Aro101 Showcase

Post by aro101 »

Hi Everyone. I'm the leader of the polish translation for TR. Besides of that, i'm interested in modelling. And I hope, I can help the TR, by making some 3D Architectural models for Morrowind and maybe someday for TES IV.

Unfortunetally, I can't find some concept art for architecture here... Can someone hook me up with some links? And the second problem is, which is a consequence of the first, I haven't made any TES models. But, I can show what have I done lately in 3D studio max and Google Sketch Up, is it okay, to post pictures of this here? Even if the renders have nothing to do with TES?

Anyway, is there still a need for people like me?

Currently I'm using Blender and Google sketch up.

We have no need for Architecture for TES3. We do, however, need Architecture for TES4. How about you move that 'someday' to 'someday soon.' Once you are able to mod for TES4, we can supply you with a heap of concepts that need modeling.

hey aro101,

I am also a TR member hoping to be accepted through my showcase. I originally wanted to write an essay on Hammerfell architecture, but I was told that the concepts have not yet been finalized.

I'm sure that there is need for people like you, especially for people like me who need the models in order to write...

Good Luck

I think you misunderstood G_D, I probably wasn't clear. When I said...
We have been developing Architecture concepts for the past half year and have already started building the meshes (which hopefully will be used as a universal Hammerfell style).
... I meant that since we have been working on concepts for so long, we have nailed down almost exactly what we want and because of this have already started (and have gotten deap into) making meshes based off of the concepts.

However, there is so much more to mesh for TES4 other than Architecture (even though we still have much more Architecture to go), like interior sets... for everything.

I sort of misunderstood you I guess. If I am accepted for my showcase, I would be glad to write about any completed concepts or meshes, etc, though.

I don't mean that I will only write about architecture of course, I just assumed that it would be an intersting topic, and one that certainly intersests me.

Someday soon doesn't sound so bad for me. I can give a try. Hopefully my software isn't a problem (I'm not using 3d max).
What exactly do I need to make models for TES IV? Because of my hardware and lack of time, I am not educated in this case.

Actually, I'm ready to model everything except animated models (I have never tried, and this won't change fast).
Tomorrow, I am going to post some pics of my non TES work.
Thanks for the answers!

I am with Noirgrim i am always very excited to find new modelers. But yes we are more focused on getting models for Oblivion. Dont worry we will always find things for you to model that will help us out big time, and hopefully provide you with some fun!

Ok, so here's some of my work.

First, a simple pheonix modelled ind 3ds max 2 and rendered in 3ds max 8:

Secondly, a (Manga face?) girl:

Now, a model of which I'm some kind of proud:

At last, the most architectural model, my latest work in Google sketch up, that I created for my friend:

I'm surprised :D Thanks for your opinions. As soon, as I find some time, I'll try making some TES related models.

I don't think a post-modern home with neo-classical influences would fit in anywhere in the ES universe.

However, the images presented here definitely shows the necessary skill to work for TR.

I'm not sure about that. of course it don't have to look exactly like it but the style should fit somewhere, I can't find a good reason till why it wouldnt.

Uhm, actually it's an aristocratic manor built in the XVIII century. Action of a famous polish epos "Pan Taduesz" by Adam Mickiewicz takes place there :D Anyway, I'm already working on one of Yours Concept Art. More soon.

Ok, se here's what have I done. I took one drawing from your concept art, architecture, hammerfell section (http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/files/hf_tower_107.png) It's still a simple construction, and the textures aren't perfect either, but adding more details isn't that difficult.

Oh, and can someone help me? I made this with Google Sketch Up. I really like this application. But, I can export into other file format only with Google Sketch Up Pro, which of course I can't afford. I was looking for a free exporter/importer, but I failed.
