Zulu Flavor Units *PREVIEW*

[Kal-el]

the detail level doesn't need to be as high as you have it on that model. At Civ level you are never going to see it. Just thought that might help save some time.

Yeah I know, although I am also doing this as 3D practice. (And btw, the textures are doing alot of the detail in that model.)

 

[Kal-el]

yeah, how does that effect rendering time?

The rendering time isn't that long. My model has about 6 times less polygons then Kinboats Poser model.

And I'm not very detailed with the props.

 

[Kal-el]

well, I am eagerly anticipating what you come up with.

With this encouragement, what am I not able to do!?

Here's today's progress (it's the spearman and pikemen, if you didn't notice ):

NOTE: These are not in any way finished.

I've also made a Bow with an arrow, and the Axe the warrior will use.

just a quick point his feet are on the wrong legs, i.e. the arch of the foot is most noticable on the interior of the foot. Other than the foot issue this is a very nice start.

I know, It got like that when I increased the size of them, will try and fix it tomorrow.

Now, it's time for some Civ3

Here's today's update.

I've mainly been working on the Skeleton for the model today, and here's a pose I made with the archer (a little small I know, but it will have to do for now):

I suppose it will be gone with the final version, but reassure me, isn't it a lot too dark ?

I'm glad someone is making the Zulu units

It's the renders that get's so dark... I need to light it better.

This thread seems to stop so abruptly on the 12th. I was just wonder ing how things are turning out. Very good work so far!

 

[Grey Fox]

Sorry, I was home at my mom and brothers place over christmas, didn't work much on it during that time.

 

[zulu9812]

And I was thinking this was going the way of those HALO units...

 

[Gogf]

Sorry if this sounds ignorant, but did you give the archer a tale?
