Modeling Competition #10 - Elementals

[Traxamillion]

burning dragoon you forget to put the blueglow.blp in the .rar it cant be opened in magos

 

[HappyTauren]

Yeah, burnin', you gotta change those paths to in-gamez.

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Thought I did it..... nevermind, it's fixed. It is using 2 IG textures, I just forgot to change the pathes.

 

[FrIkY]

And HERE is my final submission: Ice Elemental!
If you have any feedback, don't be shy ^^

It's 600 polies (as it's an inferno-like model), It has TC (which can be quite hard to see...... but the inferno doesn't have such a thing), and has plenty of animations:
4 stands, 1 stand ready
2 attacks, 1 attack slam
1 spell, 1 spell slam
1 birth, 1 death
1 walk

Hope you will like it

Nice job Burning_Dragoon5! It looks very good and the animations are really great, especially the Attack Slam and Spell Channel ^^

5/5 - great job!

 

[Linaze]

@Burning_Dragoon5's submission, looks good. Sort of like an Ice Infernal or something. Could be useful for most icy environments, I like the the animations, especially Channel. Good work man.

 

[BrotherDog]

This looking better?
And like I said, the bottom of the legs will be all cracks and such, as well as have particles. There will also be particles on the eyes and tentacles

Sweeet. ;;D

Are going to have any part of it TeamColored? Just curious

Hmm... Yes, well I'll see what I can do with animations. I just wana get basic ones done first, as I am pressed for time. But I changed the head.

Yeah, like Pyramidhe@d said. ;;D

That reminds me so much of Harmattan from the Dreaming Dark Trilogy a Warforged combined with a Living Blade Barrier spell. That would rock.

 

[frostwhisper]

SuPa don't do team color 'cause SuPa don't like war3.

 

[SuPa-]

fo tha shizzle

 

[FamousPker49]

Meh, I'm out.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Nah, you still got plenty of time! *cough* 3? days *cough*

Just make more of a "body" for it, (like [parts of the Iron Golem statue things], then put your blades all over it!

 

[AirHead]

I'm out, but good luck to all staying.

 

[frostwhisper]

TDR, jigrael, Illidan... come ooooooon....

 

[Linaze]

frosty, isn't jigrael practically done already? Though I still agree, TDR & Illidan, come on for fuck sake, you got a thousand geeks who wants to drowl over your models, let them!

 

[Kyrbi0]

Check here; he's almost finished.

 

[TDR]

shit I don't think I can make it...I'm way too lazy to make the walk animation.

 

[HappyTauren]

holy bbq... i kill u. srs business.

 

[SuPa-]

Nooby Jigrael >.<
He went WAY overkill with the effects

TDR, sorry to hear that

 

[Kyrbi0]

@Supa:
Meh, it'll probably look good in-game.

TDR:
Umm... Cannibalize from... anything?

 

[TDR]

heh I guess I'll just have to sleep early now and start early in the morning tomorrow (today actually...) 'cause I have some other shit to do too.

 

[Gausslander]

Just release it on Wc3campaigns when you finish it, the contest is unimportant. The competition is great, and if you're going to just whip together a walk animation in a morning it's not worth it IMO.

 

[Hawkwing]

Don't push yourself to finish some silly little contest. You already have enough rep and reward icons.

 

[Gausslander]

Um... no I mean it isn't going to be his best quality product if he just rushes it. Wouldn't you prefer it if he does his best work instead of a shitty HT Low Poly Footman?

 

[Hawkwing]

Did I ever say that's not what you meant? Anyways, yes. I totally agree with you.

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Argh, I'm not even sure if I can finish my Radioactive Blob in time (did some college tasks).
If I fail to do that however, I still will consider finishing the model when I have the time.

 

[jigrael]

shit I don't think I can make it...I'm way too lazy to make the walk animation.

I understand you man. Sometimes its just too hard to sit and animate (or model, or texture,...or study lol)

Anyway, Im done with the model. Ill make some sfx now, but Ill submit the model now, check models section.

@SuPa- you are probably right, havent tested in game, but at WE looks good.

EDit: FIxed problem with war3 model editor

 

[D a w n]

You still have to add an ingame screenshot jirael

 

[jigrael]

You still have to add an ingame screenshot jirael

Ty, scshot n paths added

 

[HappyTauren]

jig, it would've been even more awesome if you added some lighting nodes, and animate them so that they change ambient intensity, and it would like flash. Now, THAT would've been awesome.

 

[jigrael]

Holy shit. Looks AWESOME. Ty +rep.
edit2:well, I dont know why but the light gave me some errors, I had to remove it.

Updating model

edit: Updated, also I fixed the problem with wa3 model editor

 

[Callahan]

epileptic!

 

[HappyTauren]

jig, if you still have the old model with lighting node on, I could try to fix it for you. Basically, with lighting nodes it is all about trial and error, cause those things tend to fuck up things a lot of times if not done correctly (mind you, saving lighting node data multiple times in war3modeleditor tends to fag lighting nodes up, so they cover the whole map, don't work, or crash the game).

 

[TDR]

Don't push yourself to finish some silly little contest. You already have enough rep and reward icons.

What the heck man, I ain't doing this for rep and icons...I never finish shit on time and it's been a problem for me for a long time, and I really want to get over that, that's why I want to finish before the deadline. Anyway, the winner will be jigrael; that model it's too damn win!

 

[Kyrbi0]

Maybe not. With two votes, I'd definitely be going Jigrael + TDR, as I'm sure many others would. But enough would also go Supa + TDR (or Jigrael + Supa) to make it interesting, methinks.

Ty but Ill do it myself. Btw thats exactly the problem, when I import the model it lights the whole map, wich is very anoying.

Come on TDR those animations you did were sweet, to animate you dont need much time, its just that you need to go for it.

 

[kewlthis]

I still think its hard to anounce winner, there are tons of quality models. You shouldnt forget:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/796932-post118.html

and ilidans model was super sweet too.

Obviously you don't understand that I was being sarcastic.

 

[Serbianbeast]

I've just noticed this thread and I read it's history (some time-consuming business) and I really dig Jig's model, while I really hope Supa, TDR and IllidanEvilX will finish theirs since they really, really rock. I know I'm forgetting some models I liked aswell, but these 3 are best imo. keep up the good work (especially you TDR, don't you dare to give up!!!!)

Edit: I forgot exclamation marks

 

[Illidan(Evil)X]

Fire Elemental

Texture paths:

FireDragonElemental.blp
FireDragonElemental_Glow.blp
FireSparks.blp
BlackSmoke1.blp

Edit: Fixed invalid portrait texture paths.

 

[Kyrbi0]

So very, very schweet.

For the record, if we got 4 votes in the poll, you would get one of mine. (so far.)

 

[HappyTauren]

illidan, portrait paths are invalid, fix it

 

[Serbianbeast]

Illidan, your model is really really good, it's only drawback is missing attack alternate anim. One more thing... you might want to change how he holds his legs while flying because this way he seems like he's not used to flying

 

[Illidan(Evil)X]

illidan, portrait paths are invalid, fix it

Damn. Forgot to changed those. Well, well.. it's updated now. Thanks for reporting.

[Devine]
