low poly lightcycle mod

Post by edd »

I have reworked the lightcycle model and it is now down to 270K from 570K. Personaly I agree with those who think armagedtron should stick to looking like the movie, but I like to use the game to practice my modeling skills and that is why i am following this post with two other models.


any coments or tips will be appreciated.

i like the higher polycycle better, the one on the other thread, cuz it looks more like it has a rider on it.

well, all of them look good, all of them look a lil' better than the current moviepack bike.

personally I'd tweak the one that looks liek it has a rider on it ;p

the bike with the rider

Post by edd »

thanks supertard

the other bike does indeed have a rider on it. Its based on the original artwork for the cycle in the movie TRON. I am currently working on a more detailed and better mapped version.

more will follow.

tank mesh

Post by edd »

suertard
I have just posted a tank mesh. It is 188 polygons. Its not the best mapping, but you can enhance it if you like. I will work on a better map when i get a little more time. I have also posted my final low poly lightcycle. I can't get it any better than it is without it starting to look ugly.

sorry for the short messages, I am unfortunatly busy with other stuff. Also I just assumed we had all seen TRON, i can't be the only person to have seen it and got a little obsessed can i???????
