New Corrupt

[Vailias]

That project I drew up all those months ago is getting somewhere.

The torso and head are mostly done too, but I have yet to fill in the abs of the torso, so no shot of that yet. and just for kicks, reference on the ironguard guy

 

[daloonie]

Very interesting. But doesn't the synthetic muscles need something holding the together around the elbow? It looks like they're just hanging freely.

 

[Vailias]

they attach to the shoulder joint and the elbowplate and forarm plate at the top just like real muscles! lol.

I'll probably add in a little collar or something around the elbow area of those muscles tied into the "bone" that was on the inside though. After your comment it suggests something is needed, if nothing else, just for visual interest.

 

[Vailias]

more progress.
Starting on leg. Have to sleep now, sadly.

 

[daloonie]

That is one creepy looking fella. Though some of the artificial muscle alignments look messed up.

 

[Death Dream]

Look'n real good!

~Death Dream~

 

[Vailias]

Getting there. Almost done with the base now.
A little more armor/attachment points on the torso, some geo cleanup on the leg armor, and detailing and then its time for faces, and armor sets.

Large images, (2048 square). Linked so as to not break the tables.
Size is handy to see the detail

 

[daloonie]

Looks good, really liking the spine detail. Though his leg armor is it supposed to be so dented?

 

[Vailias]

no. thats part of the "geo cleanup" I mentioned. The low poly cage looks pretty smooth, but when its sub divided it really isn't..

 

[Vailias]

OK base model is done

leg armor is still a little lumpy, but maya's sculpting tools are just making it worse, so I'll deal with it for now.

Next steps:
Additional faces and Armors for characters: Xan, Warboss(face featured), Tensor, and Syzygy

I also need to pick a good color scheme that won't stomp on any existing UT3 factions, but looks good in the process.
Xan has always been military green, so I may go that route. Since I'm making mix and match parts They are going to have to share color schemes and look good at the same time.

 

[SaD]

Great . Can´t wait to see some textured parts .

 

[Slaughter]

Looks cool Vailias.

The legs bug me a bit...They look too heavy for his build in my opinion.
I really liked your first approach.

And maybe beef up the profile of the torso.
When looking at the torso from the front I think "muscles" but from the side it looks more "skeleton".
Hope you know what I mean.

 

[Vailias]

SAD: Thanks

Slaught: Thats a good thing.

See I was worried a bit about the leg bulk myself. (they're the same basic size as the Iron Guard male legs) This guy is supposed to be the "budget" model as far as warbots go, like the endo-skeleton from the terminator series, so the torso isn't as beefy as I'd normally go for a UT3 style model, but I figure if there is one thing you want in a weapons platform, its sturdy legs. So I went with that approach. I think it will all come together once the rest of the set is built.

 

[MacTom27]

Really great work here
This look like a mix of the classic ut warmachine and a samourai.
Also I find it very "quakish".

Here a few suggestions for this corrupt bot :

I second Slaughter about the torso (more meat please !)

Did you plan to make the female versions too ?

 

[[VaLkyR]Anubis]

WOW,impressive model Vailias.It looks good,but if you wanna keep this leg design,you should make the torso bigger,you know,the other things I do like.I believe,it will be really cool to see this model with a badass texture.

 

[Vailias]

Tensor

Xan

Faces coming along.

MacTom: I really dig the face suggestions, and Judging from everything said here I'll expand the chest. aside from my initial thoughts, it does look good.


Yes I plan to do females, but they'll be a separate pack.

My plan for the females is not robots with boobs. I just can't stand that design paradigm as it makes NO SENSE.
The Male pack are the tank assault bots, while the "females" are smaller frame agile recon bots, but not gynoids with guns.

 

[Slaughter]

F*ck yes!
I always loved Tensor.

 

[Sijik]

Looks more like a new version of OverKill than War Machine.
I'd say lose the mouth on Xan, and make sure the head fins are in in some way. Those and that green visor are what I usually see as his defining characteristics face-wise.

 

[Vailias]

Sijik: UT3 has a character creation system. I'm making helmets, facemasks, shoulderpads, etc. This would be xan under the helmet.

Also mactom is talking about this warmachine

not the silver ironman with lots of guns warmachine.

The skull face is based on the warboss model which was in one of the first bonus packs for UT99

All that said I am going to rebuild the faces for warboss and xan. They're just weak compared to Tensor, mostly because I had a good mental concept for tensor, but not as much for the others, as xan always has a helmet on. I may modify the above xan head into Matrix. Not sure.
Working on other torsos now. More updates coming soon

 

[Vailias]

Xan armor set in progress

head detail. Also you can see how I'm building this in modular pieces so other heads can use the xanie stuff and vice versa.
