Decided to model something else besides robots. :P I hope you guys like it.

[kei]

wow that looks awsome man!!
the textures look a bit stretched though
and it might look better if you added a bit of motion blur on the planes!
great work!! :)

[Millad]

Man that is great. You realy need more textures. I will post more :love:

[eyeinfinitude]

NO!!!

[ahmed]

wow EG, that looks just great, although I would say the tip of the place should be... more tippy? lol

[eyeinfinitude]

more tippy planes it is!! :P

[.soulty]

Nice work EG. :thumb:

One of the first things i modeled was a space ship using only the poly extrude face tool in maya and then smoothing faces. i think everyone has to at least do one at one time or another.

:: you started using maya yet? or is this cinema still?

[Voetsjoeba]

Cool stuff EG ! :)

[eyeinfinitude]

Soulty this is actually my first Maya render and yes I did use the poly extrude tool and smoothed it out. :P

[andr.in]

wow dood! the background and the planes don't really fit together (no biggie) but the models are great! Cool stuff man!

edit: also awesome job on the flames... I love the flames man!!!!

[eyeinfinitude]

Darn, I should of put a picture of my living room in the background, that would of been better. :P

[eilsoe]

yes, it would :sure: hehe...

Thought so :) little advice though , one or two planes are fine, but employers hate to see a portfolio full of them, everyone creates them to the point where they are almost like the equivalent to a lens flare in photoshop.

Nice work though. :thumb:

So how you finding Maya? easier than you though?

[lostinbeta]

I already commented on this in DA :trout:

[mdipi]

wow thats sweet, i have fooled around with maya ple but cant get a good render, its to hard, i am considering lightwave though...

very good but the texture needs work, otherwise cool.

[eyeinfinitude]

Soulty, I plan to model other vehicles such as some kind of tank next. So far I like Maya, took me awhile to figure what does what, but after that it was smooth sailing. There are still a lot of bells and whistles I need to try out though.

Lost, thanks for the comment on DA, I'll check it later. =)

[Yeldarb]

can you write a tutorial on how to do this? i'm trying to start w/ maya, but all my stuff sucks, this is awesome!

[reverendflash]

where's my Big Honkin' Space Gun?

Stargate is a pretty cool series. Some seriously nice concepts in that show.

Nice work Egeek, I hadn't seen these pics until now!

[eyeinfinitude]

Thanks ironikart. =)

Rev, I've seen a couple episodes of SG1, but I'm not a fan of it. =)

I like Star Trek more simply because of 7 of 9. :P

[Yeldarb]

oooooooo, 7 of 9 *drools*

[sonnyz]

wow, thats nice, how did you put the earth in the background? is that done in photoshop or c4d?

[eyeinfinitude]

It's just an image I threw into Maya.
