Modeling Competition #8 - Cavalry

[frostwhisper]

Dude, check the model's animations.
In the normal attack, the rider throws his spear.
There is also an alternate attack/spell anim, in which the dragon is the one making the strike.

sorry I didn't see mdx file, only screenshot

 

[Xatoga]

So... can anyone explain whats broken in my model? It shows up fine in the viewer, but apparently not in game?

 

[SuPa-]

Got this baby UV Mapped

Some parts are rather messy and I'll probably work them out

Fixed it up... Too lazy to post update xD

All your base are belong to ME

 

[Cavman]

Xatoga, it crashes WE. Dunno why, probably somthing to do with geosets. I could try and fix it up for you real quick.

 

[Elenai]

My final mesh WIP pic, before I proceed to animation, textureing, and finalization.

 

[frostwhisper]

I am anxious to see those skins, Supa and Elenai.

 

[SuPa-]

Not sure if I ever made a final render of the model itself

 

[Xatoga]

Xatoga, it crashes WE. Dunno why, probably somthing to do with geosets. I could try and fix it up for you real quick.

I'll give you a huge arse delicious cookie if you could do that for me.

 

[D a w n]

this is what ive got so far:

Base model is the koto beast.It´s some kind of a cow mount but I still have no idea what the rider should look like......and there is not much time left :/

Edit:added updated version(just have to do the rider now)

 

[Cavman]

I'll give you a huge arse delicious cookie if you could do that for me.

Ok, here it is. Even got an ingame screenshot. One thing I noticed though was that it has no tusks :/

 

[SuPa-]

Texture WIP
Once I get all the shading done, I'll start making scales

 

[Xatoga]

Yay! Thank you muchos Cavman. Here's your cookie: .)
I hope it's delicious. And here's my entry:


Jungle Troll Raptor Mage

The Raptor Mages are powerful voodoo magicians who love to bring fear into their opponents hearts. So naturally, being on a big scary dinosaur adds to that effect.

[Cavman]

> .... :3:.)
Om nom nom nom nom...

No problem Xatoga.

 

[SuPa-]

RAWR SCALES >:-]

 

[Xatoga]

Aw, your scales are better than mine...

 

[HappyTauren]

Supa, scales are teh pwn.

 

[Jaakko]

I still have no idea what the rider should look like......and there is not much time left :/

Maybe some kind of Razormane Quillboar?

 

[frostwhisper]

Do an ogre for a rider. It would suit the bull well (I think).

 

[D a w n]

Ok here is my entry:

An Ogre Warlock riding on his mighty cow beast

Edit:Scaled the rider a bit

Edit2: Some improvements on the ogre,changed the weapon and added a fitting missile

 

[frostwhisper]

Not bad at all. Though a tad messy at some places, it's quite original.

 

[Hawkwing]

Looks like one of those guys who run across the Bridge of Eldin stage in Super Smash Bros Brawl.. ^_^

 

[Gilles]

That oger is much too small! He needs to be at least twice as large.

 

[Cavman]

That ogre has one GIANT chin.

 

[Spudnik]

Yep. Make thoe ongre twice as large aand the model will look twice as good!

 

[Hawkwing]

That ogre has one GIANT chin.

Triple chin, that's all I can say.

[Kimbo]

I have no idea why that raptor doesnt even have a tail...I just hope the excuse isnt "it got chopped off in battle"

 

[Lord_T]

Lol, Wulfy, it does have a tail... it's just easy to miss >.>
.... i think..

 

[Hawkwing]

Sorry but the troll mage guy is a bit odd. He has a beard, which trolls don't usually have, and the raptor is green which makes it look like some sort of lizard.

 

[DwarfZealot]

umm.... what colour should a raptor be?

 

[HappyTauren]

http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/6444/ivoryraptor2ky.jpg
just any colour, including white. As for raptor looking lizardary, raptors, before all, ARE a kind of lizard.

 

[Hawkwing]

The only green raptor I know of is the Swift Zulian Raptor.. And it looks really bad..

 

[DwarfZealot]

wow WoW has infected everyone it's sad

 

[donut3.5]

Technically the entry list should be closed, but because I am nice and want to see as much done as possible, and I know of a couple people scrambling to get their entries done, I'm gonna wait a few days.
~~UNOFFICIAL EXTENSION~~
Dunno when to, probably when I get back from break so I can evaluate all the models. Just try to get them all finished!
--donut3.5--

 

[SuPa-]

HELL YES! Now maybe I'll have enough time to finish

 

[Lord_T]

GG?

Lord_T kisses his chances at placing goodbye

 

[Xatoga]

The troll doesnt have a beard. I modeled/skinned it off. The tail isn't visible in the shot because it was waving when the pic was taken. I don't really like how the tail worked out myself, since it was pretty much the normal mega low poly horse tail elongated and widened a bit, but thats still only about 5 polys, which aint pretty.

 

[DwarfZealot]

Ok Here is... THE BELLTOLLER

Here is my submission, complete with custom icons. I may improve the skin a bit when I submit to the resourses but its good enough for now. I cant upload anything other than an ingame shot because the anim's don't show right in the viewers, but they work flawlessly ingame. enjoy!

 

[Callahan]

DwarfZealot it a good model but the rider is kinda neglected.

 

[Rizz_Boomer]

No offence to you, DwarfZealot, but the rider is barely visible.
Besides that its a good model

 

[SuPa-]

Texture update

 

[DwarfZealot]

yo supa i think that the scales will lose their beauty ingame maybe you should make them bigger?

and yeah i know he gets neglected, but he talks in the portrait. What else should i do with him?

 

[Hawkwing]

It's not that I am infected by WoW but that WoW is the only place Raptors are shown and it is my personal opinion that green raptors look bad. But my vote wont be affected by that. Last shot I saw looked like he had a weird head but, it could have changed. Or I just wasn't really paying attention. =P

I'm sure they are all fine.

I can't see the rider DwarfZealot, but I love the model.

 

[HappyTauren]

lol supa. Lrn2Use unwrap xD You have used 20% of the texture for body, while you should use at least half of it, as it is the most important part :/ Look at kodo beast for example.

 

[Pyritie]

SuPa-, you're doing the wing wrong. It isn't a long stick with other sticks coming out at random locations. Wings are evolved forms of hands.

I know that I just didn't feel like it (i r lazy)

I'll re-do them I guess xD

 

[DwarfZealot]

i wish i had a tablet, stoopid mice.

 

[Hawkwing]

I have a tablet.. =)

A small one though. =(

 

[Elenai]

DOES THIS MEAN I HAVE TIME TO FINISH MY MODEL!

if so...YEAH!
