Wouldn't that grip cut your fingers?

CaptainChet · March 2004

good concept, but not for NS.

CoolCookieCooks · March 2004

if you badly want it modelled, your better off doing it yourself

axman · March 2004

1 thing im not a great modler and second thing if it doesnt fit in to the theme why is thier swords and stuff like that but they fit into the theme

ok compromise then..plse do a slight re-design ( make teh grip more ergonomic) and plse plse psle do a more schematic style of picture. If you want it modelled u have to give have a 3D idea of teh finished article is gonna look like.

If u fullfill the above, hell I may give it a shot :]

Mintman · March 2004

I'm working on it a bit, not really got anything in a state worth showing yet though.

Mintman · March 2004

Meh thinking about it there is something to show I suppose.

Not sure if there's a problem with the tip or if it's due to the lack of proper smoothing groups at the moment. Got the extension of the grip onto the blade and the skull to do.

axman · March 2004

that looks pretty to good could u show another view to it would help cuz im not sure id the blade is fat on the model or not and the skull is gona be a good edition.

i have made the sprites for the game

keep up the good work

Mintman · March 2004

Kablewy.

Just noticed the bulge at the top when making this render so that will need to be fixed. I imagined the blade to be made from bone/rock which is why it's pretty chunky.

axman · March 2004

o ok sounds good well see how it turns out

heres a front view i made real quick b4 mit man posted that

EDIT yea i imagined the blade to be from bone ;p

Mintman · March 2004

I think the blade as you've drawn it couldn't be made from bone. Actually, I'll make it thick as it is now and I can always scale the blade to make it thinner if you prefer it that way. Easier to do it that way round than to make it thin then try to make it fat.

Sylver · March 2004

I think it's nice, but I aint gonna use though.

Maybe the blade needs to have more natural shaped from the front view?

Mintman · March 2004

By natural do you mean getting thicker and thinner at different parts of the blade?

Mintman · March 2004

Done the whole structure in a basic form (604 polies)

Going to try skinning the skull detail, it's currently a slightly deformed sphere. If it looks crap I'll have to model the teeth in separately. Render:

axman · March 2004

alright sounds goood and it looks good so far

axman · March 2004

Question r u going to texture and animate and so foruth too?

If so that would be great

im working on a second concept a necro pistol

hehe necromancers r my favorite

Mintman · March 2004

Well like I said I'll try skinning it but I don't have any real experience at doing it. I could probably do the animations, though I've never done them before, but for the knife it will be just a case of putting this knife in in place of the default one and using the animations for that. I'll put the ms3d file up after meshing so that anyone can have a crack at skinning it.

axman · March 2004

alright then i will try to skin it although ive never done it but well seee ;p

GLFattyTheGorge · March 2004

ooo Can I try to skin, if it gets meshed ? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Mintman · March 2004

Yeah I'll start on meshing it next week because I'm pretty busy with RL stuff this weekend. Soon as that's done I'll post a ms3d file here aswell as the skinmesh for people to work on.

axman · May 2004

here the file if anyone would like to finish this that would be great.

and if u want to the pistol concept i made pls do that would would be great too.

Kitki · May 2004

Looks really cool.. I might actually use this one once it's done!

Fox_One · May 2004

Wow, looks really good, mint!
Please, please finish this model. This is one of the few things I'd <i>really</i> like to see done...
Why? Oh, I have my reasons. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

axman · May 2004

if anyone could skin mesh this then i could skin it

axman · May 2004

ok this is my first atempt at skin meshing and sinning im not even sure if i did it right

tell meh wat ya think

MalambisBZ · May 2004

Add some lighting to the skin, especially on the blade. Otherwise it will look very flat.

Chrono · May 2004

well that looks actualy pretty damn good for a first try <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />
