Don't let it be SARS

We want the new model! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Archanor

Hmm..
Nice skin, but could use a whole bunch of details, maybe some scratches from alien claws or something.
also slime on his suit.. just a little suggestion from my side

Chubbieboi

how about adding the shoulder lamps and some writing or pictures on the shoulder pad

KuBaN

He removed the shoulder lamp, to reduce polies (I think), and so we can differenciate the LA and the HA marine (if and) when he releases the HA.

NecromanZer

um yeah the new skins will be good, ill have a shot at one myself working off those pics - btw - that firebat pic zer0 posted was from Starcraft : ghost

Sid

Someone should do the hands, but that would take a lot of work.

The Aplha skin is looking great, I agree with the others; darken it up a bit; maybe add a bit more detail (ie. Scratches and stuff) and there ya go.

The SC Marine always looked like HA to me =/

And maybe a higher poly one for a future release..? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

My opinion about this suit :

Details.
Update.
Coce commercial.
Lemme think... hmmmmm...
popcorn, yummy.
hmmmm..

Unleet

Update? Sure, why not? I've reshaped the shoulders and brought back the shoulder lamp. The model is now at 2002 polys (I'll make a low poly version if the request is high enough) and the skin probably won't be getting much better from me. I'll do the Omega skin tomorrow and it should be ready by the weekend.

(Some of the lines look jaggy in the pics but they’re not in the game.)

FireWire280

The skin is looking great!

My only real gripe about the skin is on the shoulder pads of the armour. At the bottom of the shoulder pads the skin and the model just cuts off, and it looks like their should be more.

I think that you should add some wear to the bottom edges of the shoulder pads.

If you did that, in my opinion, it would look much better.

Jamil

Very very awesome. Though, I don't see my **** in there <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Skin is perfect in my eyes. Anyone who thinks it's too bright or whatever, can change it themselves. Cause this one's a keeper. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Unleet

lol Don't worry Jamil some of yours is on there but I'm splitting them up between the 2 skins.

mariner

omg that is teh pwn. gj

NightCrawlerz

I love that skin! very very good job! Although white may not be the best choice for a skin in ns, Mainly because it would prevent a marine from hiding if you used this bright skin. I would suggest a dark blue or green or another color that still gives marines the ability to hide in the shadows.

Chupacabra

Can you release a green version? To go with the rest of the models in NS, instead of sticking out in the NS enviroment. That would kick ****. Looks great though.

How's the HA version going?

BTW What is the poly count of the default Marine?

NightCrawlerz

WIth the LA marine being the normal sc marine... whats the heavy gona be? A robot? golith? you couldnt reuse the same skin....

Chupacabra

He's planning on using the SC Marine as a base, then making it much more builkier, etc.

FireBat = Bulky = HA = Better

Have a look:

KuBaN

Release release release! Cmon cmon cmon pleeeeeaaasee!?

NightCrawlerz

encrypted zero that doesnt fit. usein a fire bat as ha would be dumb. a larger bulkyier marine would work i guess. but a fire bat = no
they are bulky because they use a flame thrower.

Chupacabra

Have a closer look:

<img src='http://www.blizzard.com/images/inblizz/actionfigures/firebat.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

I say base it off the Firebat in terms of bulkier armor, etc, but keep it as a HA Marine, using regular hand-held weapons.

Anyways, he said he's already started on it, so it should be cool.

KuBaN

You take things way too literally.... I'm not even gonna bother this time. I hope the HA can easily be discerned from the LA's. If you gotta stare at em all day to figure it out, the HA's kinda lose that intimidation factor, ya know?

NightCrawlerz

I CANT WIAT TO HAVE THAT HYDRA LING COMBO I WANT IT SOO BAD

Unleet

Well I was thinking of making the firebat for the HA as it is called heavy armor in SC. Also the tanks would make it easy to tell them apart...

NightCrawlerz

fire bat would be the only choice viable for a Ha if the sc marine is going to be used for the LA, IF that is. But it wouldnt make scince to hardcore sc fans mainly becase firebats dont wear that heavy armor for protection from aleins they wear it to protect from themselves. Firebats only use a flame thrower hince the name "fire"bat just tossing it in as a HA isnt right. I want everything to be right maybe some of you would rather just toss it together and call it starcraft, But the more time you spend on the little details like sticking to the storyline and such the better this will become. I am a hardcore starcraft fan and would like to see the best possible out of this "conversion".

CrouchingHamster

I reckon the standard SC marine looks "HA-size" anyway...

Everyone needs to keep in mind that you can use whatever you want as HA, or standard marine..it's pretty much a matter of renaming / reskinning models to suit your tastes..

( I don't mean skinning them from scratch, rather re-apply your chosen skins from HLMV..dead easy really..)

Colour them in yourself, it's easy, honest.

Mask out the parts you dont want to change, mess with the other bits, use HLMV to see how it looks..

If I can do it, anyone can.

coil

There's no "right" or "wrong" model for each spot... Personally, I probably would have picked the Scourge for the lerk replacement, just because it's smaller, even though it has no attack per se. If you would prefer the standard SC marine be your HA, and a ghost for your LA, then that's your choice.

Please don't attack other people's decisions; don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

KuBaN

That's IF the mesh is right, and you've got the skill

Archanor

My suggestion :

If I had skills modelling, I would make ghost model for LA, and a terran marine for HA. (just like coil's idea)

Keep up the good work!!
