TITAN Mk3 Broadsword Type

Freespace-3DT · 19-07-2009, 02:42 AM

Decided I want to practice some good old hard surface modelling, so I started working on a new iteration of Titan model (from my Titan universe)

Here's what I got several hours into it. I'm very pleased with the results so far (otherwise I wouldn't have showed it

). Next is blocking out the rest of the body.

Reminds me a bit of Briarios from Appleseed. Looks really good. nice clean lines.

bobi · 19-07-2009, 03:31 AM

Very, very great design.
Something is confusing me on the helmet part on both picture... it looks somehow squashed on some places... but again, perhaps I am wrong... maybe it's just the reflection that confuses me.

Is this Titan going to be a huge? It looks like a robot at human dimensions.

Great work, post wires please.

wow, you are very talented

Tank[NL] · 19-07-2009, 12:08 PM

sweet work freespace. that scanner thingy is looking great.

Freespace-3DT · 19-07-2009, 02:18 PM

TNTxGRAVE: Didn't see Appleseed, but now I searched for Briarios and I like the design.

Might look for the movie.

bobi: Hey, it's a bit squashed, because I didn't want it to be too rounded. This one's going to be big, yeah. I'm planning on some small details and texture decals that should help identify his scale.

JajeBlade: Thanks, man.

keraj: It's just practice, there are some people that blow me out of the water effortlessly.

Tank[NL]: Hehe, it was red at first, but it looked too much like a Cylon ( Battlestar Galactica ).

Here's an update, and some wires as requested.

bobi · 19-07-2009, 04:52 PM

That wires are totaly awesome.
If you keep it that simple (and efficient), I think you will got third Titan with great amount of detail, and with less poligons then before.
I see that you've abandoned non-meshsmooth modeling, and I think that's a good choise, because you know how to model and control great designed curves of the model.

I didn't said it was bothering me, but that it was confusing me, because I wasn't shoore if it's modeled or reflection issue.
Once we see this robot in motion and the reflection behaviour, I think it will look good (and not confusing).

Tuss4 · 20-07-2009, 12:46 AM

you've got a lot of pinching going on around the faceplate area.

Freespace-3DT · 20-07-2009, 01:46 AM

bobi: I hope it will look good in the end, but there's definetely going to be more polygons. The Mk2 had about 30k, and this one currently has 160k.

Tuss4: It doesn't bother me too much, but do you have any advice on how I could attenuate it, for perfection's sake?

Tuss4 · 20-07-2009, 03:21 AM

could you post up a highres of the area?

himadri_sm · 20-07-2009, 03:38 AM

wow....it already looks sooooo good..can't wait to see it completed...BTW, can you tell me where i can find good references &/or blueprints for mechs & robots? google doesn't help much but only displays random images...please suggest some good websites.

chris_solo · 23-07-2009, 01:15 PM

Big up!!! love the design > what render soft? Vray? or an other..

Freespace-3DT · 24-07-2009, 01:25 AM

Tuss: Certainly ^^

himandri: Thanks, but there's still a lot more to do. You could check out http://anaheimmachines.blogspot.com/ for some sweet Gundam references.

chris_solo: Cheers! I'm using Mental Ray, as always.

I've gotten some hours set aside today, so here's an update. Neck pistons work :P

Nocturn8 · 24-07-2009, 03:32 AM
