[Choking Victim]

It's itsy bitsy you fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eng101:

kidding, looks decent.

[Hunter]

I knew I had that wrong Lol. Would a mod kindly correct it please.

Edit:
And the answer is: Its a warthog!

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g268/martynball/Warthog-1.jpg

Just kidding. :P

[TeeKup]

No.

[Chainsy]

Hey teekup, why dont you just leave him the hell alone and let him do what he wants to? You obviously know that will make him agressive towards you and will use it to start a flame war, stop while youre ahead.

[Syuusuke]

Oh it's going to be that huge scarab isn't it.

Your warthog gave it away

[Hotrod]

I think, and this is just a wild guess, that it might just be a monkey.
I know that it's a Scarab, looks good

[Heathen]

That warthog is cooler than the fucking scarab anyways.

[nick3d]

Looks good, and yeah i think we all agree on the warthog looking better lol

[Hotrod]

That warthog is cooler than the fucking scarab anyways.
I have to agree with you. That Scarhog (the new name that I just gave it) is made of win.

[Advancebo]

I called it a Wartrab

[Mass]

putting the warthog on there was actually pretty funny

I lol'd

[PenGuin1362]

I'd put that in game for the luls >_>

[SnaFuBAR]

Leg modeling looks half decent, though the tri count should be about half that. They could've made details on the scarab more interesting. Hunter, pm me if you want ideas or something.

[Hunter]

I will PM you when I finish the main model of the scarab Snaf, It will be easier to add things on then.

[nick3d]

Hunter WTF is wrong with your avatar

[SnaFuBAR]

it's kermit in drag, yo

[kid908]

the wartrab looks awesome. what's your render settings? im curious =P

[ICEE]

How about making a custom scarab Hunter? The leg looks good but it would be cool to have an original design for the main body than a copy of halo 2's or halo 3's. It would be cool to see some built in turrets other than the secondary cannon. Good job so far.

[Hunter]

I just want H3 scarab first then I will add things/change things. Sorry for spelling/gramma, im on my mobile.

Edit: I don't know what my render settings are either sorry Lol. Because I just changed a load random settings. I will upload the scene for you.

Edit:
35%/40% of body complete.

2457 Triangles with leg. (Half of body and one leg)

Posting pictures of body when complete.

[Hunter]

Okay, I wasn't going to post body until finished, but here it is, probably about 50% or just under. Smoothing errors, Inaccuracies ect...

I know, basic shape first, then modifications and error fixes.


Edit: New pics:

Edit: The legs can be optimized ALOT, i have noticed loads of wasted polygons on them, and the back might seam weird because I have not modelled the power core sheild thing which you can blow of so you dont have to go inside the scarab to blow it up.

Hopfully get the back of it finished tonight.

Anyone going to comment?

[Malloy]

yeh if the pics fuckin worked...

[Hunter]

Sorry bout that. Host sucks balls. Updated.

[Malloy]

yeh kl they work now.

um the body looks too human and uniform looking, you using good references?

[Hunter]

I'm using the game.

[MetKiller Joe]

I see what looks to be excess polygons, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt if you said you've optimized it all.

I like it, though.

[L0d3x]

Looks like a decent basic shape, keep it up.

[TeeKup]

The is what I'm interested it. Personally I thought bungie should have kept some form of mandibles on the scarab.

[Hotrod]

It did have a form of mandibles, though they were very small, and not too noticeable...

[TeeKup]

No it didn't, it had a central eye and 2 charging crystals on each side. Energy sparked from the 4 crystals and coalesced onto the center eye/crystal, then fired.

[ICEE]

Ugh. Lag induced double post.

[ICEE]

http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z295/iron_clad_photo/mandibles.jpg

Mandibles.

In halo 3 they sort of evolved from this ^ into erect formations on the side of the main cannon. Personally I like this much better. I couldn't find a good shot of the halo 3 scarabs main gun so theres not much to compare to.

[TeeKup]

I'm sorry was there some confusion? The Halo 2 scarab has mandibles and I'm aware of this. I'm pretty sure I described and was referring to the Halo 3 scarab.

Thank you Mr. Clad.

[ICEE]

I was agreeing with you and pointing out what you meant.

[TeeKup]

I was agreeing with you and pointing out what you meant.
Oh, then I retract my smartass statement. My apologies.

[ICEE]

Apologies accepted, processed, and converted into an environmentally friendly hair spray.

[Geo]

The emo and tree hugger in me wants that hairspray...

[Hotrod]

I was referring to the charging crystals as mandibles, but yes, I see what you mean. Personally, I prefer the Halo 3 version.

[Hunter]

I could try and re make them.. on the Halo 3 version... :eyesroll:

[ICEE]

That would be cool. I like the halo 2 scarab much more than the halo 3 scarab to be honest. It has a more powerful feel (and cannon)

[Hunter]

The laser that comes out of it in Halo 3 is pathetic. I preferred the Halo 2 one when you had plasma dripping down.

