Amoeba Vs. Joopson!
Here is the thread, we have one week to conceptualize and model a futuristic battle-machine!
this ends on Tuesday the 8th! -Andy ill get started soon, hopefully today ;) |
Just to make shure, what kind of battle machine are we doing?
You mean ground-type battle machines aswell, right? (Things like anti-grav tanks, mechs, and other things like that) :confused: |
any kind of battle machine, its pretty open ended. Im actually doing a ground-based one aswell, so yes.
|
Sweet! I thought the battle arena had curled up and died!
It's about time we saw some action around here! Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out! Have fun! P.S. I get winner! :D |
I got $5 on Amoeba, cause I despise Joopson. :p
|
Are we going to post our concept art, or do we keep t to ourselves (I have not started yet, but still, just making shure)
:) |
You better win joopson, or ill call you JoopNUB! :P
|
post the concept, if you can.
|
Well... it would be a good idea to post a concept to demonstrate that you have the knowledge to actually achieve what you initially set out to do, instead of having stuff happen by accident then rolling with it (I speak from exp >< lol)
|
Go amoeba go!
*twirls shirt above head* "Da-na-na-na-na-NA! Extrude! Da-na-na-na-na-NA! Tweak!" |
£5 on joopson cos amoeba is a newbie

I did something kind of unconventional, A 3D concept. Keep in mind that this is crap, but its enough to work off of for when i start modeling. Its gonna be a spider robot tank. its like 10 feet tall, and it shoots rockets from that top part, and bullets from its face... Trust me, you will be able to tell by the end ;)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out! Oh, and maybe this should be designed to look more like a Scorpion, as you have that large tail/ rocket launcher sticking up, and over it's back. |
Your concept looks good, Joopson! :)
Anyway, I drew a crude top an side view at school, but no good version. I will hopefully post it today, but Im pretty busy so I can't gurantee it. PS: An other problem is that I do not have a scanner, and my paents are currently using the digital camera for work-related stuff. :shakehead |
hey i just realised you're both from different time zones, which tuesday does this end?
|
his tuesday, which is basickly at noon on our wendsday (if, as your sig says, you live in NZ aswell)
:) |
Ya dude, i don't lie (much)
looking forward to see the results of this battle (that's not a lie :p ) |
does NZ = New Zealand?
|
yup
as far as i know thats the only way to interpret it... nz = no zookeepers nz = noisy zebras nz = nutty zoolapons (ok, i've run out of words starting with 'z') theres nothing silly i can make it expand to... damn lack of 'z'-words ;) |
umm, its already monday, and no concept from you, So, are we calling it off? or are you working in secret? ;):p
|
secretly he has been refining his artwork that will ultimately surprise us all
maybe he fights in stealth, hence why he hasn't posted any of his work :ninja: |
Well, He needs to post at least his concept, and a couple of progress shots.
Otherwise he could post any image, and say he made it! Anyway, I hope this challenge isn't over! I was looking forward to seeing the Battle arena roar back to life. |
maybe he's forgotten all about it? :(
|
Or maybe he saw Joopsons concept and ran off crying ;)
But this sucks! We need to start another battle! If your interested Joopson we could go at it? Or anyone else for that matter :ninja: I need practice! |
what's to battle with?
|
mayaniac, sure, why not...
but, you have to promise to work on it ;) |
Oh I'll work on it ;)
So what to you want to do? Cars... People... creatures.. Hard surface.. organic... etc? Also, Chirone do want in? we could have a Group battle! |
Ooo sounds fun, i have a bit of time that i need to devote to maya
|
Alright! It's on then!
So what are we going to model? |
should this part of the post be moved to the challenges part of the forum?
i been meaning to remake my little gundam SD models :p |
Yeah we should probably make a new thread!
I'll do it later, or you could... either way! I guess we could do a Mech style thing if you like. Personally I would like to get some organic character modeling done. But a cool Mech sounds like fun! We'll see what Joopson thinks! Anyway, I'm going to bed! |
Oh yeah, this will be awesome :beer:
I've been in the mood for some organic stuff, but I dont care either way ;) cheers, -Andy |

sorrysorrysorrysorrysorrysorrysorry.... D:
I am so sorry... :(
OK, the reason I wasn't on since last week was that we where changing servers (my family has it's on domain), so I ended up with no internet. I really apologise for this, especially to Joopson. And no, I didn't run away crying when I saw your concept! :p In case this is still going (probably not though..deadline was a few days ago) here is what I did... (These are very early pics I did on the first day (Last saturday I believe). I didn't do much after that though, since I was told I will have no internet for the next few days... :( If anyone is still interested, I can get the more recent version, and the concept up. BTW, it's an anti gravity fighter.... |
i'm not seeing any pictures... :confused:
sorry for hi jacking you're thread too :shakehead |

Oops...
anyway, I get a more recent screenshot up later (when I installed maya: I moved computers aswell, now at least I got a gig of RAM and 733MHz processor...before it was 300 MHz processor and 300 and something megabyte RAM (4 rigs).) BTW, to clarify, this is not a good pic at all, just meant to give an idea of what I was building. |
:eek3:
i thought my laptop was bad with just 1.5 GB RAM.... how do you work with such old specs...? otherwise what you were building looked like it might have been pretty fun to ride in!! :attn: |
Yeah, I'd be too busy right now to continue it in any way. I am working on 3 different things right now, and I'm swamped. But what you made isn't bad at all, and I wish we could have finished this!
|
^In my opinion, the first pic is complete crap, it looks better with guns, tubes and other "detail" now. :)
Anyway, are you planing to finish yours? (The scorpion-battle machine) Would really like to see it if you do! :) Quote:
If I converted a polygon into a subdiv, it already started lagging. So yeah, I had to put everything heavy on layers. :eek: |
