Some digging around on google images and the use of Photoshop CS3.

Nice! I made my macbook pro a while back but couldn't find any orthographic textures where did you find a site that had pics from all angles?

  • 01.26.2010 8:01 PM PDT

I just customly searched, mixed and matched and with photoshop like I said, anything's possible. Also, you may beleive this or not but I had made the Resident Evil Umbrella logo on the other side of the laptop. I'll try searching for images if you want and post them here. So long as you have photoshop then you can mix, match, and apply to UVW mapping. I can still never be to sure though what you want exactly so your best bet is to search youself.

oh yeah its fine I could take pics of my own laptop I thought you had found a texture website. Yeah im a dab hand at PS its what I ue at Uni mostly but the laptop model is very old ill make a better one to map one day lol.
Youve done so well for a few hours you should think of a career in 3d modelling lol!

Funny because that's what I'm shooting for. I'm in college for such a career. Perhaps not Bungie though, I was planning Capcom, actually. Now if only I knew Japanese...

haha dont aim for a studio, just get good at what you do and then you can apply, there are a lot of people on these forums who think if thy learn 3D or something similar they will work for bungie! They never think it might not even be around by the time they finish a degree lol!

Amen, I never even learned how to apply cloth yet so I just create aliens like the one in that desert render.

yes darek thats what i used, ringleaders concept art. Hes my own personal little artist, we are making a mod together that was one of the cancelled ships.
No the destroyer is pretty sturdy only the sensors are thin, well the UNSC cruisers are about 10 times larger than the destroyer thats why, this ship is just as sturdy,if not more so than the official bungie frigate a ship only 7 meters shorter!


It is not that it doesn't seem sturdy, rather the piece on the side that hangs off and looks like an engine doesn't really give the craft the condensed feel so many of the other UNSC cruisers do.

Yeah I kno what you mean but its not a cruiser its just a bigger frigate, cruisers are completely different ships, the forward unto dawn and the other frigates have similar engines.

But they really do have a more UNSC feeling when they are condensed as I said before, even if you are allowed to interpret it anyway you like.

Yeah you are right but I don't want to have the all the ships like that to save the fleet looking to generic and remember my universe takes place many years after the end of halo 3 space tactics and design have changed a lot in that time.

Almost forgot here is a small montage of just under a third of my ships, there was no point putting them all on one sheet as then they would be too small to see (there is a max size limit on uploaded images).
Anyway remember all these models are works in progress all are untextured save a few and most will be subject to change and re-designed as a few are close to two years old now!

Image Montage

As for references the upper section of the fighter is based on a design by coolhand from SFM, the carrier on the sulaco for an aliens tribute (and another crossover) the bulk transport on the kunde concept art from HW2, apart from that the rest is mine.

EDIT: Ill post the other 80 UNSC models when I make a few more sheets for them so you will see them soon!

Got a big render in the over for my destroyer model should be ready in about two days so watch out, haven't posted in a while been working on a variant of the samson helicopter from avatar, ignore the shiny materials they are just a test to see how they reacted to light, thought some ppl might be interested so here it is so far, don't worry ill be keeping on halo topic after this but wanted to post it>
Samson
The model and render where done in free software Google Sketchup and kerkythea Render so you don't have to have money to try. It has a full interior, cockpit with holographic displays and a rear troop bay with 14 seats and cargo storage as well as working doors and two door gunner retractable positions:


Obv ill do the final scene in max and use vray but just for test renders kerk is great:

Very nice models, nice concepts, if you want to, work on the longsword and use halo PC as a reference; a lot of the user created maps have longswords on them. I'm sure that with those you could create an amazingly detailed 3D model.

Those are exactly what Halo CE doesn't support sadly, that's why they are making Reach.

Anyways, Liam, I love most of your models and can't believe the effort in this project. I must say, keep it up.

  • 02.15.2010 6:03 PM PDT

Im not saying he should make the model FOR Halo CE but to use the Lonswords on the user created map named: Extinction, purely as a reference to make a model. All he has to do is load up the map, walk up to the ship, do a little looking around on the outside and the inside and then take what he observed and create the model (which is the hard part).

The long sword was just taken from the Maw and given an inside.

All it really is is a triangle.

there are enough ref images ot just model it normally, its would be pretty easy, like buggyvirus said its just a triangle basically!

I understand. Its just that some people see one little detail thats wrong and they nerd rage about it. The longswords do have a very detailed cockpit though. From the last cut-scene, when the chief takes off his helmet it shows part of the cockpit. Besides, its really freakin' fun to fly. I used to be the best Halo: custom edition pilot, no one could out-fly me. It wasnt as well equipped as the longswords, but the pelican was what i could fly/land/insert(troops) the best. I wish I still had my laptop. (Sorry for the wall of text on your forum.)

these things are freakin good. their perfect. I've done 3D modeling in the past, but these are amazing.
