oddjob: A-Team Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 I figured I would tackle another classic trilogy character. This time, my favorite action figure as a kid: Han in Hoth Gear.(the old Kenner Han in Hoth gear had the BEST hand for holding guns and a holster that would actually hold his pistol. Heh) I will probably end up doing his head similarly to the currnet hasbro action figure with the hood pushed down and just the hat and goggles, but I am not sure. At any rate, I have a decent start on his head: http://home.attbi.com/~oddjob1138/img/han_head.jpg I haven't really done much work on his head in general, just his face really. It's pretty raw still. I may perhaps model his blaster pistol as well to replace the bryar, but as to that, I will have to wait and see.
nomad Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 Nice! There is a good resemblence in that rough model! And please, if you seriously want to, make Han's pistol. I am amazed that no one has made that yet. I personally do not care for the bryar pistol, but the blastech... now that's a pistol I also added a taunt for a Han Solo skin a while ago. I don't know if you'll go with a particular taunt for the Hoth costume (as there may be a good one there), but if not, I used the "Hokey religions and ancient superstitions are no match for a good blaster at you side." quote for the taunt. Anyway... a bit early for that kind of talk. God luck on this one! -nomad
fuzzrox Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 thank you oddjob, i've been waiting for a Han Solo model. i'm already using your other jk2 models, Leia is great (wish you'd make a slave girl skin) looking forward to Han. keep up the great work.
inbredyokel Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 I might be looking ahead a bit too much, but maybe you could also model Han's head complete without the hat, and tack it onto Lando's body. That way we could have 2 models for the price of one (sort of...), Han in hoth gear and regular ANH/ROTJ Han. Anyway, looks great so far. For a rough model that already has quite a resemblance.
-[MotU]-Lyger|=- Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 yay a han solo modle, cant wait man, hurry hurry hurry
Woodrodius Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 Just a suggestion, but for a taunt I'd use the "I'll see you in hell!" said right before he went looking for Luke on his Taun Taun,
t3rr0r Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 nice work so far, oddjob. /me crosses fingers for a multi-purpose han solo
oddjob: A-Team Posted July 29, 2002 Author Posted July 29, 2002 Ok, I am going to make a head with the hat and goggles and hood pushed back like the new aciton figure, and one with just his head and hair, no hat.
Hanch Saode Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 You must often hear people claim their love to you This is just briliant! Looking forward!! Keep up the good work m8

HEYY GreaT idea for the leia SOMEONE SHOULD REALLY DO ONE............. G/J so far!
oddjob: A-Team Posted July 30, 2002 Author Posted July 30, 2002 I think I might make the face fully animatable. We shall see though. It might be a bit too time consuming.
inbredyokel Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 Awsome, glad you're thinking of doing the full head. We really, really need more classic Star Wars characters. With all this prequel stuff lately they're just not getting the attention they deserve.
Eklin Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 YOu should definitely make the hood and goggles (if you use them) removeable so that you don't have to walk around desert maps with a big parka on. lol
§ith Lord Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 Finally someone is making my favorite character! It looks just like him already, and you JUST STARTED! I can't wait to see the rest of him
{tojo} Qui-Gon Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 hi, i just seen this thread (kind of stuped of me ) but i was taughtt to skin by THE GREAT NeoMars!! anyways if you need help in texturing him, just ask
oddjob: A-Team Posted July 30, 2002 Author Posted July 30, 2002 Ok, here's an update. I worked on his head/hair a bit and finished the Hoth hat. Have a look: http://home.attbi.com/~oddjob1138/img/han_hat.jpg
inbredyokel Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 It may very well be the angle of the pic on the right(and the fact that its still WIP), but the face looks a little off from the front. It looks like the mouth and nose might be a bit wide. http://movieweb.com/movie/starwars/co2.jpg
AKPiggott Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 Your Leia model was a fantastic likeness Oddjob, and this Han model seems to be heading in the same direction. Nice one!
Arco Posted July 30, 2002 Posted July 30, 2002 hey not bad dude. I love han solo and mr ford even more so. i am moret han willing to do a skin for it (i already did a han skin for a default jk2 model) But yeah cool stuff surely has han in it. Arco:ewok:
oddjob: A-Team Posted July 31, 2002 Author Posted July 31, 2002 I'll double check the nose and mouth. They might be a bit too wide but they are proportioned to a more frontal pic of Harrison. Gonna start on the body next. I'll update when I can.
Hanch Saode Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 Wow....looking damn god so far...!!! Keep it up!
12thMonkey Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 looking great so far and can't wait to see the rest of the Hoth gear.
