Competition #6 - bb0x

[bb0x]

Count me in too!...

Dammit I was almost done with my low poly model (was optimizing) And then C4D decided to be funny and chrashed.
So I have to start all over again....

[andrei313]

I hate when that happens. I don't like doing the same thing twice when it comes to modeling. I hope you find the courage to do it

[bb0x]

...After the crash I came up with another concept lol

This is what I am thinking about doing now:


I am not too sure about the "magical string"...1. Because I am not sure if fantasy is allowed. 2. The low poly issue :P.

[andrei313]

That looks awsome
1. Magic is allowed so you can do this.
2. I think that a few tris in a cross with an alpha channel on the diffuse will do the trick
You have a lot of detail on the model... all that can be made from diffuse and normal map... I'm sure that this can be done with 250 tris. Looking forword to this

[bb0x]

ok heres a new version (slightly changed)


and the model with exactly 250 tri's



--edit
I am working on a high poly model right now for the normal...never done high poly models.....nor have i done any normals

--edit 2
for some reason these images look better on my LCD screen....it looks bad on this CRT :P

[andrei313]

Looks very good on my monitor

[bb0x]

I am still alive!!.....kinda..

ok i have scrapped the bow have done a big assed sword....metal texturings...i have never done....so it looks like shit right now....

I also started to read and experimented with normal mapping so this will be my first normal mapped model...if I can make it before the deadline...

i also got a Tablet yesterday...its my first one...its not a wacom tho' it a Genious pensketch......dont ask it is a4 sized and has 1024 pressing levels so i guess its ok...

anyways update tomowwooww!

Nice use of Polys! Very effiecient model yet damn right artistic and accurate!

[bb0x]
