Messing around with some new gib skins...

WANT.
The only thing better than insane gibbage is high-resolution insane gibbage.

uhm... How does "Antonio" have 73% health when he's a pile of gibs?

Cause he IS the gibsl. Disguised as a gib no one will shoot you.
The devils greatest trick is convincing everyone he doesn't exist.

its the red guy with the flag ..
aren't the gibs a bit big? lol

They're the standard gib models, just with a new skin.

Nice work again.
I kinda remember this. Can I has remember diz?

Yeh you can has remember diz C.Brutail =) this is a oldtimer of mine that i never seem to finnish. i posed some shots of it a while ago too iirc. Hopefully ill get it releaseable this time

I cant wait until I can map to that level of skill. I'm just bad at design is all

Might try to remake a location that I know, like Glasgow Central or something.

Very nice ! Much better lighting now. Also really good texture-work. Get it finished !

Made a texture if you guys want feel free to take it. Made in MapZone from a tutorial. I'm hoping I can learn that program to create my own textures in the future.
It comes with a normal map.

Made some more with less blood, if one would like to tile these but without so much blood.







PS. The normal map work with both of these images, and is slightly different than the above one in the preview post.

Lights just what i threw in there to see anything tbh Some day i may be able to get your level of detail in my light.. maybe Texures are leftovers from the 2048 mapping contest. i made... alost of textures for that one


aI: I like those textures, ill have a swing with em in radiant later and see how they work out. could you render one variation w/o girt/blood too?

Those are interesting, primarily because I wanted to make a map in the style of a slaughter house. Like a Strogg organ processing factory from Quake 2.

Strogg organ proccesing?

Here is the clean one without blood, if you want even cleaner, without the slight dirt let me know. However it looks too clean and weird for my taste :p





And yet again, the normal map is just a tad different, but I bet the other normal maps could work as well. I just uploaded it anyway.

@[-z-]: wow. nice pimping the wicked style. I love the color scheme and the additional logos. /me wants.

@ai: Looking good. The normal map seems a bit too flat, but i'd have to judge that ingame. MapZone is a nice little tool. I should spend some more time with it as well

Sorry for the too bright pictures, but I'm too lazy now to make new ones

Looks kinda familiar, isn't it? But something has changed...



and here too...

Ohhhhhhh fancy!

I woudn't know. I haven't played that map much, once I think and it was a long time ago. Plus I play without sky so if the change is there, then there's 0% of me noticing anything new.

Looks like there's finally some more room to move around

Some progress:

I'm confused by your screen shot, but otherwise it's looking swell.

It's a pity that DarkPlaces doesn't deal correctly with the borders of animated reflecting surfaces. This white "noise" on your second pic doesn't look very good imo. Have you thought about replacing the water with a simple mirror texture (not animated) or a semi-reflecting floor (me thinks about ths starship-floor-effect without the transparency)? I believe it could fit the theme and support the marble look you've got going on there with the floor.

And please choose a more trim-like texture for the arch in the last pic. The organic looking rock-texture there doesn't fit the architecture. Some outlines at the edges do wonder

Overall i really like the style. Nice and fresh approaches. And i know how difficult it is to create some convincing textures. That's one reason why i never really did textures on my own. The textures you made are better then everything texture-wise i ever created Can't wait to jump through this halls.

My first real modeling project--Still having trouble with the head especially. How do you guys go about it?

stromboli-
a really useful technique is to have a good front and side picture of someone's face and use them as a guide when modelling. if you take a look at this tutorial you'll see how it's done. (it's a subsurf tutorial, but it would work for low-poly too).

Zuriastrad:

Thanks for the tut and the info! They did wonders, especially for the head.

Here's my current progress.



Some...technical difficulties.


And a picture of my flexibility tests...it looks alright!


Awaiting a weapon, textures, and animations!

I'm looking forward for the model, keep up the good work!

Some...technical difficulties.

how did you do that?
