new project: build the jedi starfighter delta 7 aethersprite
this is my favourite ship in all star wars model so I'll try to do it the best I can, lot of detail. begining: september 5th first part: collect a lot of pictures ... I couldn't find as much as i hoped but I think its enought, so it seems I'll have to imagine some parts. I'm constructing some curves to help myself in modeling and to define its shape I would paste a screenshot but i dont know why i cant, i have some problems with the pc and i just cant. :confused: if i can solve it ill post the images here, one of the blueprints I'm using |
if somebody knows how the hell to render curves using maya software,hardware or mental ray, please tell me.:headbang:
|
Hey there :)
Looks like a cool spaceship to model. Looking forward to seeing it's progress..... As for rendering curves, you can't render curves. :( Best way to do it is a screen capture until you have some surfaces. If you still can't come right with a screen capture do a google search for some screen capturing programs. :) Mills :) |

added more detail to the cockpit door and a top view render
|
That looks really good! All NURBS?
|
no, almost nothing is nurbs, just the engines, r4's head and the cockpit, I mean the windshield
|
What are all those curves for then?! :confused:
|
they are useful as a guide so u dont have to be switching between the diferent ortographic views
I use them too because if the reference photos arent completely right placed, or well drawed i can do that to define the shape, so i dont have to think too much when im modeling, and i just use the single reference of the curves (u can see them direcly in the 3d space and dont have to model in ortographic view) if i have i doubt just follow the shape of the curves i have modelled before, they are the judge because if i have doubts modeling them my mind gets scratched, and i hate that;) |

most impressive (queue darth vader breathing here)....
that is extremely good and fast! :) |
How the @#$%& did I miss this page? Anyway, Awsome model man, awsome! I wish you could write a TUT on modeling using curves as a guide.
|
thanks man but THEY ARENT CURVES
and btw if i can think a good character to make for this month challenge i think this project will be frozen for some time |
