New General Grievous model (updated Feb 26 2006)

[olofmoleman]

I originally made a General Grievous out of the Illidan model, and released it on internet, but people wanted a version with morph anims and four arms, wich mine didn't have, so Rao Dao Zao and me decided to make a second version, I enhanced the skin a bit, and Rdz started on the anims, but because of the importer/exporter, the anims RDz made were deformed and stuff, making it very hard for RDZ to make good anims that fitted Grievous, and after months we agreed the we needed a bette model, a scratch made one, so, I made one, and I'm also re-doing most of the skin, I'll only recycle the face and lightsabers. so here is a preview of what's coming...

Edit: RDZ has given up on animating the model, and TDR is now the animator.

they ARE .jpg, but the pics are on wc3c, I linked them here, maybe you have to be a member to see them, I dunno, but anyway, I'll put them also on photobucket so every one can see them.

Edit: They should work for every one now.

But, where are the other two arms?

Otherwise, the model looks great. As Werewulf said, I can't wait to see the finished product.

 

[olofmoleman]

this model has four arms, they are simply connected, if you've seen the movie you'll know what I mean

 

[DeadDogNoGoWoof]

i like it. cant wait to see it in action.

 

[imported_THE_END]

def

Yah this model is action is basically going to be pretty badass, and I cant wait to see this animated

 

[olofmoleman]

It may take a while before this model will be finished, because RDZ started just a few days ago with animating it, and it's quite a complex model...

 

[olofmoleman]

Updated the first post, a change of animators.

 

[Sparkie]

WOW

This is probably the best custom made model I've ever seen. COOL

 

[Elvorith]

IMPRESSIVE

If you see General Grievous in film, and olofmoleman's model, this is simply amazing, can´t wait when you´ve got him finished...

Just a little question, in film General Grievous uses his four swords at once, do you add an animation of that ?
Good Luck and keep going

-Elvorith

 

[olofmoleman]

Reread the posts again, yes he has four arms and four lightsabers.
And an update on when it will be finished...
The plan is that it should be finished somewhere this summer, about time too, cause it's been almost a year since RDZ started animating the new grievous, but half a year later I made a new mesh and RDZ gave up the animating on it, and TDR accepted animating the Grievous model.

STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT II= good game with good grievous model

http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swbattlefrontii/indexFlash.html

I'll try to make some ingame screenshoots for you, it's a very good model. (He only uses the 4 arms attacking, standing have only 2)

Good work

 

[olofmoleman]

I don't need any more refferance, thanks
If I need something I'll ask for it.

And the mesh of Grievous is finished anyway, he only needs anims.

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

Good job olof, simply a wonderful model. I'm hoping to see the anims very soon.

 

[Kimbo]

who is workin on the anims now? TDR still doin it?

 

[olofmoleman]

Yes, TDR is still animating it, because he was busy with exams and stuff he didn't have much time for anything else, so Grievous will probably be finished sometime this summer.

 

[Kimbo]

ah, okay, cool.
well i cant wait! hope nothin wrong goes bad,like if TDR dies.

 

[Burning_Dragoon5]

ah, okay, cool.
well i cant wait! hope nothin wrong goes bad,like if TDR dies.

hey, don't say such a thing

 

[Kimbo]

hey, its the truth...

 

[Moagrim_of_Draenor]

Why, u plannin' on killing him or something? lol

Anyweay...Nice model, as good as the rest of yours .

 

[Emperor Ing]

your signature says "coming this summer". Olof, its mid-fall. is it even finished yet? :?

 

[Nightmare]

Don't get your hopes up Emperor, even if it is finished, Olof may never publicly release it.

 

[Mecheon]

Hey, he said summer. Its still Spring over here in Australia

As for the model, its been being animated for months. You reckon you're pissy? Olof's very unhappy

 

[Kimbo]

yeah..if your an active wc3c member..then you would DEFINITLY know whats goin on with the GG model between olof and TDR :X

 

[Gausslander]

This is getting confusing, so this is an X? Jpg? Whatchamacalot? Get me a "what the hell?" dictionary please.

 

[olofmoleman]

Don't get your hopes up Emperor, even if it is finished, Olof may never publicly release it.

If you knew me, then you would know I always release my models to public. And waht would be the use of a new version of Grievous when no one would be able to use it?

your signature says "coming this summer". Olof, its mid-fall. is it even finished yet?

TDR has been lazy and hasn't finished the animations after almost a year.
Have patience
