jamagica Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 Ok....here's a new little model I'm making: the unhatched egg... After seeing this WIP you'll get the picture that I'm into simple characters, but mechanical ones.... After this I'll be adding feet, more detail on the "cage" and add some lights that are shining on him at all times (to incubate him)... this is going to be an interesting model Quote
.:shortdog:. Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 You really are into mechanical modeling, huh? Well, anyways, it looks great so far...interested to see the whole thing... Quote
Dearmad Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 Nice overall shape. An interesting little... device? One thought- if I were making that, and the egg is going to do anything, I would probably make the egg seperate from the machine part... Quote
jamagica Posted September 17, 2005 Author Posted September 17, 2005 Dearmad, The egg will move with legs I am making right now... but you just gave me an idea. I'm going to somehow create a device where the egg itself can hop out Quote
Mr. Jaqe Posted September 17, 2005 Posted September 17, 2005 Ipressive! However, I'd like to take a closer loog at the "leggies", the picture is too small/too pixelated for me to see the feet clearly. Love the "eggholder"-thingy. Keep up the good work! Quote
jamagica Posted September 17, 2005 Author Posted September 17, 2005 jaque, I'll get a shot of the legs after this one: I added the arm with the lamp..still have to add detail to the lamp part you'll also see I gave the eggy a visor Quote
jamagica Posted September 18, 2005 Author Posted September 18, 2005 Whoo hoo..all three of the lamps! I had to take off the top "bar" of the forearm so that the lamp wouldn't be limited to where it would go Quote
luckbat Posted September 18, 2005 Posted September 18, 2005 Would you consider doing a "mechanical modeling" tutorial? It's something a lot of Hashers struggle with, and I think your techniques would be very well received. Quote
jamagica Posted September 18, 2005 Author Posted September 18, 2005 wow! Maybe...but I must warn you...I cheat on many for many of my methods...for example...I don't bevel small objects that are little details not meant to be focused on... yeah...I'll try to make one. Quote
jamagica Posted September 19, 2005 Author Posted September 19, 2005 Ok...so the guy's got lamps..but how does he pick things up? Here's a very very very basic sketch of an idea...basically two arms would be in the front as drawn in red... good idea? Quote
trajcedrv Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Good idea! HEY cool ... um ... egg!!! Good mechanical modeling, keep us posted! Drvarceto Quote
jamagica Posted September 19, 2005 Author Posted September 19, 2005 Thanks! I need some feedback on the idea I drew in that diagram.... Quote
