Great pallet! Here's something of mine...
*boom*
First model where I've made the texture from scratch as well as the model. 
And for those of you who want to see it in action...
And a more hi-rez of the explosion effect (which I also made):

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread v4.0
a good start, however you can cut down the number of polys pretty hard if you do it like this:Wonderboy wrote:Questions or comments? Please tell me if there's something to be improved on. My next step is UVing it and then texturing it.
(please excuse my bap paintskills, i dont have anything else installed(in case its not recognizeable:you can build it out of boxes, then all of thesee unnecessary "cut-edges" are gone)

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread v4.0
Thanks for the nice comments.
@Darth D.U.C.K- I kind of get what your saying, but I was told you can't have a face with more than 4 edges and so i made the squares like that.
@theultimat- that looks superb, no offence, but that looks a lot better than you're first exploding barrel model. Good job

None taken, I completely agree.Wonderboy wrote: @theultimat- that looks superb, no offence, but that looks a lot better than you're first exploding barrel model. Good job
I could hardly use XSI back then anyway, so this is a definite improvement (I hope xD).-

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread v4.0
If I was to make that out of boxes, all it would be is boxes on top of each other, they're not connect by vertices. I made all the squares so they would all be connect by vertices.DarthD.U.C.K. wrote:0.o im afraid i dont get what you are saying, boxes are build out of 6 4-sided polygomsWonderboy wrote:Thanks for the nice comments.

A box has six polygons on it. Each polygon has four sides. That means you'd have only 4 side polygons. 3 sided if you triangulated.

Yes, I know but that isn't what I mean. The boxes won't be connected then, or maybe they will and I am just ignorant.Culvar wrote:A box has six polygons on it. Each polygon has four sides. That means you'd have only 4 side polygons. 3 sided if you triangulated.

You can have all the boxes as separate objects to construct it. Then just create a polymsh. All the polygons will be 4(or 3) sided.

Re: SWBF Series Model Showcase Thread v4.0
yes, they wont be connected, but this saves about half of the polygons and looks the sameWonderboy wrote:Yes, I know but that isn't what I mean.
