Released ME3 N7 Valiant Model

[Inyri]

Side by side. No better reference pics than this!



Don't get excited. I'm ADD. I'll probably never finish it.

Rollin' rollin' rollin'...

That method looks awesome, can't wait to see how it turns out =3

[Inyri]

I was totally tempted to stream myself modeling so people could watch my process until I realized (a) my bitraate sucks, and (2) it slows my system down to a crawl and makes it hard to... y'know... actually model.

SILLY SMILEY FACES

[Inyri]

 

I feel like it's far enough along for a real render. The stock is a pain...

[Inyri]

I have now made it look more like an actual gun, rather than a fancy javelin (no pun intended, Mass Effect 3 players).

 

 

EDIT

 

I felt like doing a 'pretty' render to prep for when it's 'finished'. I'll stop typing in 'code' now.

 

Makes a huge difference, doesn't it?

i liek pictars

[Inyri]

Pfft it's a sniper rifle! Didn't work on it at all yesterday (played table-top Pandemic instead and the world got raped 4 times) but I'll have some time to make some progress today!

[Almightygir]

lol, you bum.

[Link]

Gasp. It's not a shotgun anymore.

 

I thought the same XD

[Botdra]

Looks gorgeous!

[Inyri]

So I finished the scope.

 

 

I tried to be really good, but still as many polies as a player model lol. I give up on being efficient -- I just want PURDY 8)

 

So here's the reference I'm working from, for easier comparison:

 

 

As you can see I'm missing some details on the scope (I haven't just skipped them) as well as the body, but it's come along pretty well so far. Any crits? (More reference pics in the spoilers below).

xD

 

Gun is looking awesome =P

[Inyri]

For all that is holy, I have changed the thread title to actually describe what the thread is about. (Srs bsns.)

 

I did not really do any modeling today, but I made a nice render with some mock vertex shading that also shows some updates from yesterday evening.

 

[Botdra]

Looks great, can't wait to see it textured.

[MagSul]

That looks absolutely superb, well done!

 

*Insert stamp of approval*

[eezstreet]

Looking good. Can't wait to see this ingame.

[MaceMadunusus]

I concur, looks good

[Inyri]

I hate UV mapping so much... it's gonna delay things as I work up the inspiration to do it haha. I did, though, go ahead and rip the texture with texmod so that when I paint my own texture I'll have a very good reference for the minor details (sometimes a screenshot just doesn't cut it for that). Still have to finish a few minor details on the gun, as well as add the last few bits to the scope.

[Milamber]

Ever tried "headus uvlayout" inyri? I use it for all my uv mapping. I really used to hate it until I came across it

[Inyri]

Looks like a pelt mapper. I might look into it. UV mapping it's hard and not really *that* time consuming. It's just boring. =_=

[Milamber]

It got tools for hard surface models too, I haven't found anything it can't deal with yet.

 

And yeah it's the boring part I feel this one takes away cause it makes the process so fast usually.

[Inyri]

Tiny little update. Didn't have time for much of this lately in the quest for 1000 downloads. 8)

 

[MagSul]

Spectacular! Well done.

[The One and Only]

Looking pretty good. What do you want with regards to weapon effects?
