My god this will look beautiful

So like 40 people have one model each.... how's the plan to get them to others/one person?

>>20627


most of them are uploaded already..

>>20627
THE PLAN!

we will share them on that thing called the “Internet” or also known as "A Series of tubes"

>>20630

you are a dick

>>20629
Don't get ahead of yourself, only 19 have been upped so far.

Also penis did you manage to update the 51? Since there was a v2 posted in the last thread.

i just finished my render now i am up for some collaboration.

>>20635 nice bongs btw.

>>20633 where can i find the upped?

for those who missed the 4th thread
http://www.mediafire.com/?zm2mzyzt45t

also could some anon please post a list/make one with all the finished pieces?

just to make sure we dont forget/miss someone (with all the shitstorms in here)

>>20648
These are the ones I have collected so far
http://www.mediafire.com/3Collab01
>>20633
I missed the later half of the last thread since I was at a Lan party
whats this about 51 ?

http://www.mediafire.com/?w3iklwglnym

>>20663
V2's been posted.

mf
http://www.mediafire.com/?inytrduu4in

also >>18735 since other thread is still up.

>>20668
>>20671
ah, thanks
uploaded them

>>20671
its on auto sage

>>20677
I know bro, that's why I made this one :3

>>20681
lol sry silly me

also ill do number 56

>>20719
thats a fuckin masterpiece

>>20722
i was thinking of sending it to the louvre

>>20684

Reminder for anyone getting anything new. 54 bailed and the number was left standing. So whoever might want to do 56, get 54 instead.

>>20738
no

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GY471QGA

there's 28

I'm on a school PC and can't download anything here. Can someone post a link of the completion so far? I'm a /ck/ lurker but wow. I saw this thread start up and I'm really interested to see how it's coming

i've just finished my first maya tutorials, if you want, i can to porygons =3 such as balls, cilinders etc, im the best, konami called me to work with them

>>20917
okay you go make 37 spheres of different sizes.

so basically this is max only?
I have maya and want to play this game but maya dont have .obj
lame

Here is 21#
http://filesmelt.com/dl/21-speaker.obj
any tips on #20 without using booleans?

>>20949
fail

>>20953
troll or not, just help. it might not help this guy but it could be useful for others
>>20949
this collab is program independent; obj is used because most any program can export to it.

to export to obj with maya you have to first enable the obj export plugin.
window -> settings/preferences -> plug-in manager

make sure objExport.mll is loaded (and automatically loaded if you desire).

it'll appear in the list of formats you can export to once you try to export your scene.

>>20962
oooooo, great success, thanks bro

>>20950

good work

>>20738
Where the fuck is 54? I've been staring down this image for 5 minutes and can't find it.

>>20990

I think it's gone, at least the one who picked it backed down, so it might have been removed from the pic

>>20991
Ahh, then I'll take this. Marked with 54.

k, im shotgunning no.11

Which of the reference images should we follow if there's a discrepancy?

good work so far boys :D

considering i have only just got on the bandwaggon, how long have we been doing this for?

>>21050
Considering that you can make out detail more easily in the daytime one, I'd try to use that one.

>>21052
What kind of method did you use to make those girders/metal supports?

57 i know you all were eying it

>>21095
Sheeeeeet nigra...

y the way, do we have anyone doing the lightbulbs and such? I feel like some of that shit should be uniform.

>>21104
if you want to pick them all out..

>>21095
>>21006

FFS PEOPLE USE THE UPDATED PICTURE NOT THE ONE OP POSTED
>>20684

keeping thread bumped

Noob here...

Why are you guys exporting to .obj ?

Is it the preferred file type? Cause when I import some of the files in Max, a few of the polygon faces are flipped and I have to manually flip them back to the correct side. Wouldn't .3ds be a better export type since I've never had that problem importing .3DS files. Again, I'm new to this so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

>>21539
>>21539
>>21539
>>21539
>>21539
>>21539
>>21539
>>21539


someone fix this

>>21539
Neither of those, but here's a fix. Also made 33 and 46 visible again.

