The worst problem right now is the empty space at the leg joints.
Remember that there is a person beneath the plating, too  :wink:

Otherwise good model

I've been working on the marines chunkiness, because a lot of people commented on it being to little. I think thats mainly because I used the inquisitor space marine as a model for mine. Thats also why he has such a high neck protector. But I've made it wider and think it looks much tougher now.

I feel stupid about it, but I can't find the option in C4D to count the polys of the whole model. But the helmet alone is over thousand already so, probably a lot (although i think the helmet has the most polys by far)

Once we all are satisfied with the general form I will start on more details... (details include filling the gaps between the armour pieces)

Not so many reactions on the last post...
Or maybe that means it looks good now, whatever, I'm going on.

I've filled up the gaps between his armour, and started to add little details. I should go and make a bolter first actually.

And what did you mean with that comment about the hands Typherion? If you want me to try and make some tell me. I'd love to help out, but I don't know if C4D is compatible with your software and how I need to model som things if they have to be animated later.

Getting better all the time.  Talking about the hands I notice his thumb is connected to his wrist instead of his hand.

Looking at the lower legs in the side-on view they dont look nearly deep enough.

Will the elbow and knee joints be detailed like the hips?

It is now approaching shit hot, not quite there yet though, It look's proportioned right to me, all I can see with it now is that, like Chrome, i want to know if you'll detail the knees and elbow similarly to the hips - IMO don't can be done with textures to a greter effect and cost less polys - and are you going to make and changes to the backpack because it looks awfully flat and boxish rather than, there is a pupose to this thin onmy back - I think it just needs beeffed up a bit, get rid pof the big space in between his back and the backpack or maybe move them closer together.

As long as you guys aren't satisfied Ill keep trying to improve.

I made the lower legs a little longer and deeper. And I have added the detailed joints. It's probably not the best solution as you say Tortured. But because I can model practicly anything and I can't do much with textures yet, I thought this was the best solution for the time.

However I am eager to learn how to work with textures better.

I thought my marine needed a boltgun too, so started out moddeling one for myself. Looking to your version on this site Chrome, I noticed something. You have put things on the left side of your boltgun that are on the right side of the boltguns from my real warhammer models... Is the picture just mirrored or does this have a reason?

Im sorry for misspelling your name Typheron (without the i) but do you still need the hands?

It's been a while since I worked on the bolter, some details may have been flipped, to  put them on the side where the player can see them from the 1st person POV.

Yes, we still need some good marine hands.  Several attempts have been made, but we're not terribly satisfied with them so far.

As chrome said, i tried a set myself but they looked, well, shit. Hands are hard to do.

so yes a good set of marine arms/hands would be nice, with them we would be able to get most of the weapons visually in game.

I thought it was time to put my marine in some cool poses. All that you got to see so far was pretty boring.

Please don't comment on the joints, I know they don't look perfect now.

And about the hands/arms, how far up do you need them? Just the lower arm or including the shoulder pads?
As soon as I get the answer to that I will start with them and post my results on this forum.

Cool poses  Smiley

Including the upper arm, but not the shoulder and pad, thanks.

I love it, it looks menacing and evul.
Is there a way to get the model into Source from Cinema4D?
What formats can you export to?
