TheSpleen Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Thanks! Still lots of animals to create. I will have an AM Zoo after this video! Quote
largento Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 I love the characters, Gene! Your style is really showing through in your modeling! Here's a couple of materials I made when I was modeling the monkey ship that might be helpful to you with your ark model. The materials make it look like the surfaces are made up of boards. They are cartoony, but I think that will work well with your style, too. Note the custom settings in the object groups. I give the materials negative bump percents and mess with the scale (to make the boards the right size.) Here's a super-simple model to show what they look like. The negative bump percent cuts the grooves into the surface. You can choose your own colors. Here's the zip. Sorry for the enormous size, but the deckpattern image I made is enormous. shipstuff.zip Quote
TheSpleen Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Thank you! I am having trouble unzipping it though. it stops me at the shipstuff file and wont open anything else? Quote
largento Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Hmm... Something must've gone screwy. I'll try breaking it up. Here's the files in 3 zip files... materials.zip model.zip images.zip Quote
TheSpleen Posted March 2, 2010 Author Posted March 2, 2010 Those are wonderful!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU! I must remember to give you a credit in video! Quote
largento Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 You are welcome, Gene! They look great on your ark! Quote
