Landram MkI
on: April 11, 2009, 01:30:49 pm
Here's my first model i'm going to release ( once my mission is complete ).

It's a Landram from the BSG universe.
It's not 100% perfect, but it will do for now.  :D

I'm about to start UV-ing and texturing it, what i've never have done before, so i'm thankfull for any tips and tricks, that are not mentioned in the walkthrough on Karajorma site.

awaiting feedback... :)

Looks good :) As for Texturing, make sure you do a good UV Map. If you do, then you will save yourself lots of trouble making the textures. There is a tutorial stickied in this very forum. Read that to get some ideas. Good luck! :)

Uhmmm not quite, if anything it looks like one of those things they use for getting around in arctic environments, and those also have two sets of treads.

Great Start... Good to see some TOS stuff again!

Actually, there are no errors in the mesh. The mesh is a error... :P
I use Truespace 3.2 and 3DSmax 9.
Btw, thx for your UV tutorial, i bookmarked it and Scooby's tut too!

Not this one, but the V2 for Diaspora will have a cockpit, so you can cruise on the Asteroid. :D

In TOS they only use it briefly twice, both times at night or Snowy and then only show crappy views of it...
Sorry I couldn't find anything more useful.

IDK they used it in the new series, I must have missed that ep. Cool!

It appeared in "Scar" first, I believe, crawling around the mining ship.

Yeah, they're only ever seen as CGI models in brief establishing shots in various Galactica episodes. Often on Galactica's hangar deck.

Your pics are usefull, the more reference pics for the basic shape i have the better.
For v2 i'm aiming for the following look, i found that on Deviantart, the Landram looks like the mean future version of a Humvee. :D

I'll use that pic for the details, not sure if the RIS Landrams are armed, tough:

Actually those two renders are from a model I made based on IIRC a physical airfix kit released years ago.
