Liam Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 After picking away at Kanan the past month and a half I decided just to take a quick break for a day or so and have some fun designing and getting used to the pipeline for Jedi Academy before I move back onto Kanan. Spent the day so...roughly 6/7 hours on this in total I had gotten alot further along but yeah ...Dont forget to save kids! I designed the helmet mostly from my mind I used the original art for the Storm trooper as a big inspiration and while I'm far from done as you can tell I'm starting to like it. I should have it in the game and ready for download by...Okay I'm going to say Wednesday latest as i need to to get a move on and finish my Kanan project. Any ideas/changes post them up, cheers!

Lancelot Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 Looks like a cross between the Shoretrooper and the First Order Stormtrooper. Awesome!This could not only be good replacement for the Stormtroopers, but also for the Swamptrooper. Stormtrooper? Swamptrooper? Liam and Circa like this

Liam Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 Hey peeps! Sorry for late response/release I'm working on the helmet at the moment getting the main parts sorted before I add in all the little gizmo's. Have to clean up some normal map issues that happens during the baking of such a low poly mesh (756 tri aiming for abit lower maybe 450/500). Sorry I did not get it sent out for Wednesday like I said kinda fell asleep after work/gym but should be up on the site soon . I'm probably going to just lay on top of a storm-trooper body just so people who want to use it can have a guide on proportions. Turning out to be a really educational experience getting to grips with this process as I usually just use sketchfab for my stuff but delighted people might get to use rather than just rotate around it in a viewer for a change.

Love them designs never seen them before but love them sharp lines/tactical look. I hope to get some interesting results for you guys.If I had more time/experience I would do the full suit and armor guns like that.Only thing I dont like is the little fin on the helmet in my eyes it starts looking like a baseball cap with not much room to look up/down with eyes.but who knows maybe soon I'll take on a cool challenge like that as I get faster/better.

Noodle Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 Would it be possible for you to also release this as a .md3 file so we can use it as a resource for map creators?

dark_apprentice Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 Why didn't you made it before 2015 so Lucasfim could use your design for the new stormtroopers in the sequel trilogy instead of the Apple design of iStormtrooper :D
AshuraDX Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 give it a proper handmade retopo instead of auto decimation to get rid of some wierd projections in your bakes.I'd also do a retopo of the helmet with added control loops for Subdivision Hard surface modeling, this will give you much cleaner edges and helps avoid the clayie, smudged look at the backside edges of the helmet. clearly visible in this screenshot from your SP 2d view Langerd likes this
Psyk0Sith Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 Also...keep your UV's as one piece as much as possible and do a retopo with beveled edges, not razor sharp. AshuraDX and Langerd like this
Lancelot Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 any news about this model? The last reply is from almost two years ago and the creator was last online in September 2017. Don't expect any response from the creator, at least not soon. Jeff likes this

Every now and then I think about the possibility that someone in the community could drop dead out of nowhere and there'd be no way for us to find out. As macabre as it sounds, there may be some truth behind that. Not that something serious has happened to him, but I assume that he simply prefered his personal life over modding. And as a recent example in another topic shows,it's important to choose personal life over anything. Personally, I don't see people here as "content makers" that work 24/7 on a project. We're not talking about machines after all. Many aren't aware that actual people are behind those projects. Whatever happened to Liam, I hope he's alive and well, facing the ups and downs we all have in our lives. And if he feels the need to return to the community, then so be it.