Also >>21572
>noob
Could you at least use beginner or some other normal word bro? Thanks.

Anyway, from now on, for anyone interested update on the latest image. Thank you.

>>21572
correct me if i am wrong but isnt the .3ds file format something you can only use in 3d studio max?

if so there is your answer :)

everyone is using a different program, so exporting the file as an obj file seems to be the best way of doing this collab project

>>21579
thx

>>21580

I don't know but I've seen many non Autodesk 3d programs have the option to import 3DS.

>>21579
Forgot to mention some things. 57, I only marked that as you did. If you wanted the support columns as well say it while I'm at it, if not put them yourself later. Because someone might want to do them separately if you don't mark them... Though now that I think about it, didn't someone claim the columns next to 56 already? Or did he give up?

Anyway, and as for >>21572, I don't really work with 3D at all, but if I understand correctly, .objs or objects are a generalized extension that's supposed to be supported by mostly all 3D programs. Because bro, Max isn't the only 3D program out there.

Who's gonna make the trees?

>>21621
I have wondered about those trees, they are the size of fucking mountains.

>>21636
>>21621
If you mean the trees in the background, I'd just use a background image in the final composition. Or some random treegenerator (forgot the names of them)

>>21088
i didn't render it, but made the mesh.
i made a box to the height i wanted the supports, cut out the middle parts (using connect with edges set to 2), then made the X shape - and some triangular shapes to hide the seam where the X shapes met the longer poles, then i just duplicated them all the way up the length. and adjusted the longer poles afterwards.

then it was a case of attaching everything and just duplicating and rotating the one piece to make all the others.

it is rather messy and not something i would use for a game model (i would use the same technique but be less messy with the mesh).

Boat.

>>21731
Nice.

>>21731
very very nicely done

>>21731

that boat is nicely done, but what boat does it represent in the picture?

i thought we agreed not to texture :L

>>21878

I'm not even sure that boat was made for this project

>>21884
i hope not... because mine is crap compared to that one

>>21891

on the contrary, yours is true to the ones in the drawing

bump

so how far is everybody? can you guys give us a little update? especially 55,06,40 those pieces are huge with lots of details

Been showing all my coworker this thread the last couple of days. We're all really looking forward to see all your work!

53 here, I'm out. Thought this week was gonna be flush with free time and it's not.

and 58 is in!

I'll just grab 59 there... Looks easy.

>>22408
I'll take 53 then it will give me something to do.

#2 reporting in. I am pulling an all nighter at work tonight, will be working on this at some point. Cheers.

If possible can I grab something that I can start some texture work on?

>>22570
http://www.mediafire.com/3Collab01

All the finished geo is here so feel free to choose from any of it. We have yet to figure out how we will go about texturing it so we can not promise you if any texture work you do will get use or not.

>>22570
I wasn't sure we were or how we were doing that..

>>22592
We're waiting for the geo before texturing... right?

Also I figured I should load the nighttime version of this.

Also i've been working on comparing the rest of this artist's works and putting them together, I figure that all of the art in this similar style are part of the same city.

>>22531
I said I would take 53 but I am not sure if I can start on it until 29 is done and uploaded because they tie into each other so much.

>>22622
I'll resize the larger one I have (it's +3MB right now) and put it up if someone wants.

>>22627
Anyway here is the bit I was able to get done, the part does not look too hard so I can probably get it done in a few hours after I get my hands on part 29.

bumpen

hey bros, keep it going, work is taking up my time so i can't do too much today D:

always awesome

i just started modeling part-58... so what do you think guys? am i going in the right direction?

>>23147
Off to a good start, i'm not wild about that roof though.

>>23147
push it to the limit dude!!!!!!! ^^

>>23219
>^^

Quit that will you.

mr. part-07 are you here?

>>23289
You could've just left him the message while you were at it. Now if he gets here and you're out you've solved nothing.

bump

Any up to date WIP of the whole image with 3D overlay?

