Nice model! O_O

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Nice model, but I do not believe modern technology use baannets...

As I did say, this is for a Warhammer 40k mod project. If you don't know this universe, you should have a look at it: http://uk.games-workshop.com/warhammer40000/

There are both range and melee combat.

Try killing someone without knife and ammunition. You tell me is it easy or not when that guy is same size as you.

Imperial Guard Guardsmen is out! Yah!
Erm, ok, it needs a bit of improvements.

 

[Hargoth]

I think it is very good model, but if the red bits on the shoulders arnt team color then i don think red goes. I make imperial guard player as dark green... still 10/10

 

[Goreface]

Theres nothing great about this model but is good. Nice and simple and clean. Good job!

4/5

 

[Grievous1]

Looks great this model is very usefull for survial maps and another mondern warfare maps good work 4/5 because the animations.

 

[redmarine]

These emperial guards are usually idiotically sucky and can't aim. That is probably why all the other races crush them easily if they don't have any tank support at all.
Just some info you guys should know.
4/5

 

[Gyrosphinx]

nice and clean, and oooh... I love that color scheme

 

[Warhunter]

NICE!! But you must fix the head, the head shud be an bit in to the helmet... so it´s look like he has it on him not in him. 9.5/10

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Okay, some comments on the comments


1) if I do more details, the model will have too many polygons IMO (as it is already 602)
Then, IG, unless you do a very close camera shot, the unit is detailed enough with the IG "standard" camera.

2) The red thing you can see on the pauldrons are TC. I think I would have been shot if I didn't put any TC.

3) Watch the unit in the game. The warcraft tools you can find in the Hive have some sort of troubles showing animations from 3dsMax exported models. Don't know why.

4) updated the helmet as Warhunter suggested.

 

[arthasdeath]

there are some bad textures... he looks awesome from far away cam

 

[Warhunter]

it´s nicer .P

I have an queastion...
Can you make moore WH40K models?

 

[Warhunter]

and one more thing, the face, I don´t like it so much :/
It shud look like this:

 

[Karouk]

Imperial Guard Guardsmen is out! Yah!

Well killing a deer isn't so hard with a hunting knife...

 

[Geazergimli2]

Woot more Warhammer 40k models Thank you...
-GeazerGimli2

 

[I)eadnerzhul]

The face is a little bad, but the rest... you have outdone yourself. It's FLARKIN SWEET!

 

[The Curse]

As I did say, this is for a Warhammer 40k mod project.

May I ask where?

This is good. I think the texture needs more contrast though.

Any chance of us seeing a Kasrkin/Stormtrooper based off of this anytime soon?

 

[emperor_d3st]

May I ask where?

In the description
Nice model, yea, the head could use a little better texture but I think it's sweet as it is right now. 9/10
By the way, what's the status of your Warhammer project? I'm glad if it's in the making

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

By the way, what's the status of your Warhammer project? I'm glad if it's in the making

I've just started it. For sure there will be at least Imperial Guard and Space Marines. I'm thinking about Ork or/and Chaos too.

 

[wigglesworth]

very usefull! love this model good for the map im making 10/10.

 

[King Cheos]

Nice model, but I do not believe modern technology use baannets...

Another wrong thing is that I think our age is modern and we still use bayonnets just not often since charging out of your trenches in great nummbers and deaths isnt a very populear tactic anymore... I know US uses them at least. Its by good reasons, you have a knife in any case so why take away the possiblility to stike an enemy from further away with it?

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Looks more as a Japanese soldier then a Warhammer guy =]

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Update:

1) I've redone the face skin. It looks much better in my opinion.
2) Fixed the skin of the boots
3) I modified slightly the lasgun

 

[Warhunter]

even moore nicer
But the face are looking a bit funny, but you don´t need to fix that it´s ok now

 

[Insaniac69]

Hehe... I would kill to see some Ork models!! But they would be a PAIN to do.. And watch all the noobs flame and say "no luser!! itz speled orc reeetard!!!".. I'd die laughing..

 

[I)eadnerzhul]

There we go. Now it looks ALOT better!

 

[King Cheos]

Looks more as a Japanese soldier then a Warhammer guy =]

Have you ever seen a warhammer Imperial Guardsman? Clearly you havnt. Japanese soldier, keep dreaming...

 

[Zombie]

Head needs work. Make a bit more detailed face, and helmet.

 

[Callahan]

It doesn't looks like an asian anymore.

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Head needs work. Make a bit more detailed face, and helmet.

Thanks for comments to improve the model. That's nice of you, truly, but:

1) I don't think I should increase "irrelevantly" the polygons. After all, you're not going to play with close-to-the-head camera, do you?

2) Consequence of the 1) : The model has 608 polygons already, which is quite high. Ok, adding ~40-50 more polygons won't kill anybody, but this will be annoying.

3) Repeating again and again, in the game, I assure you that unless you do a close camera, you won't notice any of these details.

 

[Zombie]

adding ~40-50 more polygons won't kill anybody

like you said. A few more pollies, and it will be ok, but its your call. I like the model anyway.

 

[MACREADY]

Need attach some sound to weapon

 

[Ghost765]

hallelujah! its guardsmen! i really need these bastards

 

[Druza]

I find it useful I'm already using it.

 

[Cham[p]ion]

This is an awesome model considering it was made from scratch. The screenshot doesnt do it justice, it looks much much better in game. Awesome job! +rep!

 

[Pyramidhe@d]

hey hey! looks like everybody has been busy while i was away!!! nice guardsman Burning_Dragoon5. a lot of people are gonna be happy

 

[I)eadnerzhul]

I'm still waiting for updates on YOUR models, PyramidHe@d!

i agree. besides, with the imperials guardsman, people dont notice the tiny details because they are too busy marveling at the baneblade.
and they also die too quickly to have a good look at. just my opinion. dont get angry. i just suck with IG. (-_-")

and no update from me because i havent dont anything in the last 4 weeks. still 2 days to go b4 i do anything.

Thanks Pyramide@d. I'm glad to see someone agree with me regarding it.

 

[I)eadnerzhul]

My problem is the face. That's it. If you could give him that little mouthpiece tabletop Guardsmen have, it might fix it up a bit.

Edit: The rest is awesome. The clothing have a great level of detail, along with the Lasgun and helmet.

True, but we Imperials do have both the Baneblade and different Titans. I would really like to see a couple of regiments of Eldar stand up against that amount of firepower.

 

[Cone_Sniper]

This is good model thanks for making it

Imperial Guard rocks but it is quite weak in early game. Anyway, I agree with what you say. So just model up with the arms and legs, some facial features due to the camera angle and everything will be perfect. Of course, you aren't a full time modeller so I can't expect much.

 

[Jaijaibinx]

hey Burning Dragoon can i please remove the weapon from this model and change the texture to make it into an unarmed GDI Soldior for my command and conquer map. I will of course give full credits to u and + rep. please try to reply quickly (my clan wanted to relece it within the next few days and i go on holiday tomorrow)

 

[Baelnorn]

hmm... Nice model, but head isn't very good. 7/10
