Models 'n' Stuff (The Return)

[SuPa-]

Oh hey there everyone

Just started working on an earth elemental yesterday as a warm up. Haven't done any models for WC3 in awhile. It's pretty simple (for a warmp-up's sake) and so far I'm liking it. I'm almost done with the texture.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

That model ROCKS!

 

[SuPa-]

Just about done. The TC isn't real, just what I want it to look like.

Oh and here's the wires

 

[Skycraft]

He looks STONED!

 

[anarchianbedlam]

really? because he looks rather shy to me. He needs to be a little boulder

 

[chr2]

Looks fantastic. So, you plan on making it TC?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

What a bad boy, he looks so dirty.

 

[SuPa-]

chr2, yeah, I've finished texturing him and he has TC. Here's a shot in Magos
Raging, he's just a little hard on the outside.

It still needs a little tweeking though, but it's pretty good right now

He might be a little rough on the outside, but i bet he has a heart of gold

 

[SuPa-]

Nah, he has a heart of team color.

Some different angles

*slight update on the texture

Here's a rough sketch of a nature elemental I'm going to model

And here's another rough sketch, this time of an obsidian elemental
Heavily inspired by WoW's

Loving that Rock Elemental. Imo, the 'band' things that are entirely teamcolor should instead be golden bracers with a teamcolored 'inside'(golden trim). Also, I'm looking forward to see that Nature Elemental. ^^

 

[SuPa-]

Thanks! Yeah I tried out gold earlier, didn't look too great. I updated my last post yesterday afternoon with a texture tweak. The outside of the bracers is just rock while the interior of the bracers is TC

 

[Rui]

Nice! But it looks a little weird with its hands separated from the body, are you adding some kind of effect? That'd make it way cooler.

 

[SuPa-]

Yeah! Of course it's going to have effects! Not exactly sure what to do yet though. Like what color they should be/etc.

 

[Rui]

Well, as a last resort you could make the effects teamcolored, it's possible, right? Else just white or brown, a lighter brown than his body so it doesn't look monotone.

 

[SuPa-]

Yeah I'd want them to be team colored but that isn't possible with normal particle emitters. Apparently you can do it with Particle Emitter 1s though (the kind that emit models instead of images). I might check that out. Or yeah, just make the effects brown

 

[M0rbid]

White might look good too, for a "windy" touch.

 

[shamanyouranus]

White might look good too, for a "windy" touch.

But.....it's an earth elemental. Have you not been paying any attention at all?

 

[M0rbid]

Argh, I have seen this coming....
Seriously with windy I did not mean to turn the whole concept into a wind elemental or whatever, it's was meant to stand for magic that can be considered "neutral". You could of course use brown, but well, only because it is an earth elemental it does not say it HAS to be brown. White is giving the "windy" touch of magic that is not to specified on the same time could give a nice linking touch to the different rock parts, though I think a light grey would be better than white.

 

[shamanyouranus]

Why not just have dust and pebbles and stuff falling off of it?

 

[SuPa-]

Anyway...
This one's done for now. I'm going to work on it more later and touch up on some of the animations

[SuPa-]

Bumpity bump. I started working on the nature elemental but didn't like it. So I've done a redesign of it. But anywho, in the meantime, here's this pretty little fella'.

 

[Dionesiist]

Texture needs to be sharper, but otherwise it's actually really awesome. Good job on this one. Oh, if this is for Wc3, it could benefit from having more obvious teeth. Just make them thicker.

 

[SuPa-]

Yeah it's still a WIP. Anywho, my graphics card has been constantly overheating so I need to get it replaced :/

 

[D a w n]

love the teamcolor on this one. btw: are there eyes??

 

[Vengeancekael]

Lolfeet.
Lets hope he'll be breathing fire.
