Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread 5th Edition
On the oval thingy you should get rid of some of those lines, they will just lag the game and besides you can't see that much detail in battlefront like most circular things in bf are actually more hexagon shaped or maybe dodecagon shape.
Somewhere around that.

The plane looks great but the nose points down too sharply. I would decrease the angle of it. Otherwise, great!

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread 5th Edition
Looks like a nice start, but it doesn't look a thing like any Airbus I've ever seen.

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread 5th Edition
Did he say it was an airbus? It might be an airtruck or aircar for all we know.
(or even the rumored and feared airtrain
) Cool models by the way.

Alpha of an underhanded Chaingun (with missiles).
Grips will most likely need realignment.

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread 5th Edition
It's a really good start Bob. However it has the very same issues my first weapon models had, like my take on the Chaingun. forums/viewtopic.php?p=420021#p420021
The cylinders have too many sides to them. You're probably thinking; "But THEWOOFMAN! If I reduce the side count then it will look all blocky ingame! O: o: O:" which is what I thought at the time as well. Turns out it's really hard to tell how smooth a cylinder is ingame after a certain number of sides.
Each of the barrels should be no more than 10 sides each. Each of the 3 cylinders towards the end of the barrels should be only 14-16 sides at max. And so on.
One might say that one weapon model with 2.1k tri isn't going to make much of a difference. Maybe. But not only is it good practice too keep tri counts down, it can help out lower end computers.
