T-51b Power Armor Unit

[Kwaliti]

Well, it's been a lengthy while since I went away from the modding scene, so I decided to make a snappy comeback with a new model, well, a model edit to be precise.

Yup, Fallout series started to digest, so I wanted to make a T-51b. Since I have little time, I scavenged the Marine model and slightly edited it. I made the helmet myself (and it still could use some improvement) and the skin as well (new tablet, w00t!). I'll have to edit the wrap a bit as well.

As for the animations, I'll think about reusing the Marine's animations, but I might as well make my own.

So, see for yourselves:

BTW I started this model today D:

 

[BlargHonk]

No u

 

[Dreknethema]

Happy birthday l0w_kwaliti!

Oh and great model man, I could never make one that looks even remotely like that because I can't make models

 

[Devine]

I don't like the boots. The rest is sick. Keep it up.

 

[Kwaliti]

The boots aren't done yet, I simply thinned them out a bit

 

[BlinkBoy]

I would suggest you to remobke the gun and any marine like parts.

Also, use custom animation instead.

 

[Wintermute]

If the colour scheme matches, it'll look great. But so far it looks like you've only worked on the chest. And oh, I recommand you not to use the marine animations, as they looks.. Really, really crappy. Try your own. I'm sure everyone will like it better

_{Release it pl0x}

 

[Jaakko]

This seems interesting. One more awesome thing would be if you made a few armor attachments for the model so that if the player picks up a heavy armor he get's some new attachment etc. I hope the attachment weapons work with this like with the konstrukt marine. The konstrukt marine has useful animations like the prone is really a good one. One thing that could be nice is an animation where the marine uses fist or a melee weapon attached to it like knife.

 

[Kwaliti]

After three hours of sleep and some snacks I decided to make another update.

 

[Hawkwing]

The mesh is great and the texture is, well, decent. The shading is a bit rough and it lacks contrast.

 

[Kwaliti]

One more update:

 

[BlargHonk]

and for reference

 

[Kwaliti]

Another update

 

[bounty hunter2]

Jeez the head looks fantastic. Good job. I don't see a bad part this model has.

 

[Masiah]

Awesome, but I think you should make the skin darker. Just for the looks.

 

[Kwaliti]

[Wintermute]

It seems a little too bright to me.

 

[Darkness34456]

As a long time fallout fan, this is absolutly amazing, and would be awsome in a fallout type map, rpg or something similar. I would love to see this in any map tho.

 

[Kwaliti]

*Update*

So, I started animating!

 

[HappyTauren]

Yay for exaggered wc3-liek animation

 

[Jaakko]

This is most likely going to be awesome. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it would at the same time have as small file size as possible so that it would be more useful for a bnet map.

 

[Wintermute]

You mean you're gonna release it? >:ddddddddd

 

[Kwaliti]

*Update*

I've been busting my head around the Walk animation. What do you think?

 

[BlargHonk]

Looks pretty good

Though make a separate animation for firing while running

 

[~Void~]

Yeah please do that

And also maybe some kind of spell animation which looks like he is throwing a grenade.

 

[Jaakko]

And prone stand, walk, fire etc. Btw is it even possible for a unit to attack while moving? I haven't seen any normal warcraft 3 unit be able to attack while moving.

 

[Kwaliti]

I'll add a walk when firing animation. I was thinking of naming it Walk Spin. It would be a burst fire animation.

As for the prone animations, I'll see what I can do.

The grenade animation is a MUST.

 

[Dreadnought[dA]]

I was expecting a Terminator model. This is great though. Might I just add that he lean just a TINY bit forward when running? Right now he looks like something is shoved up his...

Will do. He has a small tilt forward, but it isn't noticeable, so I'll increase it a bit.

Anyway, due to a (somewhat) popular demand, I threw around my mouse a couple of times and got this:

 

[Hawkwing]

It's coming along excellently.

 

[~Void~]

For the attack animation, maybe make him crouch down and aim through the sights? Because for most gunner units I find they always fire from the hip... except the rifleman

 

[Hawkwing]

Good idea, ~Void~.

You might want to change up the knees a bit. They look like shooting targets.

 

[Kwaliti]

That could be an excellent Attack - 2 animation

 

[Tauer]

Oh, I love it! Fallout is awesome.

 

[Kwaliti]

Attack - 2 (Attack - 1 still needs some work around timing):

Spell:

That's all for today folks

 

[D a w n]

that model is sooooo awesome.
I love the anims so far :>

 

[Wintermute]

Great. I think he still ought to be a little darker.

 

[Jaakko]

Is it possible to make a unit attack another unit while moving without stopping?

 

[HappyTauren]

No, but it's possible to trigger it.

 

[Darkness34456]

This is getting even more awesome by the day, now all we need to do is remake all of the creatures, recreate the capital wasteland, and we have a full recreation of fallout in warcraft. On a more serious note, this is awesome and i cant wait to see this in a map

 

[Kwaliti]

Prone Walk:

I fixed the clipping issue on the shoulder, however, the one at the crotch can't be fixed =\

 

[Hawkwing]

Wow. You're a much better animator than I am.

 

[Kwaliti]

Here's a comparison of textures. One is rusty, one is clean. Please pick which one should I use, or should I upload one separately via the Skins section:

Click

 

[Tauer]

First one is the best IMO. I like the grungy/dirty kinda look for Fallout.

 

[Jaakko]

I would prefer the first one as well.

 

[xXm0RpH3usXx]

the first one, but please make the shadin less edgy!
and i'd say going with a darker metal tone would look cool as hell...
(i know its not fallout like then, i played it aswell and think its great, too)

 

[Kwaliti]

I rustified the texture a bit (read: a lot):

I might even consider uploading three textures. Clean, rusty and extremely rusty.

 

[Masiah]

Looks better with the rust, if you ask me.

 

[Hawkwing]

I would've said the second.. but.. mmm. Not anymore. It's much more brown and actually looks somewhat rusty.

 

[Tauer]

Much better.
