~1200 is nice. 900 is low (q3 player model default), 1500 is a tad high.

Here is a question, do you inmbed the wepon in the model itself, or do you model it separatly?

Neither, Q3 weapons are not connected to models other than by a positional tag. I suggest you read up a bit on Q3 player model creation/importing:

http://www.qeradiant.com/manual/Model_Manu...odel_manual.htm
http://www.4thdimented.com/dimented_tutori...ialQuake3_1.htm

There's a few tricks to it 'unique' to the game.

Hey, I just thought of something.

This is all well and good... but where's the female Slipgater? I would have thought that would be a priority over another male player model. Slipgate - Tongue

You tag the model on his hand, and then Quake 3 puts the model there itself. A very nice way of doing it, as you only need to make one model.

Thanks o'dium ;]

Washu: also be sure to visit my new sticky thread in the Laced Neptune forum, for (hopefully) helpful tips and tricks on Q3 modelling.

Since I've posted a few shots already, I guess I'll do some progress shots here, for a change. Maybe some people would like to see the skinning process in steps (or sometimes, leaps)..

Looks great for a low poly model  Slipgate - Ninja The only crit i can say is that maybe those wrists are gonna look a bit odd, but thats because of the angle i think.

Thanks - The hands and wrists are a bit on the blocky side, but you're right, this is not the most flattering angle to see them from. :]

Yes - I'm going to do CTF skins for the feller - it's going to be a full Q3 player model kit, including a 'bot' ;]

Tabun, how are you with high poly work, i.e. REALLY high poly CGI style stuff? i.e. models and normal map models?

I'm afraid I wouldn't actually know, o'dium.. I've never tried (I think that actually means I will suck in it for at least a while Slipgate - Wink).
I know my share of subdiv tricks, so my high poly modelling should be ok. My greatest skill lies in using skins to make bland models come to life, so I don't think I'd be much good (or have much fun) making normal maps etc.

I saw on the Blur forum that you were looking for a modeler, but I don't think I can be of help.

I stink at skinning way bad. The last thing I tryed to skin was a spaceship. It ended looking like one of those shacks, people of poverty live in South America.

It would be a waste of time to even attempt to attempt to do that.  Slipgate - Smile
