This is an important asset for FoF, as most levels will need such prop to get a proper Old West look. The artist who wants to help us with this stagecoach will be invited to our private testing. Hope this'll encourage you

Looks like a fun model. I'd like a crack at it. You can check out my work here The Works of Angel Trudeau

Question:
Is this a Wells Fargo coach or just the same style?
LODs?
Deadline?

[RYell]

Hi Anime7Angel, just checked your portfolio and you have some seriously awesome stuff there, including some western related works. So if you want to try with this one well, it's all yours

This was planned as a genuine Wells Fargo stagecoach, however I have no special interest in the brand, if the style is similar that also could work. There are requested 2 LODs, as indicated in the original post. Deadline is a bit tight right now if we want to include it in the first public release of our mod, shouldn't be more than 3 weeks. If that's too soon for you then it would be included in future patches, however it's better if can be added from the beginning.

[Anime7Angel]

Sounds good. I'll get to work on it tonight.

Switched title to In Progress No more applications will be accepted.

Okay, great, I'm eager to see how comes this one

[Anime7Angel]

Ok. here's the low poly Version I modeled this weekend. Its 2298 polys.

[RYell]

Thanks for the preview, looks pretty good for 2200 polys. Wheels probably have more polys than I'd spend there, however it's your model, but don't go over 2500tris for the low poly version plz. My only crit is those wheels, seem wider than in the references, specially behind. I also would like to get the door fully open if possible, now tops with the wheel before it should.

[Anime7Angel]

Ok here's the 3k and 4k models. The highest one is 3701 polys and the lower one is 3037. I hopefully adjusted the wheels enough. Do they still look to thick?

Before I start texturing, a few questions to clarify:
Do you want it colored the same as the references (red, black, yellow) or would you like it in different colors?
Lighting colors? if any...
Do you want shadows included in the texture?
Any modeling changes?

I'll start texturing this week and hopefully have it done by end of next weekend. Is that sufficient time?
