Stuart Tank
« on: September 12, 2012, 01:05:50 pm »



I have been working on this Stuart Tank over the last couple of days, seems I have a lot more bits to add when I refer to the Ref images but I thiught I`d have a dabble with  Anaglyths again.

I found a nice pair of Cardboard glasses Pinky red in Right eye and Green in Left ( got them from Journey to the Centre of the Earth DVD starring Brendan Fraser(The Mummy) as it comes with an additional Anaglyth DVD)
 I can`t though seem to replicate the tints at work.However, I hav`nt got a pink dye so its red at the moment.

Anyway here are the two images so far...






If you want to dabble with the model, it is at my google drive shared folder

https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B_ohHl-7DzumSFNtM2VHcWN0cE0/edit

There are a few instances of it and is regularly updated

 Latest update




and an Anaglyph version



I have used a backdrop with a bombed out building from Coventry (UK) after the German Air-raid on that City, But I am thinking now of adding an actual set for a bombed/derelict diorama which should enliven it a bit more.

More soon ..enjoy!

 Nice tanks, Kevin. Now the real test... Can they be animated with the tread script made a few years back?

Is it just me or the tracks are moving way too slower than the ground? :P troll

cool! yeah, when you do tank tread animation, as with any rolling, walking, etc., it takes some fine-tuning and brain-farting to make sure you get the movement to match up with the scenery.

Am sure Kevin's just sharing a quickie to show that he did incorporate NickE's tread-script for all to see.

Funny to see tanks, as I have actually been playing with them, too, for the last week... trying to come up with a whimsical tank and driver.... I will probably rework the tank here as it isn't the right look (too serious, I think), but am pretty happy with the driver...

'Arik_the_Red' the first render is hilarious. If that were a video game, I'd want to play it.

Arik_the_Red,  Oop..ha ha. No no. It's a great looking character for a game.

I mainly create my models for use in games. I always have to force myself
to use more polys when I'm modeling for a render or animation.
