Alright. I'm aiming for a ww2 theme here. It's going to be a tank shell crate.
I'm still working on the textures, and as soon as they are done, I'll start working on the normal maps.

200 triangles.

More later. :P

The modeling looks good. You've used all the polys, very nice

Can we see a UV layout? The texture looks very good, even if it is still wip.

Fleistad · 05-01-2007, 10:37 AM

Sure, here you go!

It's a mess, I know.

andrei313 · 05-01-2007, 10:40 AM

Tight... Very nice use of space.

Looks great, I really like it.

Very nice work. I realy like your wood texture, nj there.
Normal map realy starts to look great, but i would emphasize the 'nail-holes' more. And maybe add some logo or text to your texture, can be very subtle, but now it's looking awfully clean...

It's nice and all, but it's clear that you just used a wood photo on the entire UV, and not choped up random bits. You know, 2 different woodboards wouldn't tile. If you just cut out and paste on another spot, it would look more realistic.

What did you use for the normal map? Crazybump?

Fleistad · 06-01-2007, 08:05 PM

Yeah. I used CrazyBump.
I find it superior to both the nVidia plug-in for Photoshop and the ATI tool.
About the textures lining up, well, I assume that you are referring mostly to the lid.
The reason the two planks are lining up is because the lid actually consisted of a single wooden board at an earlier stage of the texturing.
I later decided that if the lit were to be made out of one piece, then the two crossing planks on top of it would be pretty much useless.
Now that I think about it, I might break up all of the sides into two pieces of wood.
