{wip} Starcraft Marine Model

Tresth · April 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">new model replacement coming!</div> Hi there, my first post in this forum
Well I was quite bored today and I began a StarCraft Marine model. Looks like it turned good, and I think of finishing and compiling it for NS as a marine replacement (or maybe HA? and a Ghost operative as the light armored one and this marine for HA?)

Anyway, it's done in 3dsmax 5, in a few hours today, and is around 1300 polies.
Some peeps in the chatroom told me the groin is weird

I still think that once the skin will be applyed it'll look semi decent, or I may arrange it or do something about it.

C&C welcome !

Well make it big enough to be a HA <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

I don't like the groin thingie. I find it disturbing. And those odd joysticks :S

But hey, good model anyway.

Phymosis · April 2003

really pretty <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'> !

Hum I think its a good model for HA replacement. Ghost is perfect for Light marine <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Looks good so far. The groin plate does look a little odd though, maybe it'll blend in more with arms and a skin?

enf0rcer · April 2003

i love it.. but i dont love those ball things just a bove his waist and i dont like the nut holder <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'> .. it makes me jealous its so big. As for the ball things at his shoulder those actually come from a power pack thing on his back. They stretch around from the top of a box on his back.

Archanor · April 2003

poor terran marine.... someone chewed his arms off <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'>

but its still a great model <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

LockNLoaded · April 2003

wow another SC marine.

Rico · April 2003

More models are always welcome good job.

Tresth · April 2003

All the ball things are actually lamps =/
Working on the arms right now, making them fit the model correcly, then i'll arrange his wang.

coil · April 2003

To be a broken record... try and keep the poly counts on the reasonable side. (: The original HA is 1211, and the light marine is 1135.

It seems to me you could afford to lose a little detail in the shoulder pads, lamps, and calves... this really looks great, though!

Chupacabra · April 2003

It would be great if you managed to keep it low poly, for those of use who don't have up-to-date computers.

Tresth · April 2003

Rmmmmm, bad polycount prediction, it tops at 3000 polies lol
I wonder how my 500mhz will survive it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>
Guess it'll be suspended a few days for poly reducage <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

enf0rcer · April 2003

well post ur progress please <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Tresth · April 2003

<a href='http://mapage.noos.fr/paul.nicol/marine.jpg' target='_blank'>PROGRESS</a>
Here, I deleted all visual enhancements (lamps etc) to get to 2700 polies ( 500 polies deleted)
I just realised arms are horrible, i'll rework them as i delete polies.

Tresth · April 2003

ok, new update <b><u><i>1952</u></i></b> polies instead of 3200, but now it looks quite plain =/
I hope the skin will arrange it
I can decrease the polycount even more by unifying all the fingers, but i dunno =/

<a href='http://mapage.noos.fr/paul.nicol/marine2.jpg' target='_blank'>Har</a>

New arms also
Rar, G'night, Tired.

Mendasp · April 2003

plain? plain? PLAIN?

That looks so, so... *drool* orgasmic

I like how the head area is "sunk" into the main armor as it is like in the movies unlike Unleets model which has the helmet sticking out.

Also I think the shoulder pads should be slightly bigger, then you'll have a quality model

Renegade · April 2003

Release a high poly version as well. My mighty PC can handle it! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

FrickenMoron · April 2003

Your PC might be able to but HL won't

Jedisar · April 2003

I was the one who said I liked the wang plate, thank you very much. A Soldier has to protect HIS soldier.

Gordon · April 2003

Humm, I like it!.

Tresth · April 2003

Hmm, can't make it better =/ 1952 polies.
If my memory doesn't fail me, the hydralisk fade model is around 2500 polies, and I can have around 5+ on screen without lagging on my 500mhz, so I think this marine will be ok.
I began meshing it, but i'll need someone to help me with the skin itself, since i can't make a skin even to save my life <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

I'll post progress asap

Sid · April 2003

Is it me, or is his arms a little bit on the longish side? Other than that, this model = secks, with a wolf. on an aircraft carrier. in Mar's atmostphere...

And I gotta lay off the coffee.

IcELoRD-2010 · April 2003

I cant see the pics... can som1 pose em here? just a day or so, and then delete them! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

LockNLoaded · April 2003

dang- now i dont know which of the 2 sc marine models to choose from <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'>

KuBaN · April 2003

both! 1 la and 1 ha? can always rename em.

space_is_mine · April 2003

oh that is one hot model...I will <b>keep it clean</b>. Nah, but seriously that model looks great.

Hope the progress on it will be slightly quicker than the one on unleets Marine =)
