Jaws - Free Shark Model - 05/25/06 09:03

HI all,

here goes another one from my model workshop: A shark model. As always: free to use.. no credits required.

How it was made: I looked for picture of a shark mesh at turbosquid and used it as a background picture for reference in MED.

The model has no animations.

Happy Father's day

Thanks everybody,

you're right Frazzle.. the face is a little blurry and the teeth are not modeled.... I got a little lazy in the end :-). That's my big problem... my professional workload (that's what I make a living from) keeps increasing almost weekly and keeps me from playing around with gamestudio.

Best regards
Rince

Re: Jaws - Free Shark Model - 05/28/06 06:53

mp40s are good, I just don't know how many differnt Desert Eagle models i have picked up in the past couple years but its more then Anyone would ever need.

Re: Jaws - Free Shark Model - 05/28/06 07:25

That's true,

I've also seen a lot of Desert Eagles on this forum. That's why I try to concentrate on other models. Currently, I am working on the "Big Boy" steam locomotive in a "Union Pacific" Version, one of the biggest steam locomotives ever.

I am also grateful for any proposals on which models people on the forum need, so I can observe any wishes for my future model plans.

Good morning to everybody. Hope you have a nice sunday.

@Grimber
You're right about the desert eagles, I just searched
for a desert eagle in the search topic, the result was:
ALOT OF DESERT EAGEL TOPICS

yay there actually reads Suomi

Re: Jaws - Free Shark Model - 05/28/06 19:53

Thanks, Frazzle, you're being very kind.

I always look to build models that complement what already exists in mdl. To that extent I am not as creative as you think, as I didn't invent the originals I build the models from.

I actually know where Antwerpen is. I live quite near to the Belgian and Dutch border - about 80 km from Aix-la-Chapelle or "Aachen" as we call it.. so I am not too far away from you.

Re: Jaws - Free Shark Model - 05/29/06 19:22

@Inestical
I actually pick a random map of Europe on google

Btw, how do you know it's Suomi ??

@rincewind
No problem man, you don't have to be that modest

You're just a great modeler !!!!

So you don't live to far from me, hmmmm maybe you should search
Putte on Google Earth, that's my hometown

Or we could maybe even meet each other ??

You are the first "NON BELGAIN OR NEDERLANDER" how said something in Dutch

Dear Rincewind,
As always, a very nice model, my friend.
I don't have a use for it at the moment, but downloaded it anyway.
Hope this finds you well.
Best regards,

Dear Jim, thanks for your kind words again. Gonna write you an email this week, as we haven't heard from each other for a while.

@ Rincewind
All�, ik zal't terug in't Engels typen:
You clever boy

Posted By: rincewind

Re: Jaws - Free Shark Model - 06/01/06 20:26

yeah let's get back to English. I wouldn't call it cleverness. Actually it is nothing to be proud of. I didn't have to work for it. It is just there, like some strange skin disease, you can't get rid of. I was simply lucky, that's all.

Back to topic: I hope to be able to provide some more models in the future. And there will be a large model pack again for Xmas, with models for general purposes, like sci-fi elements that you can combine to build something else. I guess that could be quite helpful.

That's actually the way the 3d models for the movie "Robots" was made. They had to build a complete city in 3d and found that it was an enormous effort. So they came up with this idea: Instead of building each model separately for each scene, they decided to build general purpose components like screws, crossbeams, springs etc. and put them into a virtual warehouse. This way, they could build numerous models out of the same components and create the complete city in one and not just individual scenes. So I think providing elemental, modular models in addition to speciality models would be a good idea.
