Hall of Justice CGI for Minty film

[Steve Green]

Hiya,

been beefing up the model of the HoJ for Minty, probably going to add a little more detail around the tail feather structure and tweak the lit windows a little, but fairly happy with it.

Thats a gorgeous piece of artwork there and nice skinning too.
How many polys does that weigh in at Steve ?

[Dark Jimbo]

Beeeeeeautiful!


Steve, you're wasted in whatever it is you do (unless it's some sort of CG jiggery-pokery, natch).

[COMMANDO FORCES]

Very imposing!

[JOE SOAP]

Looks fuckin' great but is it wrong that I'm expecting Stallone to come out?

I knew you'd say that.

Cheers!

Astounding! And if Stallone does come wandering out can it be hi-ex and incendiary all the way?

[Noisybast]

That is brilliant. *So* looking forward to seeing the finished film!

[Steve Green]

Gumpty,

it's around 750,000 triangles, although there's a fair amount in the plinth it sits on that's off screen - and I could probably optimise it a fair bit.

Cheers, yeah it's a lift of some of the concept art from the movie book - although I think I've increased the scale from the movie.

There is some lovely concept art in there. Shame about the film itself.

[Darren Stephens]

Wow. Very cool.

[IAMTHESYSTEM]

Humungus !

It looks brilliant. Really realistic actually. It actually looks like a photograph to me, although to be fair, I seem to be easier impressed by the realism of some CGI than most people. I'm not sure if that's me or them though as I think some people just get a bee in their bonnet over CGI and just assume CGI=bad and see it as such regardless of the actual quality.

[Steve Green]

Thanks very much.

I've got the utmost respect for practical models and effects, and those who do them - but it's horses for courses really.

I always love to see a physical model, but I think sometimes the CGI-bashing is unwarranted, sometimes not.

I remember someone slagging off a model shot on one occasion just because they thought it was CG...

[Pete Wells]

Love it Steve. Can't WAIT for Minty!

[Richmond Clements]

Gorgeous stuff!
