I made this while watching tv, so about 2 hours worth of work. I went ahead and normal mapped it, so it's only 164 triangles. I may take another pass at it and juice up the detail, since the budget is there.

looks like it's made out of plastic :P
Very cool for just a 64x64 texture though, the normal-map holds up well like that.
Did you do the normals generated from high poly, or from a height-map in Photoshop? Looks like with that amount of detail either route would have worked.
The colour map could do with a bit more loving! Fast stuff though, please do more! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I could have done better, but I was watching my favorite show, so this really only got commercial time. |

Since my last lightsaber looked like a toy, I spent more time on this one.

nice work on the normal mappy-bits, but perhaps a bit too overboard with that aspect? it looks like a universal remote lightsaber, with the grey grippy bits and the huge circular thing at the top.

Another, this is around the polygon budget and has normal maps only (currently)

The polycount is still a bit over budget, but I optimized the materials down to 2x128x128.
Here's the materials for anyone interested. I think they are still a bit sloppy

Really like this one.
Sweet job on getting that much mileage out of 2 128s! You just blew my mind. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

little more work on the beam. Looks like a rocket engine, a bit of a side effect, but it looked so hot I had to keep it. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
