I think the general idea here is that the clip/handle needs to be worked on just a bit more... btw love the stock, looks so much better.

Hey, how long have you been modeling?

jks, if you want my crappy, but animated brute, I could give it to you.

Its got a decent skeleton, but since I made it in about 3 hours without even looking at a real brute, the mesh isn't worth much. So you want it for this map, like a dead scenery thing or character(you'd have to fix the mesh)?

Lol, why would I want your brute... when I get good at animation Im gonna do one of MC and a brute dancing, like a "you got served" thing.

Ok, think very weird shapes, cobbled up to form a brute. The helmet is funny, head is just a deformed circle, no hands, no feet, done in under 4 hours without even looking at a picture of a real brute, I think it looks OK.

But thats only cuz I rushed it, and I have school towmarrow with tons of homework I haven't done, and its 9:23 PM here.

If actually had the tools and time, I could put together a very beautiful brute. Given the conditions, I think it is a good rig.

I'd be modeling and animating like crazy if only I actually had, like, a tool that does something.

But I'm learning Direct-X Scene Management which, FYI, is the method used by Bungie, Valve, Pixar, and pretty much any other cinematics department on the world, to create ACTUAL cinematics. Its a lot harder than doing it in 3Ds Max, because it consists of 80% code.

jks, I know my rig ain't worth shit, but its good prograss when I had to start from scratch. And you didn't answer my original question; how long have you been modeling?

hello everyone. Sorry that this is my first post here. I've been doing a hell of alot of work. With over 2 maps to work on, and plenty of weapons to tag, it's gonna be very busy for me.

i came up with the plasma shotgun when i first started modeling weapons. I often tried to make covie snipers, shotguns, & rocket type things. I don't give a hoot if you believe me or not.

Oh I wouldnt call myself a modeller quite yet, you could say Ive been learning for the past week, along with Photoshop. But its pretty easy to pick up.

DarkBrute · Post by **DarkBrute** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 9:12 pm

Well, atleast you have the time. I got so much school stuff, it is literally piled on my desk. Can't wait until summer time.

Anyway, so you have been modeling for like a week and already you can make a brute and master cheif dancing? (Like model them starting with a sphere?)

And you use 3ds Max, right? Well, my trial for it expired so I'm screwed.

jks · Post by **jks** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 9:18 pm

No, I said when I get better Im gonna do a you got served thing.

CMDR Reservoir · Post by **CMDR Reservoir** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 9:57 pm

Okay. I have finished the Ion Blaster. Please let me know what you think.

DarkBrute · Post by **DarkBrute** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 10:55 pm

looks like a dragon's head. You should probably try to visulize how this thing would be held by its creator or user.

^^ exactly....When holding it the back bit would go into MC arm I bet

You mean the shock rifle?

Looks pretty good, but you need some smoothing. and a few easy fixes. Back 'fin' is much to large. etc.

but other than that its great

Yeah sorry about the rough job. It was like 1:30 AM when I finished it up so I wan not in the best of conditions to do much of anything. But I fixed it now. I added some bulk and some area adjustments. It looks way better than the first.

DarkBrute · Post by **DarkBrute** » Sat Mar 05, 2005 8:51 am

Actually, I reccomend either making it a cannon to go on MC's shoulder, or make it needler-ish and bend the spiky part forward and add a bottom part.

RDST · Post by **RDST** » Sat Mar 05, 2005 9:00 am

same here like it could be a replacement to the fuely
