I have been busy on this as of late, I have claimed 53 and finished it. There are many pieces that need cleaned up and I have been doing that as well. I recreated 77, 60, 81, 36, 68, and 63 from scratch using the old pieces as a guide. I cleaned up part 12 and will either clean up or recreate part 15 and 91. I have also finished piece 20, I just used some of the geo from part 01 as a base. I will get to part 07 soon. Both part 18 and 71 created the bridge so I merged a bit of both of them together; both 17 and 85 did the same bit so I went with 17 because it had cleaner geo. Pieces 17, 18, 19, 34, 50, and 69 looked fine and needed no cleaning up. I stole pieces 14 and 81 then created them so they are finished. As of right now I am busy UVW mapping all of the above listed parts for texturing.

>>162628
Pics or it didn't happen

>>162654
Well this one is a bit outdated, I had yet to create piece 14 and maybe some other things but here is my last test render. I have about 1/4 of it UVW at the moment. I hope to be texturing at the end of next week. I am just doing this for an hour or two each day.

>>162655

looks awesome

>>162628
it's not collaboration if you do it all yourself. you douche.

>>162657
I had to clean some pieces up or or recreate them to make the uvw mapping easier. I did my best to make sure the pieces I recreated looked just like the old ones.

Yeah, I remember this one... :)

As I mentioned in one of the old(er) threads, this has great potential, I am keeping my fingers crossed that it will be finished sometime in 2010.

Good job everyone who contributed to this and still continues to do so. Keep going!

>>162655
that is a fine looking texture

>>162669
>2010

haha.

>>162657
it's cool as long as he's piecing the parts together. Completely reworking parts is not.
not sure what you did there, but it looks awwright. don't do the recreate thing. Part of the fun is that everyone gets to join in, even the beginners.

>>162675
I don't really change their pieces in any significant way but I do recreate it from scratch in the same exact way but with better topology, the pieces still look almost identical but are far less of a pain to uvw map as a result. The only time I will change something is to cut down on unnecessary polygon (stuff that would have been too small to have been seen in the final render) or to make it line up with the ref art more exactly.

>>162677
Keep it up bro

>>162675
>>162657
I don't have a problem with anyone reworking pieces (including the ones I did), as long as the reworked version is an improvement.

>>162655
Looking amazing. That illumination map has to go, though. Or maybe it just needs to be more subtle.

>>162709
Actually, on the topic of "reworking," I've noticed that some of the modelers were pretty lazy. Their pieces don't look bad, but there's definitely a lot of detail omitted. That giant "canopy" thing over the big lady-ball is a good example. In the drawing, there are some megaphone things and some lettered boards that aren't in the 3D object. I was thinking of doing some of these little missing pieces and uploading them as files like "Part_01_a," "Part_01_b," for example.

There are lots of these missing details to be found, so it might be an opportunity for anyone who is looking for a way to contribute, but isn't ready to claim a whole piece (or can't find a good unclaimed piece).

bump

what the fuck is this all about?

>>162628
Is this the most up to date list of what has been claimed / hasnt been claimed?

I've been wanting to contribute but worried about not being good enough. though now I want to try my hand at it, just not sure what's been taken and what hasnt.

I guess this means we're going to have to find a way to import this into a game engine soon.

>>163232
It is not set up to work as video game content, it would have to remade from scratch for that to be possible.

>>163255
>it would have to remade from scratch
i dunno about that
what makes you think that?

>>163255
Polygon galore is not a problem unless its to insanely much.
Baking can be done if there is to many texture types.
So.... what problems?

>>163256
The fact that the back half of the models do not exist, the fact that lots of stuff just floats in space, the fact that as soon as your perspective changes there is huge gaps where there is no content, the fact that the texturing is too low res to get up close to, the fact that the polygon count is way to high, the fact that there is too much intersecting geometry, and the fact that everything is not to scale.

>>163259

>half of the models do not exist

I chose something i could do decently, and hasn't already been made, but has been claimed, so sad face if my model doesn't get accepted D:

I stared at this image stoned for about 20 minutes just now and then it dawned on me.. where the fuck does everyone in this city park their cars? I don't see a single parked car in this image.

And even if a city could get this cluttered they'd have developed a public transport system way before then

>>164080
there are some boats and trams in the pic.

attached: retinex-filtered version (to get out the ambient lighting for better reference).