>>23298
i lol'd

bump

Well this is sure going slow. Though I guess that's a good thing meaning everyone's hard at work.

also >>23572
Never mind that, when it'll get done it'll get done. For now let's just let everyone concentrate on modeling. Since I can't model for shit and I'm watching from the sidelines, I just do small tasks like bumping this when it's this slow or fixing the reference image from time to time. Though now that I think about it I might be able to at least do that, but the only experience I've had is with Max and right now my space is such that I can't even install it.

So glad this is still going.

Talk does not cook rice.

>>23298
yes #7 here.

>>24456 can you upload your part i am doing part 58

just thought I'd drop in to say that this is project is awesome as fuck

keep being awesome

>>24488
like barney stinson

>>23282
He's probably from Germany, the German keyboard layout makes it really easy to write "^^", just 2 presses. That's also the reason why Germans use that shit so often.

>>24520
this guy speaks the truth

>>24520
Well everywhere else is just a matter of holding shift and making those two presses. And that's as mundane as capitalizing the first letter in a sentence. Though you might be right, since idiots that use "^^", most often than not leave their sentences uncapitalized.

So, who's going to do all the UV mapping / texturing for this?

;)

>>24586
you

>>24520
It's the same for all european keyboards ^^

It only has to look proper from the images perspective right? we could just planar uv the source image onto the entire scene =D

>>24660
meh

we can do better...
after all this IS 4chan! Home of the super villains!

>>24660
And where's the fun in that? I mean the artpiece wont change much from what it is now. Besides it will never exactly the same..

>>24795
Starting to fill out nicely. I only worked a few minutes on mine yesterday so no progress update, will try to fail less today.

>>22622
who is the artist?
where is his other art

>>25129

Search "imperial boy."

Here's a little update for part-58

has The main image been updated yet i cant see any difference, Im really hopeful for what its gonna look like.

c00l

I'll just mark 60 and take the sign right there.

>>25171
Looks good. Fix the smoothing groups/normals on your pipes though. I like the new roof a lot more :)

Will be working on mine shortly and posting it earlier as every other time I post the thread 404s overnight.

>>25352
>the thread 404s overnight.

You sure about that? /3/ is pretty damn slow. I mean thread 4, the one before this, hanged on for two more days after this was made.

>>25521
Yup, happened twice so far, this is the 5th thread remember.

Worked another hour on this. On Saturday I'll probably finish. finally broke the halfway poly limit mark.

>>25531

Well as I said, I've been here since the first one and all of them hanged on for quite a while after the next was created. Even the second one which I failed to archive. But that only happened because I kept postponing the archiving and then my net died for almost two days.

>>25542
This is #2 btw.

>>25542
Turning out neat bro, GJ.

ATT

you may have to reassign sections as some anons may forget/never do their part

just sayin

>>25552
Thanks' bro, having fun with it.

>>25555
Yeah, no doubt. The focus is still filling in all the areas though, after that we can consolidate and figure out which ones are AWOL.

>>25545
I agree with /3/ being slow, and I have a fucked up idea of 'overnight' because I frequently pull all nighters mind you.

progress report :)

>>25188
fucking progress!

OH GOD.

WITH MATERIALS THAT WILL BE PURE AWESOME.

>>26034
mmmhhh... materials

wow that looks amazing! it will be so cool when its done!

>>20599
whats the source of the picture? i want to use that for my desktop image

mmmhhh... bump maps

>>26335

what is this for?

>>26396
what is what for?

>>25735
Looking really good!

Can we get a text update? Like a list of all the parts done?

if i'm not mistaken, OBJ can retain texture mapping information.. then it's just a matter of loading the image in each program which is easier to do than re-mapping the whole thing

everytime an anon posts images of their progress they should put their part number in their name. Might make sorting this stuff a little bit easier.

after all this is done, what's gonna happen?

progress on no.11
feedback welcome

>>26593
Box is much longer in the photo and it looks like you're missing a board on the side.

