lol... (coder joke... nothing special... <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif'><!--endemo--> ) anyways, this is the first human model i've ever started on.
Its coming out very well right now... Umm... Maybe not very fitting for NS, but who knows <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
<b><i>The basic Story</i></b>
<i>These strange creatures landed somewhere on the earth, back in 2061. First people was afraid. Then they studied them... They seemed friendly enough, so a couple of scientists welcomed them to us earthly humans, and into one of our colonies, just as if they were foreign human guests... Then... Something strange happened...
They started to mix in in our human colonies, around the world, and suddently the whole world was flooded with these halfly monstrous creatures. They... Just started to fit in, just as they always had been there.
Then us humans decided to make those "Zarbids*" work for their food, just as well as their possibility to stay here on the earth... They became "super-soldiers"... </i>
<i><b>To be Continiued...</b></i>
<i>*Zarbids = Halfly humans</i>
YaY, finally finished (wit the the prologue)... BTW: the story was made in about 2 mins... Maybe i'll correct the grammar tomorrow, and continiue on the story... But not now! Now i just gotta sleep... Oh, almost forgot <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

Going to replace marines I take it?
Lets do some math:
--------------------------------------
<i>Current PC= <b>550</b> </i>
<i>Duplicate= <b>550</b> </i>
<i>Arms= <b>250 + 250</b> </i>
<i>Head= <b>400</b> </i>
<i>Others= <b>250 - 300</b> </i>
--------------------------------------
<i>Final PC= <b>2300 or so...</b> </i>
Is that much? I just want to know... I have seen models released here
(Starcraft lerk... Cant remember the name) at about 2400 or so... Soo...
Is that really so much? 2300 PC i mean... Just asking...
[edit]:
Forgot to tell this... These creatures doesn't got private-parts... Thats why (with those small "panties")
<b>::EDIT:: Wait wait... he's also got some wristbands ::EDIT::</b>
<b>::EDIT II:: I'd skin him in some sort of bodysuit, you can do that with the skin and not have to redo what you've done already ::EDIT II::</b>
then make the aliens creatures from the same planet but they are intended of killing them thats why they left and came to eath
Good idea with the bodysuit... But... I can't skin yet... Dunno how to skinmesh...
<i>@|Owen| & SKB: </i>
Both good ideas... I'll think about it...

I think those are some very optimistic estimations. The arms look like they are going to be more detailed than the legs. Factor in hands and if you want to do fingers, which you probably might, you're looking at 500 per arm.
Go ahead and keep working on it, don't let me stop you. I'm just trying to be helpful. I used to use this modelling technique and I didn't like it, because it is just too inefficient. You're going to have a model in the end anyway, and sure you can use it in game just the same.

This model / creature is invented ONLY by me & my friend.... UNDERSTOOD?<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
did any1 say it was... i think not, we jus made suggestions. so remove the chip from your shoulder and olook at the facts. 1.) no matter how alien this guy is he has to wear clothes 2.) DBZ <i>style</i> armor might work well to give him the proper look. 3.) if u dont like our suggestions then just dont pay attention to them. but we know what the ppl like... cuz we are the ppl
I also had a headache... Maybe that'll explain a bit...

Do you guys want to have his mouth moveing when talking? (Mic-Talk...)
And should he have a belt?
<i>belt = 1900 + 200 polies
mic-talk = dunno... 50 polies? 100?
Final= 2150 - 2200 polies</i>
What about you, Psycho-Kinetic Hyper-Geek? Or Burncycle (are you danish???)...? Or... Come on... Pleeease? I also cant skinmesh yet so if you have the time (and the skills, the model is, as i see it, very non-skinning-friendly...) for this model, then just ask for the model (PM), and i'll give it to you...
Im warning you all, the model was not originally made for a game, so, as i said earlier, its very hi-polied...

waiting for his lollypop, but i am going to bed soon...
And i cant check the page tomorrow...
(at least in my thoughts its like that...),
so i cant just show you a pic, and then get suggestions on where to shave polies of, then shave em off and lastly release a perfect model... It's quite more complex....
The thing i could need (or really wish for) is an experienced modeler, which has the skills (time?) to do the "shaving" of the model... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
I think you've got a great eye for this modelling thing, nerdie. The model looks great, but maybe you should look into low poly modelling techniques. Either looking for tips online, or just thinking about it yourself. I know ollj posted some tips somewhere in these forums, maybe you should dig it up.
