man, i thought when some guy was listed as digger for this year i was seriously pessimistic, but this guy just does not give a poo. a well earned spot already

Looks like Bari is on a Patrick now:

no thats just a CRD without the front bowtie on. PEI frame rails are way closer together at the front

Here is a larger photo.

 

ok that can't be anything other than a warthog from halo, and i don't see a microsoft logo anywhere near it. 15% rule won't save anyone's ass here. Why not go with a humvee or one of the newer original machines built for Iraq?

I'm really confused why they did this, my only thought is that the FELD brass really are cartoon character suits who said "make it a halo thing because that's what the kids today like with their hip hop and dubstep" because apparently god is a sardonic prick

 

worldwide rights to develop and distribute a Monster Jam version of their award-winning Plug It In & Play TV gaming system

jesus christ

Why are the roof lines part of the base shape? If they're supposed to be faked fibreglass i'd say it'd make way more sense to just actually use real light shells since they're less fragile, can probably survive rolls without too much trouble and you can just raid scrap yards for them. If you wanna keep them fibreglass i'd say knit them in better, they get really lumpy where they meet the roof

It's like Wild Thang's hells angels street fighting cousin

I know I noticed that too...

But Idk how to fix that

well then figure it out then. Don't come whining to others just 'cause you can't sit down and think about something

 

Hey, looks like it half way done, doesn't it?

 

 

That's actually not too bad. The standard F150 body is a bit bleh but this ain't a bad cut at it

that said, it's not even remotely clean. There's a lot of triangles that have no reason to exist in here, including some triangles that'd form perfect quads.  i don't know what you're doing with them but please stop

Also you have all this geometry in the ear doing absolutely nothing. There's no reason for that, go add some more stuff in there, it's boring and flat as it is

I got 2.71 and it's lovely. .49 is genuinely awful compared to newer versions. The only reason to have .49 is for OGRE importers which may not even be a problem anymore

Made some updates to the paint, so it's not plain like before. Huge shout out to Andrew Sheets for the body! The lines on the body were hand-painted. And another shout out to Stephen for the idea on the tattoos!

nope, now it's worse. Visual stuff for stuff's own sake is never good

plain and simple can be really nice if done properly, Legend is perfect proof of that. That said, this is not one of those times

Or sold for scrap and turned into forks or whatever. Machines do not get a nice life in the long run

Up until I saw the shocks I was digging it but for god sakes please do not leave them just floating in the air.

 

Glad to see you didn't give up on the beast PC, always liked it.

for my demo reel i'm making a realtime game level with the beasts as drivable props, probably in Ue4 or cry engine. If people remind me at the time i could probably easily port it to ROR. So who knows, maybe it'll ride again sometime

not really ROR related but i showed this around and people really liked it so i figure everyone might like to have a look.

This is the pooty 2012 version, i didn't like it so i had another go around

I was going to have a nice big render to show but it's still chugging away and it's been like four days. I didn't get all the details i wanted though. No interior besides the seat, no draft booster or electronics on the steam generator, no fuel lines or steam lines to the shock resivoures, no mounts or electrics for the headlight, no clamps on all the sway bar hoses, no bump stops or limiting straps on the diffs, yadda yadda. I'll do a realtime version later on though, this one's like 1.5 million faces

If you wanna have a 3d view here's a little trophy to look at, i don't have enough space to put it on p3d. For some reason the bezier hoses didn't export so there's some floating joints out and about.

To be fair lobsters are actually blue and only turn orange once you boil them, so i guess it actually should be blue unless the regular truck is supposed to be the walking dead on wheels

how bout posting them in the dl section?

Because then there's a million billion broken versions floating about and it makes everything awful, which is exactly what happened now. So we get poo like this

Jason Ballinger (11:13:48 AM): Wait how did you get the paint to line up because the one i got is that one but paint dont line up that was packed

Trilby Harlow (11:14:06 AM): because i made it

Jason Ballinger (11:14:21 AM): Ya its your body i have to

Jason Ballinger (11:14:23 AM): Look

Jason Ballinger (11:20:03 AM): Thats without texture on

Jason Ballinger (11:20:08 AM): here now watch

Jason Ballinger (11:20:49 AM): And its lined up

Jason Ballinger (11:20:53 AM): I don't get it

Jason Ballinger (11:21:01 AM): Tried flipping normals and everything

Trilby Harlow (11:21:33 AM): someone broke the UV

And now that's going to happen to all the bodies. This is exactly why i didn't just throw the models alone up and now it's utter chaos and everything i've made is ending up broken

DX does ok but it's not fantastic

I guess people have noticed that you haven't released much in awhile, mainly showed off what you had. So they then assumed that since you hadn't released them, that they shouldn't either. That and they probably weren't sure if it was okay with you or not.

yeah my only problem is putting stuff ingame. I got a material system and such so that's no problem, but as soon as i touch v4 i just have the urge to redo every tiny bit, so i just started making stuff and not putting it ingame because that'd just turn into a quagmire every time. Anything and everything is up for grabs if people want it

Where did anyone get the idea that i don't want this stuff released? I gave it out so people could have it, why else would i?

You sent it to Tom(RHCPFan652). When I asked you for your bodies, you had said you given them to him, and told me to just ask Tom for what you sent him.

ah alright, i just don't remember deliberately giving that body in particular away. just curious

Also, the body on the crd Max-D has more of a slant to it.   You can see it in the picture below.

Which is why i made one, the whole mould is different, not just the hood

I gave it out with the rest of it so i don't know why its not being used

Why not just release a pack for the entire community to use?

I gave everything i have to Johan and friends. If it's not released it's on their shoulders.

Yeah it's mine, i just wanna know how you got it is all

Might as well post an update, Cranial is making a return! Thanks mark for all the hard work thus far, it still has a way to go. I'm amazed at what can be done in blender!

Oh hey, the theophan, forgot about that thing.

Where'd you get it from? Im' just wondering, since i don't remember deliberately giving it out

I like how the last two or three pages of SYP has just mostly been my bodies. How many have i given out? I can't remember at all. If anyone on the SM team want anything of mine it's yours

Wow that model sucks. Someone was paid to make that. Money changed hands for that

In the words of Family Guy's Ollie Williams......

 

Nothing too special really. Just repainted the MM Dalmation body. Hoping to have it finished up later today.

Wanted to fix the tag to where it says "Monster Mutt 2010 Freestyle Champion", but couldn't find the font that's used on the real truck. It's the same as the Monster Mutt logo.

 

Later taters.

that model is a travesty, no part of it is right and i wouldn't go near it at all

i gave this and it's two friends to cavi and a few other people. Dont know why they haven't seen the light of day yet
