Thanks Guys!
More of words than an update. I REALLY think we all need to see this in the game, and I want to show it there without flaws. These aren't that. This is to relieve my updatitis. I want it, but I want us all to have it. It's actually further along than these show. these are from a couple weeks ago when I was going to update.
I did think I could get away with just copying the first side, but the other side isn't like that mostly. Everything is nice, smooth and rendered down to low poly. It stands currently at 8k polys down from 98k in the last pictures. I haven't broken the body itself down yet. It looks nicer in standard light. I'm still not done. This is the last corner to fix. Also working on the logo:
A closeup would do it more justice. but then I would start working on it again lol. Most of this thread is me trying to just use photo texturing. I'm not too good at that. I can build everything from scratch now. that's working for me. Doing the stickers and such:
Currently, the bogie is more in line with the normal bogies in the game (not like it's shown). I've moved the braking to the body as I would like to animate them. Cant do that with these keeping it under 2k polys so far. Once I figure out how best to low poly those (if I 'd just learn LOD I could skip all this), then I could finish these:
It's you Guys' fault for keeping the bar raised so high that reminds me how much I still have to do.
I'm also still working on this too:
