THINK BLUE
« on: July 20, 2008, 03:40:14 am »
Well the boys in blue are moving in and out of first so I decided to make a tribute image for my desktop.

Built an entire field for the background but it looked terrible despite all efforts so I dropped it.

I moddeled the bat after a small souvenir I got at a local AA game and it had a wierd bump on the end. I added it for authenticity.

REALLY nice.

It just seems to me that the wood texture of the bat is rather rough, like you would get splinters in your hand from handling it.  ;)

I wouldn't say rough, more like bumpy.
PlanAhead: The hat is going into the rock a little bit, and textures stretching on the side of the rock.

Orange Pickle & devilGames: Could you guys say something more constructive than 'really good' and 'AWESUME'?

Rock?.. Oh that's home plate (it's dirty) I guess  can see it as a rock.  ::)

As for the bat, its supposed to be old and used but perhaps I should try to make it look more dirty than bumpy.

The bat that I used for a ref isn't bumpy at all, I just liked how it looked.

As for the hat inside the base (doh)! I must have reworked the model some 10 times and thought I had it right.

Ohwell I think its time to move to a new project anyhoo.

Thnaks for the crits though.
