Mandalorian iTi Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 CheshireKat, Your Darth Maul Model is the most ****in awsome i've seen !!!! Im serious and i will download this!But I have one little suggestion....On his face. U need to drag his jaw down a little and make his jaw wider too. i took some time lookin at maul pics and on ur model his face looks too young. So just move his jaw down a bit more and make it a lil wider and it will be great!
Mandalorian iTi Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 CheshireKat, Here are some good pictures of Maul's head and a couple at the end for his clothing just in case u might need: http://dmaul.8m.com/pic40.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic44.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic52.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic58.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic60.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic75.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic77.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic78.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic76.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic62.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic65.jpg http://dmaul.8m.com/pic63.jpg
Archmv04 Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 That model looks amazing! I was wondering if you where planning to make a light saber model for his saber. Also I was wondering what your next project is going to be? Keep em coming.
CheshireKat Posted June 1, 2002 Author Posted June 1, 2002 Thanks again. I'll have an update of some sort tomorrow. I've been workin on SKinmapping him all night, but as usual, I've run into some troubles... Anyways, as far as the head shape is concerned, I'm going to tweak a few small things after the Head Skin is done. I'll get a better eye for it that way. I'm not planning on a saber. I did think about it, but the model is a big enough project, and I think a hilt that long would be trouble. I would probably clip through the players, and the Rear Blade of the Destroyer would probably be all messed up. Check back tomorrow.
Archmv04 Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 Ya Your right the Hilt of his saber is atleast 2 feet long. hmm nevermind then keep up the good work.
bugkill Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 ches, get with ventgala and ask him to give you his maul saber. go to the "saber models" thread in the modeling forum and leave your email address and he will get it to you. i've tried it out and it is excellent!!! also, since the tools that have been released includes the game code, we may be seeing it possible where bots and other model characters can have specific lightsabers for themselves (let's keep our fingers crossed). so, get with him and he will hook you up and you are doing a mighty fine job on this model.
darthmaul774 Posted June 1, 2002 Posted June 1, 2002 Um guys theres a person named Vent Gala that has already done a darth maul hilt i'll be glad to give it to you if you want but he made it. And what a surprise it looks awsome, and accurate.
CheshireKat Posted June 1, 2002 Author Posted June 1, 2002 http://www.boomspeed.com/cheshire/DarthMaulFaceStart.jpg Just a Quick Face Skin I started to adjust for stretching. It's only about 20% done. Kman and Arco: Still wrestiling with the UV's...
Ray Stantz Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Good head start and all, but I suggest making the teeth a little more yellow. You know why Dooku is a better sith, because he doesnt look like a mutated granpa like Palpatine (aka he doesnt have shriveled gray skin), his teeth arent as bad as Darth Maul's and he's actually in one piece and his whole self unlike Vader. (not saying that he wont be loosing a limb before he dies, but Vader is still alive.)
Cmdr. Antilles Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Why? Sith can't have good oral hygeine? J/K Great job, Cheshire. I'm looking forward to this one.
Mandalorian iTi Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 The head looks good for a start! really it does! ur hard work for this model will pay off. it is very impressive so far:D I hope you saw my ref. pics i listed on the second page to this thread? Well good job I am very anxious to see how this all turns out!
Pedantic Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Very nice...but you may want to make the snarl more obvious--right now, it looks like he's just happy.
KMan Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Ok Kiddies. I'm done unwrapping him. He will be coming soon....
CheshireKat Posted June 2, 2002 Author Posted June 2, 2002 Sweetness Kman! Thanks everyone. I'm a bit further on the face skin, but I went out with some friends last night, and now I feel like pOodah, so I'm not sure how much further I'll get today. As far as the snarl goes I'm gonna adjust it before he goes ingame. I realis It' looks like a cross between a snarl and a smile... Anyways it will be fixed. Thanks for the feedback.
Mandalorian iTi Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 Cheshire, just close his mouth. then he will look good! forget the teeth and just close his mouth, it will look bad as s if u do, try it.
Lime-Light Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 His mouth is fine, go make your own DM model if you want the mouth closed
Darkhold X Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 I think if you just closed the mouth slightly like this: http://www.swbooklist.com/main/tpm-maul.jpg it would look great. this site should help skining wise. especialy the boots.http://www.jedi-academy.com/maul_boots.html
iTeM Posted June 2, 2002 Posted June 2, 2002 The model looks soooo kick-ass!!! skin fast-fast and get it out! chopchop! regarding the mouth, I think it should be open, but perhaps close it just a little bit? I'm sure you'll make it look good anyhow!
CheshireKat Posted June 4, 2002 Author Posted June 4, 2002 Update??? Well, I haven't much more than words for you. Been weighting it all night and hopefully it'll be in game by the end of the week. Then it's off to finish the skin. Kman has a helluva skin going though. Arco?
