Camel Pack Car..

Post by fo0k »

A little car I'm working on for an interstate map where everything is huge.. ..you have shrunk ;) everything else in the environment is to scale with the packet..

Its one of very few things I have tried to uvmap properly.. cigarette pack is nice and simple..
..rendered with excessive amounts of DOF of course.. ;)

unwrap for this.. i usually go down the uvmap route as you get quicker results and Im normally only making large structural things where you can get away with a quick skin.

Yea I only use unwrap as a last resort you can do unbelievable things with just map

example

the people I showed this model to be4 skinning laughed at me and said "good luck"

I textured it in 8 mins

But unwrap is a very useful modifier to know,depending on the model it can make all the difference

I just personally haven't had much use for it but im glad I know it

Nice car :P
Dont forget the paper boat and plane :P

@ Texturing.
I always use the Unwrap Modifier wich is pretty wasteful for making game textures. Do you know a good tutorial to work with "tiles" or some other techniques?

with the unwrap you are working with tiles,just dont see them,the tiles are the mapping,its a ton of tiles over the model,but the two main ways to texture is uvw unrwap and uvwmap

Couple more renders.. I have added the bottle-top steering wheel, wine-cork wheels and the Zippo nitro booster.. the zippo texture is for the envmapped in game view which looks pretty good... shiny/scratched.
Ive had to scale down the bottle top too much though to work well with the player so might go for a button instead :)

A rollbar out of a bunch of straws :)
Yep a button would look better. Don't forget the match gear selector^^
