NeoMarz1 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Well recently I have started working on a real fiberglass Vader Costume... my resource files started to really accumulate, and I thought that with all the good research I've done, maybe I could put it to good use for a character model. This should prove to be the most accurate Vader model to date. I have actually sculpted most of Vader's armor with fiberglass resins and carved mold bases with my bare hands. I have a deep knowledge of all the components from my costume project (which has been going on for about a month). I know there are very good Vader models already out, but I think you'll find this to be very accurate. I'm now rounding out a small team to finish this. I have talked to Psyko, and I am waiting to see if he's up for this. At any rate anyone following this thread, should go over to my site and check out the screenshot! I may need sounds, or importing help. http://www.geocities.com/neomarz1@sbcglobal.net/
*<JO>*Exlan,PL Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 Wow, Marz that model is amazing! Im a big fan of yours and I think this will be another great addition to the JKA community. If you want I can get sounds for Vader.
RJW_ca Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 I'd love to help you out with your Vader model sounds or anything you need please contact me on MSN RJW_ca@hotmail.com I can show you what I also have for JA RJW_ca

Well whoever wants this gig, needs to start compiling the sound files in a temporary pk3.. We can test em out when the time comes. I would like to have the scewed up breathing (from return of the jedi) when vader has his helmet off, that may be a hard one to find, but.... Thanks for the offer, It looks like Psyko may help. Check back with you later. Mars out
*<JO>*Exlan,PL Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 heh, already got most of the sounds so far
minilogoguy18 Posted February 5, 2005 Posted February 5, 2005 i figured out a while ago how to make him breathe all the time but never could choose which vader model to do it to but this one is the best. and if you need some help on compiling i can do it no problem. but that is only if you want cause its your model.
MadCow1989 Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 the detail is just awesome the model rocks only thing is that the face kinda look Young http://darthvader.clarence.com/archive/images/DarthVader.jpg for example hes rimpled eyes are a lil closed etc

<|EJK|>Twingo Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 wow, nice vader model...hope you release it soon

Old. This Anakin is somewhere in between. Yes Vader did lose his hair, because the "Dark Side" has sort of deteriated his living body... I think thats the reasoning for the life support system. By making this model I kind of satisfy both the older fans and the newer fans. This is more like Vader in his 30's.... Mars out!
Miko Reglia Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 This looks sweet, and hopefully it'll come out just in time before Episode III.
mergatroid Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 The life support is because he got into a scrap with Obi and came out a little worse off then he came in;) .

One he never hardly finishes nothing he gets to do. On other notes glad to see you back, you should do a General Greivious model !
Antizac Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 Originally posted by InsaneSith More like he lost his hair. Well, actually - Christensen shaved his head, Anakin lost his hair. same difference. Beautiful work, Marz! =)
NeoMarz1 Posted February 8, 2005 Author Posted February 8, 2005 All is going well, I just tweaked the model (it was off a little), and I have sent it out to Psyko. Mars out
NeoMarz1 Posted February 8, 2005 Author Posted February 8, 2005 It appears that Psyko has already imported to game... we had some technical issues that need to be worked out. Psyko is a master at getting things done.... It's kind of funny when other models take months, you get someone like Psyko to pump it out, it takes just a couple hours. A bit of warning, this model will be a bit demanding on resources... I'll test it, and let you know what you can expect. Mars out!
Zappa_0 Posted February 8, 2005 Posted February 8, 2005 Awesome, so any other models in the works mars?
NeoMarz1 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Posted February 9, 2005 I'm making two vehicle models. The Viper and Cylon raider from Battlestar Galactica! By the way... I just play tested the "Alpha" Version of the Vader model ingame! Psyko has done a great job! I'm trying to get some shaders to work, so the armor will shine. Having some trouble though. Mars out
Zappa_0 Posted February 9, 2005 Posted February 9, 2005 Ah cool, um you wouldnt do a General Grevious model for us would you? You know a movie version.