Been busy with school, but assuming i get the time, i'll start knocking off some of the claimed pieces by Saturday unless someone says otherwise. (i'll also unwrap them since i see that texturing has started)


And i thought that somebody had finished 6+55 already?

if 'knocking off' means unclaiming pieces that do not make any progress, please leave 43. i have it nearly complete, but currently missing the time to finish it.

can you link to the parts? so people can see them?
id like to look inside this thing, for learning

>>164473
mediafire.com/3collab02

I have another chunk ready for texturing. The two pieces I textured before this I had optimized to about 20k polygons and set on a 2048-2048 UV map and this one is no different; the parts add up to about 20k and are on a 2048-2048 texture. I will finish piece 07 off and then UVW map the pieces behind the area I just did, it will be in the same ball park for poly and texture size. (I try to break it up into equal sized spaces of the final render) I have been doing my best to really optimize this as best as I can so that there is head room to add smaller scale details later such as people, more ships, cars, and other doodads.

I am not sure when I will get around to texturing this, maybe right away, maybe after I finish and UVW the next piece, who knows.

>>164473
Here are all the parts as of the moment http://www.mediafire.com/3collab02

>>164476
>>164475
bah, cant properly play with them on blender. i have to resize them down. clipping is too much.

anyone know how to make it infinite?

>>164478
Just scale the models down.

lol this will never get finished. just give up.

>>164461
>>164461
Well i'm starting by taking claimed pieces going from lowest to highest numerically, but i'll be sure to skip 43 for you.

>>164566
Skip 29 as well, i'm still here.
still dicking around with the model.

43 is done.

I have been following these threads since their inception, and am now living in castle built from the bricks I've shat after seeing your collective progress. Keep being awesome; you guys rock!

>>165618
I'm doing the exact same thing.

Quite impressing how productive this board is.

there doesnt seem to be any unclaimed pieces

assumed unclaimed areas?

>>165679
Some of that stuff is claimed and finished.


Pieces 02, 06, and 40 should be the main focus of anyone who wants to take a claimed but unfinished piece.

bumping

so this project seems dead

>>168079
and yet it gets updated

Haven't been here in a few good months and I should apologize for that. Kept a few pieces for a guy I knew was really into modeling but a few months later and he still doesn't feel like starting anything. So I'll just free them now while there's still time. In any case, the pieces I was talking about were 14 and what's left of 72. Sorry for keeping them for so long bros. Also thanks >>162628 for picking up at least some of it already.

>>168079
its been going for months and months, it will never die.

>>169137

Gotta keep this one alive.

>>165679
At first i thought you were trolling.

Anyway there are still some fun models to model in this image. one huge tree on the top left side. a train model on the mid-right. and some tunnel-ey buildings that shouldn't take too long to build.
start claiming this shit, let's keep the pace high.

Bump.

What happened to texture guy?
Anyone else going to pick up where he left off?

>>171719
I am still here, just have not had time to work on this for a while. I am sure I will get back into it sometime in the near future.

>>171738
Lookin' good

Bump.

I have the strangest feeling that this is really one big plot from Ms. Reiu herself to get /3/ to do her work for her. If you look at her notebook, she actually does some 3DCGI stuff too...

Also on a side note I will do some work on this sometime in the nearish future.

This needs an update. Is anyone still working on this project? the last update about it was like ~20 days ago.

It's chugging along at it's own, snail-like pace, but it'll get done eventually.

Bumping the awesomeness

Keep up the good work.
/3/ gets shit done.

Really awesome work

I hope to god this will eventually be finished.

I love this so much i have even printed it out on A3 photo papar from a professional and framed it.

It hangs on my wall now and i look at it every day. This is my ultimate dreamworld.

Who doing the textures?

>>181592

This guy was doing them:
>>162655
>>171738

And he was very talented. I think he got busy with other stuff and hasn't been back in a long time. I did a few of the models but am not a texturing bad-ass, otherwise I'd pick up where he left off. I thought about giving it a shot but his textures are just way too good.

If someone else feels like they could do good work, that would be sweet.

>>173137
wow i love this womans work. theres some dinotopia levels of creativity going on here. i love that its not 'cyber' aswell, i think my favorite thing about it is that theres no fucking gundamns floating around in the background. this woman could art direct a bitchin video game.

just so long as it wasnt a jrpg.

this is like /pco/ trying to finish the timmy turner comic. in that i suspect noone is working on it because they dont think anyone else is working on it. People, if youve done something for this, post your WIPs.

can someone upload the latest version of OP's image? So i know what's been done/not done?

