HERE are the pics from the ready textured Z6. I haven't already tested it in Battlefront 2, but in XSI it looks fine :lol:

Loving that texture; excellent work! At first I didn't like the orange color, but it has grown on me.

@Slime: I think I wrote it one post before this, yes, I will release it!

@Marth: I'm working on a bump map and I rendered the Z6 with a bump map in SI

At least the animationset isn't complete yet, so I will need some time to finish it up and release it.

And here is a TCW ARC trooper, on which I'm also working.

The body wasn't designed completly by me, I used Ande's TCW trooper. However, I don't know if I'm allowed to edit his model, I haven't written him an email yet.

I love how Luke showed up and he's like "Sup, I'm another awesome German modeler."

Nice work.

Dear God...

I tried a while back to get into the modeling.... But I was terrible at it. This is amazing - and reminds me why I gave up eventually...

Awesome work!

I decided to try myself at modelling. This is my first serious attempt (ever). Done in SketchUp for about 2 hours.

Now I'm trying to convert it to MSH.

I think you should learn XSI/softimage, AvalancheMaster, the skills are there! I sense it... Its a moderate to steep learning curve but once you nail the basics then everything kind of works it way in and becomes gradually more complex. XSI is MUCH better for more complex models but sketchup is a good start for basic modelling! Good job on the house! :thumbs:

Thank you :) Hope I manage to convert it to msh tonight, I kind of struggle with the tutorials, but I think I'm really close. :)

That looks pretty good.
All I can make is a box. A really awesome box, but a box nonetheless.

I agree with the post above, if you have talent you shouldn't stay with sketchup, it's a VEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERY limited program, you'll be making far better models in less time with the vast tools that Softimage has. Staying with sketchup will only hinder your progress and development as a artist.
