Hi all,
here are a few tests regarding terminator related assets.
most of the models are frankensteined together
so they function/look ok.w00t
still working on the goliath tank,some h/ks and a model t-600 terminator.

hunter killer has working vtol engines/turbines/plasma gun/engine exhaust glow/spotlight dummies


crushable skull and t800


t800 with plasma rifle-destroyed city enviroment


the "chuckinator" with phased plasma rifles


chuckinator exploding head.


minigun with spinning barrel-projectiles/tracers/muzzle flasher.



new test

They look pretty cool. In the last animation, the blaze/flare should also come from the side holes / cracks on the "gun tip", I think.

thanks,
the minigun still needs work, the muzzle flash is way too dark,small and slow as well.
Cool

THX maxae, very good idea and simplew00tw00t
I tried the RL "Engine After Burn" and it looks very bad, when you change the engine directionAngry

thanks,
thats why i used the panorama prop, so angles could be drastically changed.
sure i could map the fire to a dome in max.
but i'm trying to do things in iclone alone as much as possible lately.

linking a couple of animated point lights inside the engines helps sell it too. am currently making heat distortion for this as well.

you can stretch and squeeze the prop and collect clip to simulate fuel increase or decrease

this can work with a still png as well if you animate rotation .

i have quite a few "tricks up my sleeve" and will be opening a iclone tutorial site after xmas
mainly focusing on special effects-cinematography and sound designSmile

That will be great.

I also want your talent exploring the Toon Shader in ICLONE for people like us who take a little extra interest in the Flat Toon Shaded animations.

To begin with you may render few of your existing examples in Toon Shade and see if you are feeling any limitations while creating equally effective scenes and we would love to know how you overcome that !

easy yet effectiveSmile

Damn! Those look GREAT! Smile
I especially love the aerial Hunter Killer, but well done with all aspects! Smile
By Am7add9 - 11 Years Ago
the hk exhaust turned out pretty good, and its easy to do.Smile
the movie "the riddick chroncicles" was on. so i tried the engines and the elemental effectsBigGrin
By BiggsTrek - 11 Years Ago
These are great. Really would love to see them in use in a longer form... *hint hint*

Hehe

Cool arrival of the Chuckinator! BigGrin

If I might make one suggestion...have him stand up just a bit slower, and more menacing.

But this was an excellent test video! Looking forward to more! Smile

110% agree on the standing up too fast,Smile

i was getting punchy, it was getting late.
excuses excuses i know..
got the mocap working now.. so i can use one of the movies as reference now.BigGrin
By martok2112 - 11 Years Ago
I look forward to your updates, maxae. Smile

(And don't worry....we all get punchy. Heck, I got punchy on a couple of shots in my Captains' Log: Declassified video....and even moreso on some vids I've done in the past.) Smile

i was thinking the t-1000 needs to be worked on next, just to see if iclone can do it.
i know morphing cant be done. but some clever animated textures/prop subbing might work.Wink
current project is over-riding this now, so ....
By Rampa - 11 Years Ago
Morphing can be done. I think Warlord has posted how to videos. You need to keep the poly count and ordering the same. DAZ is a good way to do it, with Genesis. They basically need to be facial morphs, but you go ahead and morph the whole body.

The video I recall is a guy morphing into a werewolf.

thanks rampa, i did see that video
seeing as its mainly textures changing i prefer to tackle this without daz or max. maybe will cheat a bit with AE though.w00t

i am doing a "phaser hit" version of thisSmile
but this isnt fun with reallusion avatars, but it actually looks better animation wise.