Is it possible for me to use blender and export a .dae for
someone to apply textures to? I dont know how to paint
and apply textures properly in blender textures in blender.

Lol I really should get back to work on this I have been slacking off big time. If anyone wants to paint the sign (with the person in it), or the satellite it would save me some work.


>>182548
02,06,40 all need done whoever claimed them never came through, there are other unfinished pieces as well but those three are the most interesting ones to do.

hopeful bump

where are the texture guy now?

>>184075

I am here, still working on texturing this piece, the bulk of the work is done and now I am just trying to make it look lived in. That is a slow process because I need to keep going back over areas and changing the wear and tear until it looks natural, also I need to strike a balance between old and newer. Here is where it is at ATM but many of the areas have more wear than they will in the final version, I find it easier to add lots of wear and then start to take some away until it looks right.

>>183889
Great job on the model, of course it will be included.

>>183148
I did not create the water wear mark it is a free decal from cgtextures.com which I have been making heavy use of.

Wow I forgot all about this. It's not done yet? Shit.

>>184144
easy on the sa and 4chan refrences bro.

Good to know that the texture guy still here, he bringing life to this models, thank you!

http://www.mediafire.com/?2919wgkw2cerace
I don't know if i just used shit modelling techniques or if something went wrong with the export to obj but there are double faces everywhere! I've got most of them cleaned in maya, and they don't show in the render so i hope you guys won't mind. I worked on it a little bit in maya rather than cinema to get it within the poly budget and did the animation with maya. Hope this'll do.

>>184290
lol, this is why we don't have cool shit in real cities. damn science always getting in the way.

I want to be strapped into one of those things facing downwards when it flings you over and around.

Best ride ever.

Who is the ORIGINAL creator of this drawing?

OK this piece is textured, there is a bit more that could be done but I am gonna leave it rest for a while and come back to it (and my other textured pieces) after I have some other pieces so that I can view them with a fresh perspective then I will polish them up a bit more.

sup guys, love what youre doing.
does someone have a render with everything done so far?

>>184297
durr nvm

Send me that i can render this with top quality

>>184304
http://www.mediafire.com/?b931ak8ukw7pa

I had to upload this in pieces because my internet is acting up and would shit out when trying to upload large files.


The .OBJ file has several objects:

Collab Textured 001
Collab Textured 002
Collab Textured 003
Random Parts
Ref Plane
Camera


The camera model is so you can figure out where to put the camera and target point, the ref plane uses the ref plane texture (it is the collab image) so if you want to add more pieces you can line them up. The Random parts are the grey bits from my render and the three collabs are the textured bits of course.

>>184318
Oh I should also note that the camera had a 24mm lens (73.74 fov) and my render aspect ratio was 2800w-1600h (1.75 ratio).

completed the 3rd person

reference image was really weird, so maybe the model needs a bit of cleaning up

all people in the lower right corner completed

I came on /3/ just to see how this was going, while I don't model (more like I just suck at it) I'm watching this project! Good luck anons.

Lovely project guys, I'm relatively new to 3d and /3/ and this is really inspiring.

Might be a stupid question, but can I participate as Cinema 4d user? Because I've never seen the object-extension in Cinema 4d..

>>184925
you mean obj?

But hey, go ahead and model some shit. It doesn't really matter what application you use, have fun yo.

>>184925
You can export as Wavefront obj. But I'd suggest you get the Riptide exporter by Spanki to export OBJs in Cinema.

>>184290
Why would you think this is acceptable?

Also I would love for the original artist to see all the work thats gone into this. Would be cool to know what he might say,

This is really cool stuff, guys. I was into 3dsmax couple years ago, but other stuff interferred with my time and I kinda just forgot about it, but recently I've gotten the interest back. I'm just waiting to order a new comp that can run it smoothly. How long has this project been going on? I'd really like to participate in something similar in the future

>>185485
Why wouldn't i?

either way, this person isn't going to be able to take credit, not when so many people are involved and some of these threads get archived/saved

>>184479
>>184369
why are they so fat

>>185529
coz they're fat in the reference image?

Texture guy here with an update. I have been working on cleaning up part 29, I got it down to just under 10k polys from 30k without removing any real detail. The topology on this piece was really messed up and there were countless faces flipped backwards, isolated vertexes, faces with zero area so on and so forth. I had to recreate all the geo, following the exact dimensions of the original, to get it cleaned up.

