You could make a kotor sith statue or a jedi statue, a ship, a weapon etc.

Well, i had a day without any work to do, so i decided to make this test for myself:

Can i model one of the most well known Jedi with a new texture, and mostly from scratch in one day??
Can I also give him a new saber hilt and new anims, plus bug-free in one day??

I think i succeeded on the first question.. Starting the second now.. GT, i present, playable in Battlefront Zero:

Jedi Master Plo Koon


And ingame :D :

Awesome!!! Are you going to release the assets for that??? I AM A HUGE PLO KOON FAN! :plokoon:
EDIT: I also agree with Revan_Malak, you should add some more details to him.

I don't agree, i don't see where to improve him :P

And yes those weird spots on his robe has been fixed :roll:

Anyhow he will be released after BF0 is released ;)

From the look of his head ingame, it looks like you need to triangulate the side of his head.

Yeah. Idk what triangulating is but there's something strange with his head. Apart from that, it's the best model I've seen here since your madalorian or whatever it was xD.

May be because his head comes to a point at the top, but other than that it is a really good model.

I would give a bit more detail to the chest - right now, the detail of the head makes the lack of (modeling) detail on the chest very apparent. Even if you don't want to actually give some physical difference between the chest part of the model and the robe, I would at the very least bumpmap it to make it look better - as well as increasing the detail of the chest, texturewise (if possible, don't know the size or layout of your UVs/texture).

Nice Plo Koon MandeRek, as mentioned needs some minor adjustments but looks good. I like the eye texture :)

Anyway here is something I have been working on lately. It is a Gamma Class Assault Shuttle.
To save you from having to rush off to Wookiepedia, it appeared in XWing Alliance and was used to deploy Zero G Stormtroopers and that is all I am going to say at the moment. For those modeling curious types, the main body is one cube.

Yeah, actually the chest is a good model.. It is like the jed_inf_jedi's chest, i only need to improve the texture.. Still i don't see what to improve more, looking at this pic:

Looking again maybe it is just the background in the in game picture that is distorting people's view, or the breathing tubes are a little too fine for BFII if you know what I mean. It is still a very good unit model. Much better than I could do which is why I'll stick to vehicles :D

The picture's actually a big help. While the texture could be a little sharper, I can see with that reference pic that inside of the red band is supposed to be cloth and not flesh, as I originally thought. I would make sure that his Jedi turtleneck stands out a bit from his flesh color, so that the two don't blend as much (adding some kind of texture to the texture - i.e. a cloth crosshatch or something - would help to make it apparent that the cloth is really cloth).
