I have measurements, and basic, overarching geometry. It doesn't look like anything yet, though.

As I've hacked out the overarching design of the Marathon, I've gone back to my PiD engine to fix it up, and to get it into a working condition. While next up is the inventory, I've had some time to redo my Headless. I did this because I wanted to make use of layer painting in ZBrush. As I have acce...

Their eyes lack pupils, they are born in eggs, they have wasps, they got sharp things on their legs. They got three eyes. When they build cyborgs they give them pincers. They speak goddamn weird. Their blood is not red. They dont breath air. The only thing that is humanoid about them is their gener...

You don't believe then, Goran, that this version, with some smoothing and some color differentiation, could be more bug-like? I think I'll attempt a multi-layered chitin-muscle P'fhor, and if that doesn't fit, I'll start from scratch.

Ok, look, I don't care what you say. We are trying, just in case you don't know. We are trying to take our time and we show stuff like that so we can MAYBE get reactions. Not, why show that when you don't have nothing done. We have stuff done and we are getting more stuff done every day. I mean, at...

Your comments about the staff, the brain flap, and the head shape have all been noted. Viking, I felt I got the fingers just right. You think they should be fatter? http://marathon.bungie.org/story/terms/m3/10762.gif (probably too dark to be useful) Not so. That leg looks distinctly muscular. This r...

Don't confuse my want for good advice for neuroticism. Telling me "it looks good" isn't as useful as "it looks bad," which is implicit of action, and improvement.

You don't think that would look clunky, that extension? It seems like it would make moving about harder. Perhaps making it wider would advance it from thong to jock-strap. If I change that, I'd probably also want to make the vambraces more triangular, like the original. I feel like I could make a fe...

This is the final P'fhor in terms of base geometry. I've burned about two weeks making sure the base mesh is all right, as this character is easily the most important in all the game, neglecting the SO himself. Fine details, however, are not final. You might say, "What's with the tacky carbon f...

I intend on redrawing every weapon I've done so far in AutoCAD. Before I'm an artist, programmer, modeler, or musician, I'm a mechanical engineer. I've another degree of freedom, and what I can do with it is almost unlimited. Retrospectively, all of my designs are hideous. I tried doing mechanical t...

In the three week vacuum between the ordering and arrival of my new laptop (and the subsequent inability to run all the free Autodesk products I get for being a student, damn you 32 bit processor!), I've dedicated most of this time to the creation of the mainstay of any Marathon game, the basic P'fh...

Play Lugaru's demo. Hell, buy the thing, it's among the best. I attribute "Best" only to things made by the zenith of talent. Imagine walking about, with an uncluttered screen, perhaps on a new retina display macbook. While altering the controls for ease of motion, I'd also assign to the c...

So I've finalized the design for the UESC Marathon, and I must say, this thing would be the 8th wonder. To give myself time to implement effective zero-g gameplay (and for reasons of Terran concern), I've designed it as a shock-absorption propulsion system, based about a central axis. Past the firin...

When I first figured out how to insert screws I did get a bit carried away. I've since revised the design. On the other hand, I've created a few more things like rivets to use on both guns and the level designs themselves. Since they're all to be instances of the same few meshes, it should be great ...

Given the unbelievable lack of definition in the original sprites, I took artistic liberty with the M1 pistol, so the player can have an accurate gun for when I begin building the UESC Marathon next week. I always thought it was a clip fed, crankshaft-recoil pistol, with a cryogenic ferrofluid coil ...

If you switch the name to 0.25 (instead of 1/4), does it work for you?

I need to do the same to 86-0179 but it will have to wait some till I finish my current Pinto project. It's too bad, I know the Willy's style dash is hard to find these days. Did you have to resort to glue, or are the screw holes still on the rear edge? That's not plastic, its just the old lead pai...

Unity3d doesn't have limits, or tangible ones, rather. If you can actually make level meshes on par with the games you mentioned, I'd really like your help with my project.

We lack a dedicated 2d artist. Taking this position, however, implies dedication.