Now that that is finished I downloaded the piece next to it part 24 and surprise, surprise, 23k for something that should be under 3-5k max. There are so many wasted polygons on this piece as well. Also once more when I turn on backface culling there are faces everywhere flipped the wrong way. I will have to recreate this mesh next to get it cleaned up to where it needs to be.

Sometime soon I hope to find the time to go over every submitted piece and from a fresh version of the collab picture paint the finished pieces one color, the pieces that are fine but need uvw mapping another color, and the pieces that need cleaned up/recreated another color. All claimed and unfinished pieces will be left blank.

Holy shit that's awesome!

Whoever did the texture job on this is awesome.

i hate to be a dick, but low quality texturing will kill this.

the reason i suggested no textures when i came up with the other arbitrary guidelines was that it would be a lot quicker, and we'd get a much higher quality, if we made the models, put together a scene, then rendered out ambient occlusion and a lighting pass.. then use those to composite a base which we could get someone from here or another board to do a paint-over.

the quality will be much higher, rather than using photoslapping on models that are most likely unoptimised, horribly modeled and not made for texturing.

i mean, go ahead and unwrap a hundred shitty models but i think it's a waste of your time, unless you really want to do it for experience and learning. otherwise we should just focus on the modeling, run it through some good rendering and post-process the rest.

my 2c

Details multiplied by a number of free choice would make
plan of a complex scene ready in a flash .

bump

> mfw this is actually getting done

>>186090
Wouldn't a paint-over be skipping the entire point of this?

Could just paint-over the original image without doing all the modeling work.

A paint over would never look right, if you cut corners it shows.

i fucking love you OP, thats my wallpaper and this shit is looking fucking awesome

Oh no what happened to the textures! The original sketch shows bright, clean colours. A city that was looked after but not completely free of grime. I look at the current renders and it looks like Half Life 2. What's with all the dirt?

>>162383

this is looking incredible OP

I had no idea stuff like this was done here. If I wasn't in school, I'd contribute. It would really help with my modeling =P

I can't to see the finished product, keep up the good work everyone =D

Also stopped by just to agree with this... That dude's the man and I'm the dude who drew the picture of the chick on the big ball. His "aging" of the textures is what makes it all work. I dream of the day that this actually gets finished. WE LOVE YOU TEXTURE GUY

Did u said that are 70% done? i think was about 30% max

MFW this entire project is pointless because it's only done to look good from one side which is the original perspective, also image is "ripped" for the new textures, making the new work a bland and tasteless ripoff of original and about as impressive as a tracing.

>>189421
yep. do this op. time to take names.

There is no OP, there is no one in charge, if you want it done then just do it. If you see something that could be done to further the goal of getting this done simply do it.

>>189514
i know, but let's wait a while, let's see what the other side of the world says about this. it was suggested earlier and people got all mad. I think it's less of an issue this time around because there are virtually no updates. Let's get the project rolling again.

You should get an archive so the links at the top of your posts are actually meaningful.

bump for moar free .obj

Go to hell damn leecher noob, u scum useless

Texture guy here, I have been busy working on the middle area. I have been cleaning up other peoples content and figuring out how to get it all to line up in a realistic way. Seeing as this is based off of a drawing there is some perspective issues that cause some optical illusions that are not possible to resolve. The most notable is under piece 29 where I had to move the fish pillar/building closer. This is not too bad of a compromise as it helps give 29 some support; it was kinda floating in mid-air before that.

I had a LOT of cleanup work to do on these pieces but I was able to shave off 89,581 polygons to get the bits I have done down to 34,547. The render above has some finished pieces in it, some I have not started to clean up yet, and some blocked in bits for content that has yet to be created.

Here is the difference in polygon counts:

24: 2,048 - 23.928
39: 1,227 - 6,518
76: 1,900 - 5,988
41: 11,926 - 34,100
38: 1,282 - 2,759(5,384)
29: 10,474 - 27,918
86: 4,070 - 19,341
91: 1,620 - 3,576

(cleaned up/ original)

I tried to stay as true to the original piece as possible but sometimes that was not possible because of alignment issues or the detail was just too small to be seen and did not need to be there.

