Pakundo your Master Chief seems a washed out. The colors seem faded.

Are they? I never noticed that...
But I'll get to it.

Are you using a specular map?

Working on recreating the Morning Dawn Scene. Rough draft at the moment. The lights are just to give the render a bit more color. Yes, I know my MA5C is to big...

Rigged him up the other day, need to make a spec and alpha for him

. Then I can work on getting a shader together for him and my MA5C so they actually look pretty.

Is that the actual Halo 3 Chief model? If not, could've fooled me.

Also, I believe you meant "Emotion".

It is the Halo 3 [Beta] model.
Also, why not just use the game's specular?

Tural is right, It is the Beta Model.

As for the games Specular, since the bitmaps I received were in a .jpg form the Specular was lost...

So now I have to figure out how to make my own, it will be a first

You didn't get the Material bitmap? It functions as a multipurpose, with the RGB channels being each a different function.

Don't believe I did Tural... All I got was the Diffuse map which you see applied and the Bump Map which isn't applied yet.

I think the lighting is looking pretty good so far.

You saved it with "Smooting" turned up in the settings box.

Why were my posts deleted? (Not complaining, just don't want to make the same mistake twice).

Im makeing a model so i can use it in 3ds max as a normal map. What do you guys think of this?

Looks like you just discovered Zbrush's Projection Master and slapped an alpha all over that Warthog.

It doesn't look good, nor does the alpha you chose in any way represent metal. Try using a very subtle Zintensity and using more of a scratchy type of alpha, instead of a scaly/skin one.

I said i was going to make a normal map out of it.
