Hello modders! I'm a 3d artist looking for anyone who needs some graphical help in their mods.

I used to mod YR quite some time ago and recently I started to take some interest in it again, though I don't remember much about it. I've been reading tutorials and whatnot but I want to take it easy before starting my own mod, so I thought that in the meanwhile I'd like to help anyone with some assets or even taking an actual position as artist in a mod.

The only thing bugging me is that I can't find any template for 3D applications containing that pseudo-isometric angle used in RA2, which I need to convert my models to shps. I've searched on the PPM tutorial archives, ModEnc and pretty much everywhere and haven't got it yet, so if anyone can help me here it'd be much appreciated.

I'll post some of my work soon and hopefully somebody will get interested.

If your good I say go help Robot Storm.

Yea apollo will welcome you with open arms if you wow him

theres a script availble for ra2/ts angled buildings for 3ds max though blender some modders also use that program (dunno if the script works for that one though) the script can convert the files to SHP there are people at PPM that can help with getting the models converted to SHP files

SSTG, thanks you for the advice. I'll give that script a search. Although I don't use 3ds max or Blender, it might help if it tells me the angle of the camera.

Here's some of my stuff, nothing RA2-like though. Hopefully it "wows" some of the big mods around in need of help.



I thought I had more stuff laying around but whatever, these 2 might do for now, unless someone specifically wants to see something more fitting for RA2 like tanks and war buildings.
As you can see I kind of like sci-fi settings. But I generally enjoy modelling anything interesting and/or creative. I'll do my best if I'm asked to do boring stuff like bunkers and the like anyways.

Fuckin' do Osiris buildings for RS, they should be pretty interesting for you...

[SSTG]

holy F***

I think gamemates replacements finally here!!!

I'm gonna take a guess and say you use maya for your work?

Yes I use Maya (and Zbrush) for a big part of my work but my main application is Cinema 4D and Bodypaint 3D.

[SSTG]

ah cool I've been using maya for my studies back a few years ago for filming purposes

if you use maya for your work then if i remember correctly you can convert them to obj files were ethier 3ds max or blender can read

but I think seeing you know alot more on maya than I do XD you may find a work around

[True Lord of Chaos]

I use Blender, and it can make some pretty epic stuff. However, Maya does it better.

Well, I am interested

[Ash]

Uh...yeah. You're hired IMO!

[FallenDwarf]

Chozo your skills are excellent!
I also agree that you should help Robot Storm. Its a great mod that its worth working for!

[Chozo]

Well thank you all for your interest and kind words. I got several PMs and I'm now part of a project and I'll do my best to make it a beautiful-looking mod.

I'm still available to help everyone with an asset or two, but my main focus is now set.

Awesome stuff your contribution to community will be very much appreciated

I hope you could work on some concept art as well.

great! looking forward to se your work in robot storm

[Chozo]

Well I agreed to help Apollo on some things but RS isn't the project I was talking about.

I hope you could work on some concept art as well.

I might, or at least some renders and promo.


Here's something I made more RA2-looking. If anyone is actually interested in it just let me know and I'll turn it to shp.. Once I find that template hehe.
Not sure what it will work as though, maybe a conyard or something.

Looks to me like a rusty old Tech Centre of sorts.

[Nighthawk]

Could even be made into a sort of War Factory with that door down there.

[Chozo]

Yeah heh it looks like an apartment building with a garage. Well it's something I made real quick anyways.

[SSTG]

I'm curious to see how the buidlings turn out I may ask for a few tips myself