As you can see everything is starting to line up well. I still have a bunch more work to do in this center area but I am well past the half way point. You can download everything you see here from this link:

http://www.mediafire.com/?g9q29ne9k28d4dr

I am probably forgetting to say something, my mind is kinda mush after working on this all day.

>>190086
Dude you're the greatest, that is ridiculously awesome.
I could feel your mad when you mentioned cleaning up my shit,
it was my first model, sorry 'bout the extra work.

Is the cleaned version in the mediafire folder? I'm really curious to see the things you worked on and it'll be a great way to learn too.

>>190115
Yeah all the cleaned up bits, blocked in bits, and a few pieces yet to be cleaned up are all in that file above. If you look at my other link above here:

>>184318

The pieces I have lined up fit in with that.

>>190086
Favorite part, right here
I remember the guy getting all stressed out when he couldn't figure out how much steps to put in.

so is there any way we can, ya know, collaborate on the texturing?

>>190131
Yeah it is simple, you pick a piece and you texture it.

but how do we keep track of textures and uvs? texturefag seems to be using just a few large textures for many pieces and many of the pieces have been modified to reduce polycount since they were posted on mediafire

wow im kinda excitited too see where this is going :)

Here is a quick render with the textured bits.

>>190181
Massive, how long are the rendertimes so far?

Here is where things stand at the moment. The White bits are done; the cyan bits are cleaned up but need UVW mapping then texturing; the yellow bits need cleaned up, uvw mapped, and textured; and they grey bits are blocked out areas that still need to be created.


>>190216
That render took about 5 minutes.

So from the looks of it there is only one person who works on this anymore?

How long has this project been going? Because its look amazing, but I swear its been years now.

>>190571
Yeah man, pick any part that isn't finished yet and go for it.

Almost since the beginning of /3/, IIRC

As slow as this collab project is going it is still outpacing the speed of the collab over on polycount, a "true" 3d forum.

>shit is getting done
/tg/ here, we salute you t/3/apots

Texture guy here, I have to ask does anyone else have any intention of pitching in on this? I have been dumping huge amounts of time into this over the last several months and seen almost nothing from the rest of the board. If even two other people had put in as much time as I have over the past several months we would be close to done. There is no way I have enough patients to keep putting this much effort into this with so little help from the rest of the board.

Every group effort any board on 4chan has ever tried to pull off has failed, I would hate to see /3/ become as big of a failure. We need to regroup, organize, and get this done.

>>190858
Let me tell you what. Tomorrow, I'm going to set aside some time to help out. Once everyone's had a laugh at how awful it is, maybe they'll join in too.

>>190858
Well, lack of organization due to the structure of the board and anonymity is the main problem I guess. Nobody knows what the fuck anyone else is doing since there are no names.
I can't begin to imagine how much work has been done on this that simply never made its way back to the "headquarters" whereever the fuck those are.

Also good luck finding more patients, lol.

>>190858
I have frankly no idea what pieces I can start on.
Or where I can grab the latest updated version.
Or how I can upload my piece of I finish it.
Tell us o master

>>190934
I was wondering that as well

The most needed bits to be created are 02,06, and the 14-48-25-40-35 area. Lots of pieces need cleaned up as can be seen in
>>190503

If you want to do UVW mapping then ask the texture guy for a cleaned up piece from
>>190503

>>190912
Go petition Easymodo or green-oval, then at least you'll have an idea of which thread what happened in where.

I need 10cc of participation STAT.

Don't you dare die on me thread. --clear--

bump.bump

Whew, OK this thread is back in the clear.

How about a paid SVN repository to get this work done?

first off, you guys need to get this up as a sticky. no point creating a new thread over and over again.

second, get a tripcode. gay as hell, but at least we can put the names of whoever is contributing in the sticky.

third, people who volunteer have to contribute.

i can't believe no mod has actually helped out in this massive project.

>>193212
There are/were no mods
And deadlines, seriously. We suggested that you have to post updates every now and then. The guy that didn't like that idea was trolling. Bigtime.

Piece 90 is the most needed piece to be completed at the moment. I am still busy cleaning up the bits in the center, getting everything there to line up, to support each other in a realistic way, and filling in some gaps in with content. If anyone wants to tackle that piece I can upload the blocked in version.

>>193212
we've been at this for like half a year now, and we've been fine without a sticky
>>193216
90 says its been completed in the OP, what do?

>>193231
If it has it never got uploaded here

http://www.mediafire.com/3collab02

If anyone has it then maybe they could upload it somewhere.

