I wish I could do visors like you.

Started modelling a level a few weeks ago.

Not even close to done, and the clay render does kill the detail, but I guess its better than nothing

And some simple wall thing, not going to blow many polys on here since itll be rather far from the playing area in where its going.

Also hot spartan.

I remember last time I posted something, Veegie sent me a message saying "You do stuff?". I hope this achieves the same effect. Been quite a while since I rendered, but whatever. This was for a thing on another site, textures were specified as "not important" in the final result, and it was more about the idea of the piece. I'll just quote the post.

Tural wrote:About two and a half hours to get models and textures, set up materials, rig marine, make some custom decorators (Seatbelt, light, etc), pose everything, and render the scene. Didn't want to spend a lot of time on it, just wanted to have an entry. Background clouds were added in Photoshop, as every time I tried to render cloud effects with Afterburn, Max crashed. I don't know if that's disallowed or not, it's not specified. The fire was rendered in Afterburn, but it looked really, really terrible rendered in the scene, and it drove up the render time massively, so I rendered it separately in similar lighting conditions and put it behind the doorway, where the light source is and the fire was planned to be. 'Tis also my first render in, by my estimate, over a year.

Gotcha

I'm satisfied with the result given the minimal time put into it. Not a lot of revisions, once I set it up I stuck with it. There's a couple notable errors, but I'm very lazy.

He does stuff on things.

I think the visor could look better.

Not bad though ;p

EDIT: Also I'd think if the Marine is hanging by one hand like that, he wouldnt be hanging to the side of the masterchief, but would be directly under him as it would be more of a strain on him to hold himself to the right of the chief with one hand... Might just be me though.

I need trep visors.

Also, Johnson's side is pressed against the metal platform.

No, the basic laws of physics state that an object should hang by its centre of gravity (or something like that) unless acted upon by another force (the backwards RAM force as the pelican is flying through the air, as if the air is flying backwards). So he should be hanging more backwards and to the left.

Maybe it's sitting still. :3

Philly · Post by **Philly** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 4:17 pm

Then that marine is very careless. :3

He did it for dramatic effect.

Tural, can you make it so the fire behind master chief looks like it behind him. Right now it looks like MC is on fire :\.

Aumaan Anubis · Post by **Aumaan Anubis** » Sat Aug 02, 2008 8:47 pm

Yeah, the fire, and maybe, I don't know, that other marine just looks like he be chillin.'

Pretty cool, though. But yeah, work on the visor.
