3d models development

Hello again, everyone!)

Here is my preview of Boxing Gloves model with skylight... 242 polys.
Looks good from afar.

Tell me what do you think about it and if all is ok, I'm going for textures.

Thanks for listening.

Edit: Now I look at it and don't like those holes, too sharp... so I may add few faces there.. Ye, totally need to rebuild the upper part near the hole. :\

[Haraldx]

The camera will be too far to see that it's very sharp. No need to edit that I think

[bikkebakke]

Nah, I'm not even sure we will be able to see the hole

[mikq2]

So you think it'll be ok to leave it like this?.. :\

No problems for me, just to be sure ))

[TommyTheGun]

Just look how many details you can see on sprites (as example pitol shooting animation). The model is goo enough - even if there will be some kind of zoom in the future, Im sure it won't zoom enough to see any flaws on this model.

Meaning:

Yeah, its good.

I was just playing around with the Smart cheetahs models and made the spear handle less bulky. The knife seemed to be somehow easy and in the same pain in the ass, for the pistol - I don't know anyway how to make textures more metallic, and for Throwing knife - I don't know what to do with it.

[bikkebakke]

I can add that I don't know how to do my metaltexture look more metally aswell

[mikq2]

You have to add artificial highlights on the edges and ect. me thinks.
But I wonder will there be any simple ingame shading to add some metallic effects?

eeeerkeeey. ANYWAY! I too wonder about that becouse I'm a bit reluctant to add those stuff if it won't be visable ingame (the only gun that I'v made that needed better metallic texture is needler and that is a bitchy small gun..)

//it has a good metal texture atm, it just doesn't... shine... at all.

[Karpov]

Shiny materials are a common thing in games nowadays, it would also look great in metal and power armors.

Here is the last of my models that I needed to correct. Made a new model to save some polys. This one is 114 triangles.

[Surf]

Perfect, and just 114 polygons.

[mikq2]

Here is the gloves, one of them simply mirrored. No shaders applied exept some simple lighting. Please take notice that brightness of the red color may differ depending on the various lighting setup.