[ICEE]

And it was actually able to kill people.

[Apoc4lypse]

That warthog is cooler than the fucking scarab anyways.

agreed lol, make a walking warthog thatd be freakin sick XD, and somewhat practical for multiplayer.

Just give it a big ass missile launcher turret to compensate for being so slow, sort of a mounted version of that missile launcher in halo 3.

E (i only read 2 pages before posting... whoops)

E2: keep working on it, looks nice though, I still think a walking warthog would own.

[Siliconmaster]

And it was actually able to kill people.

Legendary WTF.

I like it a lot so far. And I must agree that the scarabhog is quite entertaining. ^_^

[Pooky]

No it didn't, it had a central eye and 2 charging crystals on each side. Energy sparked from the 4 crystals and coalesced onto the center eye/crystal, then fired.

You seriously paid that much attention? Please have sex with me.

[Advancebo]

Halo 3 Scarab was weakened due to the fact that its a full blown AI, and not part of the scenery in Halo 2. In Halo 2, it would never aim at you during the game. In halo 3, it would aim at you whenever it can.

[ICEE]

Yes but it was still pathetic. They could have made the main gun only aim at vehicles and the turret shoot at you and had the same effect, but with much more challenge when you were driving.

[Hunter]

Scarab isn't really much of a challenge... Its usually take down banshees then the FUCK OFF spider...

[L0d3x]

The scarab was one of the few AI vehicles done well actually. All the rest was way too overpowered. Amazing how a ghost could shoot you out with but a few plasma bullets...

[Hunter]

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g268/martynball/Size_Compariso.jpg

Its not to big :lol:

This is where ladders come into play.

[Spartan094]

damn dude, with one foot of the scarab it could easily crush that elephant in one stomp :eek: nice job

[Heathen]

sex

[Hotrod]

Niiiiiiiiiiiice, I'm loving it. Keep it up!

[Pooky]

Its not to big :lol:

This is where ladders come into play.

Ladders?

The thing is a walker, why couldn't it just lower its rear entrance to let people slip in :S

haha it's a buttsex joke

[Heathen]

I thought he meant ladder planes to keep the player on.

[Hunter]

I was being sarcastic because its tad bit tall Lll

[nick3d]

Looking good keep it up

[Advancebo]

needs moar phantom nao, or model the ARK so people can use it to make skies

[sevlag]

looks good and I like the use of the Halo 3 style scarab legs, if it DOES turn into a full blown halo 3 style scarab, I'd like to see that (if there is renders or plans, I'm sorry for looking like a noob)

GJ my friend, this is something that I'd put in a map for sheer fun, just make it so when you honk the horn, it shoots it's laser (like those old Xbox H2 mods >.<)

[Hunter]

Halo 3 Pelican next, I have been asked to model it by a member of the 405th.com community.

He want's the model to make a studio size Pelican. :) Lol.

that would be nice, but the problem of the seating, if it was put in a map it may cause problems (even IF they just jump through it by jumping next to the seat while outside it)

[Hunter]

You used the Halo 1 pelican on a map before? You can jump into the back of it and chose a seat.

[sevlag]

You used the Halo 1 pelican on a map before? You can jump into the back of it and chose a seat.yes I have, what I'm talking about is the Halo 3 pelican's cockpit design, one seat (the Co-Pilot's, but if you made it a passenger seat it wouldn't cause lag like the co-pilot in the pelican that is used in maps currently) is elevated and the pilot's seat is positioned RIGHT in front of it.

but either way, it'll be nice to see a Halo 3 pelican in CE, and I know its hoping too much, but I'd like to see a chopper in the future, without boost of course because I know how messed up boost feature gets on vehicles (see Halo 2CE ghost)

[Hunter]

I will probably do the chopper. Like I have stated many times before, I want a full Halo 3 model collection ;)

I don't really worry about the game play and design of the models I make anyway, because I make them for practice and rendering pretty pictures.

Other people put them in-game if they want to.

After Pelican I will probably do the H3 Phantom... then maybe the chopper. (Still need to finish Ghost I started Lol)

(Need to finish Scarab as well, will probably do that half way doing the Pelican, because once I model most of a model, I get bored, and start modelling like shit, so its best not to force my self to do it, that's why the side of the Scarab sucks testicles)

[Arteen]

That's a pretty nice scarab, but can it dance?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/Arteen/scarab_av.gif

[TeeKup]

ARTEEN. DON'T BRING BACK HORRIBLE MEMORIES.

E:I think the scarab is actually a little too big. There really wasn't a whole lot of room in the thing in Halo 3.

In fact your elephant is too big as well.

[itszutak]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/Arteen/scarab_av.gif

I remember that teaser :v:

[Hunter]

Yeah, the scaling may be of just a bit. Not by loads though. I put the warthog in the elephant to scale the elephant and then the master chief next to the warthog and then then scarab next to the master chief and scaled that...

Scarab legs might not be scaled to the body though Lol.
