Pedantic Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Sorry to nitpick, but you might wanna taper the sleeves as they open a little.
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 ah much better but you do need to taper the sleeves just a bit, if you feel like adding stuff to his belt you can add that strange brown thing in his belt and this silverish square next to it.
Klorel Posted May 28, 2002 Author Posted May 28, 2002 you mean make the sleeve openings not as baggy? or just make them get less baggy as the sleeve goes towards the hands
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 to taper is the gradual lessening of width in a long object.
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 I can't really see the difference from the last pic you posted and this one, but if you look that the picture http://www.vengeance-unlimited.org/Jedi%20Outcast/Episode%20II/Obi-Wan/Hi-resolution_Mace_Windu.jpg you can see how the sleeve width gradually shortens as it goes to his body. In your model the sleeves seems to stay the same width.
BradFu Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Quote Originally posted by Klorel this what you mean? Other direction, actually. They should get slightly less baggy as they go toward the shoulder. The wrist openings should be the most baggy part of the sleeve. Looking good, though! One thing that might make it more seem more bulky is to make the neck a little thicker. BradFu!
Klorel Posted May 28, 2002 Author Posted May 28, 2002 Mace Windu: thicker neck, retapered baggy sleeves: and if anyone knows how to get this model into modview linked to some .tga's so i can start skinning that would be great. also i dont think there is any skeleton information in the file when i converted to .md3... so i may need some help on that too. does anyone know of any good tutorials on this? or has anyone done this before? please, don't hold back, bestow your knowledge upon me
The Rel)ee(V)eR Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Ok now it is pretty much perfect, but ONE more thing... I think the cloth on the shoulders should go out more...kind of hard to describe, look at that ref pic a few posts up to see what i mean...
Royal Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Nice model. I'd like to see him with a cloak mesh that can be on or off dependinf on what skin you want to use. -Royal
Klorel Posted May 28, 2002 Author Posted May 28, 2002 a full body cloak would be a little too ambitious for me right now, especially since i dont have softimage, but when I get more experience i may put out a cloaked version. here is the newest pic, I played with the tabards on the shoulder a bit, i think this is looking done. just asking again, does anyone think i should model the pouches on the belt, or would that look fine as a skin? well, anyways, heres the pic:
Mr. Data Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Definately do the pouches so it is as authentic to the real Mace as possible Data
Klorel Posted May 28, 2002 Author Posted May 28, 2002 the preview8 pic has been fixed, i accidentally, changed one of my ealier models... so i fixed the correct model and screenshoted him... retry the link... also i still need to add the pouch(es)
Klorel Posted May 28, 2002 Author Posted May 28, 2002 heres the newest pic... i think its done... any comments?
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Nice job, yes i also think you are done with the modeling job. Now you just need to skin him. Good work!
adillon Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 SKIN HIM - SKIN HIM - SKIN HIM!! seriously, though, very impressive model you got there. and i agree with you and Oobedoob Benobi, i think the model is nailed down now. it's time to make him really look like the jedi master that he is. can't wait to use him in some purple-saber, dueling action. dunno if it was asked before ... any idea on taunts/sounds you plan to use? keep us posted on the finishing touches, and definitely keep up the great work!
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Ah yes adillon is right we need to think about a taunt for mace. anyone have suggestions?
adillon Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 in doing a preliminary search for episode 2 multimedia, there doesn't seem to be a whole helluva lot out there of mr. windu. however, if somebody had a "copy" of ep2, i'm sure we could find something that's perfect. hmmm, if only somebody had a copy ...
Luuke Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 what about "this party is over". you can take it from one of the trailors and it would make a good taunt.
AKPiggott Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 I have the "This Party's Over" taunt... I recorded it when I was making my own Mace skin a while back... e-mail me if you want it...
Oobedoob Benobi Posted May 28, 2002 Posted May 28, 2002 Ah good idea because most of the time trailors don't have much or any backround sound.
BradFu Posted May 29, 2002 Posted May 29, 2002 Yep, stick a fork in him, he's done! Looks great! Can't wait to see him skinned! Now that you've finished this model, you can use the body for other Jedi! Just swap the head (and hands of necessary) and you can make endless Jedi models! And I agree, there's no question, "This Party's Over" has to be the taunt BradFu!
Pedantic Posted May 29, 2002 Posted May 29, 2002 Looks good, but his head looks a wee bit too big for his body.