OK looking through thread 11 on http://www.mediafire.com/3collab02

It seems several pieces that got finished are not in the 3collab02 folder.

Here is a job for someone who wants to help but does not want to model:

Go through all the threads archived at http://www.mediafire.com/3collab02 and look for links for any finished pieces that are not in the /3collab02 directory and make a post here with all the links and what parts they are.

>>193239
Hey could you make an updated image? (check the finished parts and shop the claimed area's that nobody is working on out.)

>>193241
Looking at the 3collab2 folder the mixdown.obj has part 90 but it is very sloppy and is missing way too much detail to be used. If you want a part I suggest redoing that one.

>>193239
When thats done, i will put those pieces in the folder (or search the missing ones myself, if i find the time).

>>193243
got my trip wrong

Getting closer to having the middle area done. I have most everything cleaned up. Working on incorporating part 31 ATM. Here is a quick AO render of where things are right now.

>>193537
>>193537
>>193537

Looks sick, can you post a top down render just for shits and giggles?

I think this is awesome but i lack technical ability. Good luck guys and thanks for doing this.

>>193537
glorious

You're probably already aware of this, but there's something going on here.

>>193537
FUCK YOU PART NUMBER 06 FOR SITTING THERE UNCLAIMED AND TAUNTING ME

If I finish the work that I need to get done today, I will do piece 06 tomorrow.

all hail tg

>>193772
oh look this old troll attempt again.

HOLY CRAP THIS IS STILL GOING ON? i helped out when it first started like a frikkin year ago.

wait i take that back more like 2 or 3 years ago.

>>193784
This board is only a little over a year old. Also yes it is still going on because only one person is working on it anymore and then only part time.

whats generally the procedure for getting started with building something like this from a perspective reference?

>>193778
THIS IS SO MUCH DEBATED
THIS IS THE CORRECT VERSION
I FUCKING LOVE YOU

>>193794
the propeller gives it away. it's clearly diminishing towards the vanishing point on the left.

>>193794
Sure samefag, you need to be less obvious. All these threads go weeks or months without anyone talking about it then over the course of a few hours several posts are made about it each time. If you want to hide you samefagging a bit better at least space out your posts over the course of a few days so it fits in with the normal flow of the thread.

>>193794
game me lulz

>>193798
damn you caught me. I spent about 10 minutes of my time to demonstrate the proper way to view the image with red lines and some shading, and then after 1 hour and 6 minutes when no one had congratulated me I took off the trip code and patted myself on the back with an image macro.
Then I cleverly waited precisely 12 minutes to respond to my self made compliment to comment on how I deduced my findings. Thus bringing the illusion of someone talking to me full circle.
why you ask?
Because I found out the duchess took me out of the will, and I knew the only way to get my inheritence was to samefag and have her add my persona to her estate, but your crack internet sleuthing found me out.

>>193794
>>193778
FUCKING GOD DAMN YES

I've been bitching about this shit for thirteen threads, finally someone agrees with me, I've been saying since that started up that it was wrong perspective, but that dipshit just didn't want to listen "hurdur i mdul it liek dis cuz poorspective derp" jesus fuck if I could punch him with my mind.

I can provide the commercial SVN for this project, but i need all pieces. Want?

why doesnt anyone fix the goddamn fan? it's clearly oriented in the wrong direction and if you can't see that from the original pic, you shouldn't be doing 3d.

now someone fix the fan, it really isnt tham much work. being oriented like that, it really stands out.

>>193774
What the fuck anon? I'm no samefag and even less a troll. I appreciate to anyone who contributed to this glorious project, but that fan is clearly facing the wrong way. Look at the center of the propeller, the red cone, and look how that (metal) ring overlaps it on the left. Also, look at the interior of the fan, there is no way it is being oriented from right to left. For fucks sake, ask the original artist and any professional 3dcg artist.

There's my precious 10 minutes. I would never spend 10 minutes for a bad trolling attempt, but I would if I saw a 3dcg board being so wrong.

You guys are fucking with my mind with this Escher shit.

Texture guy here, if someone wants to change the fan piece they should stop bitching and do it themselves. There are many pieces with far larger issues that still need my attention. That piece is one of the few that was actually created with clean geo so it is low on my list of pieces that need my attention. Also I fail to see why that piece creates such a shit storm when most every piece I have gone over has had huge difference from the the reference image as well.
