Title: NEVER SHALL WE DIE - The Vanquisher
Post by: Hptm. Streiger on 12 March 2021, 15:53:07: We are the Hands of the Master.
We are the Will of the Blessed Blake.
We are the saviors of humanity.

seriously when I was looking over the stats of the Vanquisher the other day I thought - well that looks like a Archangel and indeed what you can do with the VQR-5V you can do with a Archangel as well.
and suddenly I got flashed - I needed to reinvent all the Mechs - while its not finished I'm extremly proud to show you my attempt on the Vanquisher (this is my 2nd Mech - well ok if that Lightray (2years ago count) the 3rd.

However I'm not so sure about the VQR-2B
left or right?

Hm no the legs are using the same parts with the same armature bones.
But for better assemblies I plan to make them multi-parts. So it might be necessary to make them thicker.
Also I missed the feet completely, well would be a time challenge to finish it in the March of Robots

The ability to add dirt is scratches and more chipped paint is limited by my computer, and looking over the shoulder of the internal work for Hired Steel I know what else is missing on the picture. (BTW your left or the left on the picture?)
Title: Re: NEVER SHALL WE DIE
Post by: Daryk on 14 April 2021, 17:46:52: The left of the 'mech in the picture. That foot is blended behind the grass just fine. The other foot seems to have an artificial outline.

Post by: Empyrus on 06 July 2021, 15:58:29: Wow, real nice.
After seeing this, i went to look the Vanquisher's stats and was like "this is actually pretty nice", then to Sarna.net to check where the 'Mech was featured... to be greeted by that horrible original art. My mind had already replaced the Vanquisher with Hptm. Streiger version.
Please, you need to get in touch with CGL/Scroggins and get them make this official.

It appeared more like classic art, verses a model for mini making.
Title: Re: NEVER SHALL WE DIE - The Vanquisher
Post by: Hptm. Streiger on 13 July 2021, 07:56:28: Well, I started to make 3d models to create artwork for my "own" universe. But because I had little experience and no talent when it came to drawing, I started with BattleTech projects.
Till 2018 I had not the means to create printable files, in 2019 I did my first and lost somehow the reason why I started to do 3d models in the first place.

As a 3d print file you need to do a lot stuff different compared to a "pure" render or high poly artwork - that might be used for textures, details on the mini are ok for high resolution prints, but of course much larger then they should be.

Anyhow: a line art: (https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/5125da33-ebcb-4d0c-8ab1-22b2a857ba89/den92zw-132ade37-1ba2-48b1-b3d5-68faee57b9af.png/v1/fill/w_1280,h_720,q_80,strp/vanquisher_vqr_2b_by_karlstreiger_den92zw-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9NzIwIiwicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvNTEyNWRhMzMtZWJjYi00ZDBjLThhYjEtMjJiMmE4NTdiYTg5XC9kZW45Mnp3LTEzMmFkZTM3LTFiYTItNDhiMS1iM2Q1LTY4ZmFlZTU3YjlhZi5wbmciLCJ3aWR0aCI6Ijw9MTI4MCJ9XV0sImF1ZCI6WyJ1cm46c2VydmljZTppbWFnZS5vcGVyYXRpb25zIl19.iUmk4WHAQvqawtnJTyjOIPUVfHCqvpJDaxIgxc60-So)
