KMan Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 I've decided that I'll start working on this cheerful little fellow in my free time. Maybe it's the shiny metal that piqued my curiosity. Expect model shots soon, but not that soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMan Posted September 27, 2004 Author Share Posted September 27, 2004 'A consummate industrialist, Wat Tambor was the Foreman of the Techno Union, a galactic institution concerned with technological innovation. Tambor was eager to escape from the choking bureaucracy of the Republic Senate, and readily joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He not only committed his army of battle droids to the cause, but also hosted the meeting of the Separatists minds at one of the Techno Union's droid foundries on Geonosis. As befitting a technocrat, Wat Tambor is entirely encased in machinery and is even reliant on technology to speak. His deep, resonant voice is strangely mechanical, modulated by a set of dials built into his torso. Tambor oversaw a number of advanced technology plants scattered throughout the galaxy, and many major corporations, including Baktoid Armor Workshop, Haor Chall Engineering, Republic Sienar Systems, and Kuat Systems Engineering were signatory members of the Techno Union.' Info from the Star Wars website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverhoodian Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 As to where you see him in the movies, he's the guy who tells Count Dooku in AOTC, "The Techno Union Army...*garbled sounds from suit malfunction*...is at your disposal, Count." Great idea, KMan. He's one of the more imposing prequel characters and my favorite Separatist leader (other than Count Dooku, that is ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrawn42689 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Cool. But the ridges should be more pronounced on top, judging from the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I finally found a pretty good front shot of him, so I've made changes to the top of the head and ridges. Looks better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 He is cool, but he doesn't acctually have a role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 You know what the best refference would be? An action figure. They made him into one and looks pretty nice too. And as for what he does, I believe hes the leader of the Techno Union. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusLeCoy Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I like it so far, but the eyes are the same size, the right one is supposed to be bigger. Other than that, it looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMan Posted October 28, 2004 Author Share Posted October 28, 2004 Alright, it's unwrapped now, and starting on the textures. Since the lower half of his body is mostly raven parts, I've unwrapped the others in the same manner, so there are textures for each region. Psykosith- if you're reading this, give me a jingle. I can cap him up and send him in your direction whenever you are ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMan Posted October 29, 2004 Author Share Posted October 29, 2004 I can't remember what version of max you are using. Let me know and I can send it to you in that version. I'd send it as a .3ds, but that always has problems preserving the smoothing groups. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
