Bulk build thread

mikala · July 13th, 2011, 08:05 PM

Hey there. Long time no thread.
Thought I'd make a thread to contain anything I attempt to build.
The meshes themselves will in the end tell you what the object is supposed to be. Hopefully the thread will be of interest to some.
Here we go.

Nice start on the objects. I have no idea what they are or what the final object is supposed to be but I'm definitely interested.

mikala · July 13th, 2011, 11:10 PM

Thanks. Hopefully I'll keep the curiosity peaked.

evil_genius_180 · July 13th, 2011, 11:13 PM

I can't speak for anybody else but I'll be watching.

gmd3d · July 14th, 2011, 03:40 AM

I am watching too......

Hi guys

mikala · July 14th, 2011, 10:40 PM

Thanks peoples!
A bit more.

evil_genius_180 · July 14th, 2011, 11:17 PM

Nice bits. I like how it's slowly coming together.

gmd3d · July 15th, 2011, 01:39 AM

cool

mikala · September 2nd, 2011, 05:07 PM

Giving the Sculptris Beta a try.
This is what came out after a couple hours.

evil_genius_180 · September 4th, 2011, 10:27 AM

Wow, dude, that looks sweet.

I've never been able to get the hang of Sculptris. All of my crap done in it looked stupid.

mikala · September 4th, 2011, 11:20 AM

Thanks.
Are you using a tablet to work in it? If not I can completely understand as the controls are very clunky with a mouse.
If you are using a tablet try turning on the "lazy" mouse option on the interface. It smooths down your strokes to something a bit more tolerable.

evil_genius_180 · September 4th, 2011, 06:53 PM

I don't have a tablet. Though, it does make sense that it would make it easier to work with, given how the controls are.

That thing makes me remember a drydock...

gmd3d · September 6th, 2011, 01:21 AM

never tried Sculptris.... looks great whatever it is

mikala · September 6th, 2011, 11:09 PM

Taking it into Topogun now.
Then the rest of the body parts will be made along with smaller metal details.

evil_genius_180 · September 6th, 2011, 11:57 PM

What's Topogun? (besides a misspelling of the title of a 1986 movie about Navy pilots who went to a school of the same name

)

mikala · September 6th, 2011, 11:58 PM

Software to retopologize geometry.

mikala · September 7th, 2011, 06:06 PM

Back into Lightwave now.

gmd3d · September 8th, 2011, 01:13 AM

looks great .. who is this character anyway ?

mikala · September 8th, 2011, 08:57 AM

An evil alien race on the tv show Stargate Universe.

gmd3d · September 8th, 2011, 09:03 AM

Oh . must have missed that one

mikala · September 8th, 2011, 09:21 AM

Season 1 episode 11...."Space"

evil_genius_180 · September 8th, 2011, 09:47 AM

I think I saw that guy once. He was working in a convenience store...

Seriously, that's some great work. Do you have a picture of the alien from the TV series?

evil_genius_180 · September 8th, 2011, 09:51 PM

Wow, that's creepy and cool looking. Thanks for posting the link.

mikala · September 15th, 2011, 09:27 PM

A bit more and the start of something else as well.

gmd3d · September 16th, 2011, 02:17 AM

mikala · September 16th, 2011, 07:33 AM

Predator skull

evil_genius_180 · September 16th, 2011, 10:06 AM

Dang, I was going to answer that one.

I love that Predator skull, that's sick. Great work. The other thingy is looking good so far also.
