Preview: The Warthog (Halo Jeep Vehicle)

[Grey Fox]

Here is a preview of a new unit I started to model today after feeling frustrated at my Scorpion unit. (Problems with making it into a civ3 unit )

I'm gonna add 3 Halo Marines on it aswell, 1 Driver, 1 Passanger that can use it's weapon to shoot while in movement. And a marine that controles the turret, which is the main weapon of the Warthog.

I'm also going to smooth it some, and texture it.

I think it is looking good so far, but what weapon will the person in the passenger seat have? It looks good though. Keep up the good work!

Dude, this is awesome. Now we'll have a Halo Mod. Oh wait!!!

Chieftess!! Are you going to close this thread as well? I don't think GreyFox contacted Xbox company. Uh oh! CT!

Nice Grey Fox , lets just hope this wont take as long as the scorpion did/do.

Sebsage, sh*t up.

I would like to help you with your units, if you wouldn't mind.
I'm going to try and get CD4 in a few weeks with a upgraded computer. I need something to get familiar with the program, but I've already figured out how to animate and render with the demo. (it took me 3hrs to d/l and it was worth every second)
maybe we could team up.

Well, as long as the unit is effectively modeled by Grey Fox, from an idea coming from Halo, and not simply a 3D model taken directly from the game, I think it's perfectly legal.

Looks excellent

A bigger chaingun might be nice, to really show up.
I dont know...Maybe to fight in with the more exxagerated, cartoonish look of civ, maybe it better be, sort of squashed up a bit.
Smaller length, perhaps make the windscreen bigger.

But these are just options...Im not even sure if they are valid.
TIs my birthday today...champagne

******, if you're gonna dis someone or whatever you were trying to do, GET IT RIGHT! Xbox is made by Microsoft, not the Xbox company!

Grey Fox, you are my new best friend!
Keep this up, and soon enough we'll be able to make a Halo scenario.

Kinda makes me want to go and run over some aliens......

Are you going to add a texture to the model? If not, I would add some more detail to the wheels. Also the jeep seems to be a bit too long (only the middle part -> refering to this image). Anyway, the mounted gun looks very nice.

I don´t know if you already know this, but on bungie.net you can see small movies (only the wireframes) of the models they used in the game.

Yes I'm gonna add textures, as I said in my post, and I know that it is a bit too long, will fix that...

Yes I know.

Maybe you could do the Pelican Transport ship as a start?

 

[bhiita]

OK, I would love to make that!!!!! as soon as I get everything (comp/prog) I'll start on it are there anymore pics? and it's going to be a few weeks before I'll be able to do anything.
after I make this I might be able to make the camel calvalry unit

Grey Fox,

Are you then planning on making the Marines their own seperate unit?

Not really, I'm just gonna make very low detail, Simple things sitting and standing on the Vehicle.

Like these (but much more simple):

That's sad. But won't a Halo Scenario eventually require Separate Marine Units? Cuz those guys would be pretty cool. They sort of look like the Colonial Marines from Aliens.

Yes it would need them...

But I don't think I can make them at the moment, sorry
