Final Vegeta Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 They look like CG even for me. FV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobywan Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 A prime example of how the nicest and modt well crafted CG work is still not mistakeable for physical models. Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a lot of people fooled. I had to change pants after I saw that thing. Rodavan's Q-Rau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NERV Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 indeed, the rendering is just as important as the model itself, his red q-rau and at one point the glaug were both rendered in a rashion that was so close to real the only way u cud tell it was fake was cuz there was no seam lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobywan Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 The biggest cue for CGI in these pictures are the textures on the bases. That and they are too perfetctly reflective. Mapping some scratches and scuffs and toning down the gloss would help imensely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myersjessee Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 LOL....nice work...had me fooled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mapping some scratches and scuffs and toning down the gloss would help imensely. i was 60% sure of cgi because i could see the reflecion of the model on the base yet i couldn't tell if any objects from the room could be seen.

Rodavan Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 Thanks - all I will be adding scratches and dents soon , maybe then it will be perfect ......... one day. Cobywan - I remeber , that you had access to a cnc machine some time ago , is this still the case ? These are very detailed surface models that could be used to cut a cheap mould ?

Mule Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 (edited) Yeah, it was the reflections that did it for me too. Tone down the reflections on the shiny parts and add some subtle imperfections and things will look much better.
