Wonderful, love that you made it carbon fibre :smiley:

#22

Awesome!, could you post an Xplode view of the subtools?

#23

This is really great work. Its amazing how you go from pretty ā€œjitteryā€ shapes to really tight hardsurface modelling. Inspiring work!
would love to se more of the working process. :+1: :+1:

#24

This is sick. Well done!

#25

[QUOTE=teddy007kong]sick design and xsi integration, would love to see some renders.
any tips or tuts on how to get these hard surface features in zbrush?

newbie question , what is xsi ?

#26

I think this piece might end up on the cover of a 3d world magazine or something of that nature. Itā€™s incredible none the less

#27

good stuff! Possible wireframe maybe? :+1:

#28

Great!!!

#29

looks amazing, do you quick retopo-in zbrush and then retouch it in xsi or do you retopo straight in xsi?

#30

Thanks all guys :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

1 soul - Iā€™ll post wireframe later.

gloomingshade - All the concepting is done it zbrush and then xsi to build the parts.

jaystein777 - Not sure if i can since im using xsi

tomaszlanski - xsi is softimage :slight_smile:

Another update :slight_smile:

Really great design. I mean the model is great,and renders are great too, but the design is soooooo nice. Watching with anticipation.

#38

That is awesome, Mike; we see so many hard surface pieces now, that itā€™s diificult to sort the swiss watches from the ikea kitchen taps, but this is a monster amongst pigeons ( howā€™d I swap metaphors there? :slight_smile:

Awesomeā€¦ I want one, more than any predator or termintor head!
Top Row for me already, but i have the feeling itā€™s about to get even better
