the main thing about it is the scope and laser is to high, and the handle grips and fireing trigger is to far back

i think the holes where you hold the gun are a bit too big and are kind of the wrong shape. do some work on those parts

he he yeah i'm not too good at clues, but i didn't intend it to be that hard...here's the update...still have the wheel nubs things to add. I think this took me about 3 hours to get it where it is now.

And no the legs will not move in game like how it did in the movie.

The funny thing is that all toy/miniature versions of his wheel bike have the seat and gun turret flipped from the LEGO and movie versions. I used the General Grievous on Wheel Bike from the Star Wars Miniatures series to help model it. So my question to you guys do i make 2 versions? the movie version and the flipped version or just one? I think both but i want to hear from you guys the community. And it's not a problem 4 me to make 2 versions. (maybe 4 Murdocr) :wink:

i like the wheel bike and the grenade, very cool. for the wheel bike the "cubes" should be a little more spikey kinda like claws. i'm hoping this is the .5% that you have left ;) otherwise awesome.

Moving_Target, if you are going to put these in-game, then I would suggest cutting down on all polies possible. For example, instead of having the white strip be a separate shape, you could simply texture it on.

true. by removing that white cylinder part you can save... 8...24... about 32 triangles. Then multiply that by how many players are throwing nades, and well ... you get the point. It might be alittle tougher to texture but its worth it.

But i must say, you are doing an outstanding job on these models :D

As some may know that Murdocr and i have a partnership. We make the models and he exports them and we slpit the credit 50/50. Also some of my models are giving him some trouble...

If any expert modeler would like to help us (mainly Murdocr) out here's the link.

http://files.filefront.com/Hovercraftxs ... einfo.html

When you are finished with exporting the hovercraft, we ask you if you could also send the .xsi with it so Murdocr has a model to go off of 4 my other models with turrets. Also if you want to use go right ahead. Just put us in teh credits. PM either Murdocr or me with the model.

Thanks in aDvanced!!!

Nice models, Moving_Target, but remember to watch the polycount. You could probably texture the medical sign on instead of modelling it. As for your sneak peek, I have no idea what it is, even when I'm looking at the scene title! ;)
