hansmoleman Posted December 28, 2002 Posted December 28, 2002 Ive enjoyed a nice long rest from modeling and now by request have started a model of Gimli from LOTR. You can find pics on my site http://hansmoleman.cjb.net . As youll see its only the begining but I have a feeling things will move fast with this week being winter break and all. Anyway, post you comments here, unfortunately I'll be leaving in like for the weekend in like 30 mins so I wont be able to see what you've posted until monday, but ill look forward to reading any ideas that might have accumulated by that time.

Shadyz Posted January 6, 2003 Posted January 6, 2003 Great Work!, I was the origional Request guy for this model. It will be integrated in my Battle at Helms Deep Mod..Also got someone doing legolas..Kepp uop the good work Hansmoleman!
hansmoleman Posted January 9, 2003 Author Posted January 9, 2003 new Gimli shots on my site, you can see I have finished the arms and will probably get somekind of head going this weekend. what do yall think? on a side note although i was planning to do the skin myself if anyone else wants to give it a try send me an e-mail or something and ill see what i can do for you.
Admiral_Ackbar8 Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 great! its awesome! ive always admired your work (i liked the watto and moleman)
Araegon Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 good job on the gimli and legolas models. if you'd like to join the LOTR TC, we'd be very greatful for your help, considering we only have 1 character modeler, and he really wants some help with the fellowship models. as the only models hes working on right now are the Orcs and Sauron. heres a link to the LOTR TC homepage Linky the page hasn't been updated in a while as there have been no major updates other than my weapons, and those you can see on the forums. and again, good job!
hansmoleman Posted February 21, 2003 Author Posted February 21, 2003 i know this project thread is pretty much dead, and the project was too up until about a week ago when i actually realized im still doing this model. if anyone still cares i posted some new pictures on my site. finished the head, unfortunately im using a modified kyle katarn hair style but that will soon change as im adding a helm and probably redoing the hair as well. so check it out and tell me what you think. edit: almost forgot, i am getting ready to skin this guy, if any expereinced skinners would like to help me with that it would be greatly appreciated.
Hellfire Jedi Posted February 21, 2003 Posted February 21, 2003 OHHH That looks WONDERFUL! Thanks for the update Hans.
hansmoleman Posted February 22, 2003 Author Posted February 22, 2003 ok now the helmet's done and you can check it out on my site. from the pics there its kind of hard to get a real idea of what it looks like but im hoping once the model is skinned, which is what im gonna do now, it will look much better.
Dark Jawa Posted February 22, 2003 Posted February 22, 2003 yaaaay, im happy you are back , looks very good :cool:
Khier Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 Woohoo! another LOTR model in the works, the Watto model was great, and this looks good, too, keep them coming, hansmoelman
Hekx Posted February 23, 2003 Posted February 23, 2003 Looks good on overall apperance. (Gotta love that facial expression.) The only problem I noticed is the depth of his head being a little large. If I remember Gimli right, it should be about 70/ 80% of it's current width back-to-front. Other than that, great work.
Altus_Thrawn Posted March 2, 2003 Posted March 2, 2003 Is the WIP still underway? I would love a Gimli model!
hansmoleman Posted March 2, 2003 Author Posted March 2, 2003 yeah, im still working on it. today i finished the uvmapping and im weighing it basically as i type. hopefully ill get throw some unskinned screenshots to you all soon but till then help me with this error which occurs then i try to assimilate it: -------- C:\jk2\GameData\base\models\players\gimli\model.car -------- ( Build trigger: "c:\jk2\gamedata\base\models\players\gimli\model.glm" missing ) entering c:\jk2\gamedata\base\models\players\gimli\model.car (90 degree skewing OFF) Loading GLA "models/players/_humanoid/_humanoid.gla"...17278 frames Grabbed 1 files with 17278 frames Processing 'c:/jk2/gamedata/base/models/players/gimli/root.XSI' XSI import failed, code = 12 (file 'c:/jk2/gamedata/base/models/players/gimli/ro ot.XSI') ( Press any Key ... ) ive never had this error before..or maybe i have but dont remember the solution. either way i need someones help for this one. one last word ill need to start putting together some beta testers for Gimli. just a couple will be needed so they can posts screenshots (so i dont have to) and give me tips.
Hellfire Jedi Posted July 3, 2003 Posted July 3, 2003 UPDATE! Yes, I've got in contact with Hansmoleman (finally, jeez). He has promised me if someone skins it, he will FINISH the model COMPLETLY.
Lord Glorfindel Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 Quote Originally posted by Tycooner How do you skin anyway? Extract assets0.pk3 (At least the Player part of it) and when you extract it, go to the very root of the directory player, and then find a model you want to skin, and then read this tutorial OT Really looking forward to this model, keep up the good work
Crowy Posted July 6, 2003 Posted July 6, 2003 has hans considered asking some skinners like jp-30 or inbredyokel??? they seem to be excellent at what they do
