update time!

the model (unsmoothed) is 600.000 polygons and when its fully smoothed its over 8 million polygons so i recomend a high end system when rendering this thing




Does this mean you are releasing it in this thread sometime soon? Is it going to be in .3ds format. Its a really cool model once you enlarge the picture.

yes i'm going to submit it to sci-fi 3d for people to download and use in fanfilms or what ever they feel like using it for (aslong as i'm properly credited ofcourse)
and i wil convert it to .3ds .dxf .obj and .mb and i'll include a lower poly animation model with it wich will be around 5000 to 6000 polygons for animation.

Cool. I liked the picture of Grevious with the four lighsabers. My brother thought he sucked because he only had two arms. What do six year olds know, anyway. I thought all your models were kool. I noticed your WIp Grevious on Sciifi3d after I wrote my last post on here.

You seem to be obsessed with .3ds files. I just read off of the anim8or site (which I think is what yo use) that it imports .obj, which is far better than .3ds. Why do you go for .3ds all the time?

Nice attention to detail. You got that little hook behind his mouth figured out.

Are you still using my ears? I see now that the ridges should be on both sides, not just the front.

edit: I think the bottom of his mask curves a little too much. You should also look at the outside corner of his eyes, they should be sharper.

no those are my ears but i did use yours as a refrence so they are similar wireframe wise.
and yes i tend to agree with the curve at the bottom of his mask i'll look into it but i cant put my finger on what you mean with the corner of his eye

Hey morpher, I do use Anim8or. The reason i always ask for .3ds is because when I tried in the past to imoprt .obj, I got an error message saying error reading file.

I do not use the application, but I visited their official site and read that it can import .3ds, .low and .obj (and maybe some others that I can't remember). You may actually want to contact one of their staff with your problem, because I'm sure most people here will back me up when I say .obj is miles better than .3ds. You're missing out on alot. The only problem I've ever had with .obj is that the textures occasionally disappear, but it's only happened a few times. More than likely, the possitioning of objects in .3ds will be messed up, and the textures will be funny aswell. But I only speak from my experience, some may prefer it.
