  1. The transformer head is sick, it’s really awesome. But for some reason it looks plastic-ish to me more than metal unless that was intended.
  2. Great model there, xcept from this angle the ear looks odd, 45degree snapshot plz? :slight_smile: Good job on that one too.
  3. One word on the squirrel : Cute!

Borgleader: thanks for the comments, the materials arnt final yet jus testing to see what he looks like, il get you a snap shot on my guy later when im at home and my scrat, well i never got to finish it cause the file got lost :(.

Hey Grim what UP? ;] nice modeling all around ! keep it up, how long has it been since you picked up blneder? (just wondering). can’t wait to see the finished trasnformer. No crits here so far.

I like the eyes on the transformer… the blue glow is wicked… for the head the textures are great but the model are great, but the shape looks a bit weird, still really good though

8

hey fried thanks, yes… who is UP? lol actually i never stopped using blender jus come on these websites as a guest.

Chirpsalot: hey jus wonderin what head you said had a weird shape? the guy was ment to be like that if your talkin bout him and its just a material (im not texturer lol) i was going for a comic book style tuff guy :slight_smile: and yea took me a while to figur out how to do the blue glow, soon as i find some good blueprints il start on modeling the body (need the car blueprints but cant find any decent ones…might have to imprivise like some of the head).

hi jus showing you my update, started on my transformers body, having trouble with the back of him tho :\ and also colour tests, im just using blenders internal renderer cause yafray doesnt like me no more and wont work so comments?

Oh sick, for some reason I see an evil grin on the chest piece lol Wheres the eye glow? :frowning:

11

12

mind telling me what you used for the glow? cuz its awesome.

13

well in yafray now you can assign a lamp to glow :), thats it and on the eye i hav a seperate material jus a fin one on the eye (its got two materials) and it emits a blue line (you can see the material in the blender render :))
