hey everybody.

i've been working on stuff for a game i'm planning to make. but decided to take a brake from that for now.

i love the way the imperial guard sentinals look so i decided to make one.

Nice work. I like where this is going, looking forward to seeing the finished thing. Maybe some wires too?

Hmm, it looks a little unbalanced right now. The cockpit seems to be too far forward for the legs to keep it supported properly. The sentinel is supposed to be the Imperial Guards fast attack vehicle remember. Something to keep in mind!

Sauron: thanks man i'm glad you like it

doeseph: i've adjusted the cockpit alot again. i made it a little shallower and pushed it back a quite a bit. it seems to be a bit more ballanced right now. although i still need to change the position of the legs.

There's still nothing stopping it from falling flat on its face. It may actually be a flaw in the design of the original model. It's a bit hard to tell from the angle it's shot from.

If you want to show off your model, make sure you don't hide the shape. Your gi-renders do just that, they need some specular!

looks good, you should post some wires.

1 shadow casting omni and low gloss hi spec material would make your render much much clearer.
