stoned pt.2

another work on stone

stoned!!!

Working on a private project, exploring different approaches to a stylized look. Progress is based from top being first pass to bottom being the latest approach.

In game pack

managed to get my pack imported into game. Lots of changes needed now that I got a better view of it. Making changes to some of the shapes and giving it some funk and wear. I decided it might best be an engineer item to go with the trap/teleporter.

pack update

just an update. finished modeling, onto uv's and baking some AO!!!

wand and pack

Moved onto the neutrona wand and proton pack. Still playing with the shapes so things aren't final yet.

wand *bottom right* and the original medigun from tf2 *top left*



Proton pack

Finished Trap

I think I'm calling this done. If anything I might come back to polish some. time to move onto the pack and wand.

updated the trap. thinking this will be a teleporter replacement.

screen grab



and the animation for it.

new theme

polypack contest is over, but I'm still in the mood for tf2 style. Been wanting to do something gb related ever since we released ghostbusters last year.

Started doing a variation of the ghost trap... life trap..

wires!!!

some people have been asking to see the wires, so here they are.

Final Presentation

Calling it finished, made a presentation page. Valve has total control over what these would actually do if I won, so the descriptions are just for fun.

polypack pt.2

Everything is done except for a bit of texture polish








and the ingame shot of the big mean mother hubbard

Polypack Contest

So valve and polycount got together to hold a contribute theme contest. Each contestant has to create a minimum of 3 items for a single class with an overall theme and... fit into the team fortress 2 universe.

I decided on doing a "Bigger is Better" theme for the engineer.

My first weapon is the "Big Mean Mother Hubbard". Its an oversized shotgun/blunderbuss that shoots metal bits instead of normal ammo. Its currently at around 4,700 tris and using a 1024x2 diffuse.



my second item is the "Big Tex" revolver. Its oversized in size and ammo capacity. Untextured at the moment, its the last one to get textured.



The last item is "The Big Bang" mallet. It replaces the engineer wrench.

sword

decided to zb a sword during lunch. Now that I found a good way to approach weapons in zb I'll actually try to do one from ref or concept.

Door finished

Somewhat. I've decided to move onto some other stuff. Few areas that show the mirroring.

3/10/10

working on some high poly stuff, finished most of the front side of a door.

Also finished another high poly brick/stone wall

last art of 09

been getting cabin fever at home with Anne at work. Decided I'd go in to the office to get motivated and make some stuff. did a quick double sided brick and just re-used it all over the place.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy new years.

warhammer mod

few of us at TRI are thinking of doing some space hulk/40k stuff to mod with the torchlight engine. just got a chance to finally finish a model. First one I've finished in my free time outside TRI in months!!!

Chainsword.
