RJW_ca Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I'm working on a new revamped version of a Darth Maul model that will be weighted better, have more voice taunts, and have a moving mouth and eyes --a Darth Maul that will look more like the movie after we finish up abit more on the head like skinning it better and so on I will show different pic's --I plan on having his clothes look more cloth like (as the movie) with robed versions as well I'm now in with 3DS MAX Aaron Smith has been a GREAT HELP!! HAPSLASH and NEOMARS1 have both agree to help me by showing me their great gift of skinning I know a reworked Darth Maul will greatly be admired by the JA and JO community one of the things HAPSLASH noticed was that the tatoos were based off the promotional art for Episode I merchandise,.... he did a little fudging with the texture to make it more like it was in the movie. left pic is old and right pic is newer so far tell me what you think --anyone else who wishes to help let me know RJW_ca "OUT" RJW_ca@hotmail.com or RJW_ca@rogers.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaladienJedi Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Now by reweighting, do you mean jka skeleton? if so... awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3rr0r Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 glad to see hap is helping you out! now, if only he'd release his dooku reskin. a little reference. and if you were so inclined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJW_ca Posted December 18, 2003 Author Share Posted December 18, 2003 Actually yes!!! I thought about doing a Darth Maul without his shirt showing his tatoos I was thinking maybe if someone could help me have a catagory for his species where people could pic Darth Maul with his robe on, off or showing his tatoos--like head, torso, legs ect... yes I am using the JA skeleton I want to have a model out for JA and JO with a good veriety of speaking, grunts, and action sounds T3rr0r thanks those pic's help tp show that the black surrounding the middle horn on Darth Maul's head should maybe be alittle longer --maybe ALARIS can let me use that nice hilt I saw of his!? --a way to bring up his round black flying droid would be kool!! more pic's will come!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO GIVE ME YOUR FEEDBACK!!! --this is all for you guys man THANK YOU RJW_ca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowy Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 wow thats a purdy model! his species is zabrak and perhaps you could work with aaron smith and put his eeth koth on there with a few variants aswell... that would be awesome!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teancum Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 WOW! The model looks great! This is just what JA needs. Only thing I would ask is some higher res skins for the clothes. They don't look that good in JA. Will this model be compatable with skins for the old model? That way I can just add a face or two and have different variants when it's done.

RJW_ca Posted December 18, 2003 Author Share Posted December 18, 2003 Actually that pic is still alittle rough meaning I think HAPSLASH gave the clothes a grey texture because right now it is the face we are focusing on --we want to get the model dead on right. this is the colour of clothing I am going for I think Darth Maul will probably have a closed mouth so this way it can be animated but don't worry he will still cringe his teath in the animation (the mouth would have to be remodelled for this to happen) so the old model won't be able to be used RJW_ca "OUT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaladienJedi Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Thats cool. I remember the JK2 version having a few weighting bugs with the arms... Are the arms gonna look more attached in the JA version? That would be cool. Asside from the new look on the face, the ja skeleton will top it off!

Are the arms gonna look more attached in the JA version? yeah, something was really misaligned with the other version... like the arm shortened and the fingers/hand lengthened... something.

EDIT: Changed the picture attached. It's now a 1280x1024 collage of Maul pics, robed and not. 56kers beware. EDIT (again): One small request.. could you also include a version with his mouth CLOSED?

Tesla Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I'm confused, is this a re-model of the original or just a re-skin ? (Looks like it from the picture in the first post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaSiN_HeCk Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 Nice work so far, even though I haven't really seen anything new, but hey! Jka bones and moving parts! I have to say I like the Older Maul's bright red tattos rather than the darker red you have on it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninja Posted December 21, 2003 Share Posted December 21, 2003 hey this is great. i had a question. RJW i noticed u said something about moving eyes and mouth. none of the other models in the game do this in multiplayer how will this model work? i noticed the single players models do this. so will this be a single player model also? i dont know how to post pictures in here can someone help please? i have both front and back pictures of what maul looks like with no shirt on. i wanna upload a pic from my computer but editing wont let me. i saw a part in the editing saying insert a picture. so i figuered maybe typing in for example C:\my art files\star wars\maulpic.jpg that it would work but nothing.

The Raitenks Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 nice work, just as usual, hapslash! looks really like him, but you should make the red less bright/colorful, to make it look more like red *skin*, and not a mask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