>>26593
Just looks like the whole thing needs to be elongated.
Also, are these models going to be public domain,creative commons or what? Because if we don't clear that up we might have legal issues later on.

>>26594
i think it looks out of proportion because of the camera angle, but will look into it none the less.

also, am i the only person who wishes it was higher rez :\

also also, while on the topic, for ambiguous looking parts/ blurry bits, should we improvise and make our own designs. or are we sticking 100% to the artwork.

>>26605

I have already packaged all of the models done so far and am selling them in a pack on my website. Thanks suckas ! :D :D :D

>>26634
What might your website be?

>>26659

It's called Ebaumsworld3d.com

>>26677

Page not found.

???

>>26605
>legal issues
not to mention everyone here has a pirated copy

>>26593
You wanted feedback :3

also >>26634 >>26677
Oh get out faggot. Back to /b/ with you.

>>26605
>>26714

This is only /3/ related asshats. Project won't go anywhere else. Well except to the original creator or the image.

also
>everyone here has a pirated copy
And you think nobody knows and they'll suddenly find out or what?

>>26605

>legal issues

what are you 15

Bumpan.

This is coming along great, guys.

>>26605
>>26677
Made my day. I am filing a lawsuit to ebaumsworld3d right now.

>>26718
>implying i dont have legit copies of 3dsmax, zbrush, and photoshop

>>27504

buy me solidworks you rich fuck

pls?

>>27504
Pretty wicked if you have legit copes of those . Once I improve my set of skills with Cinema 4D, and.. well, get a job. I'll probably buy retail C4D.

>>27569
they're from school loans....so no...

Just wanted to say this is made of win.

any homepage to see the progress?

>>28064
http://www.mediafire.com/3Collab01

from the start of the thread

wow, I saw this a week earlier, but I never thought anyone would be organized enough to get this to go through.

props,

who ever is in charge should try to contact the original artist. I'm definitely sure the artist will provide materials and texture support.

>>28079
>>28079
>>who ever is in charge
>>in charge
>>in charge

who is the moderator of this project ?

>>28103
>green text using two greater-than signs

>>28156

you are

>>20599
Guys, i don't know how to use maya/3d max etc, i'm just here to say that what you guys are doing makes me proud i even visit this site.

Best of luck and i hope to see the final product soon.

There has been lack of progress the last several days. I think what has happened is that several people claimed pieces then became MIA. We need to put all unfinished pieces back up for grabs.

We should give anyone who is still working on a piece a day to state that they are still working on it and any numbered pieces that have not been finished or claimed to still be in progress should go back up for grabs.

>>28185
Where's the hurry bro? Nobody's MIA, they're just working on whatever they got. Add school and possible jobs they might have, and you know why there's not that much activity in the thread. So if you want to see this completed all you have to do, if you ain't contributing like they are, is wait and keep the thread alive. Which shouldn't be that hard since the board is nice and slow.

>>28257
>>28257
>>28257

This

>>28257
There is no rush but I would suspect at least one person has gone MIA and we need to find out who that is so we can pass the part on or the project will never be finished.

>>28322
what the fuck is MIA?

>>28326
Missing In Action

Menstruating in Action

>>28339
Masturbating in action

still interested in this one .. maybe I should dust off my skills and help

If i weren't as lazy and constantly high as i am, i would help you. I always dreamt of recreating this piece of art in 3D, but given the number of details i've never really saw that as possible.

Ok, well maybe you guys could need my help,,, i'll watch that thread...maybe i am willing to help later.

Also...great work so far guys.

>>28501
what ever this guy said

I got 61

anyone got a high rez version of the original?

>>28543
Well it should be free. Remember someone claiming it at the beginning but I think he dropped it. And 57 only claimed the upper structure without any columns.

Also >>28545
It's on danbooru. Either search it manually or stick these >>22622 >>20643 into iqdb.

Are we in any rush for these things?

>>28997
Modeling is really time consuming bro, and people might have school or jobs as well, so time's one thing we have plenty of.

>>28997
time has little sway in this board

I updated the image so it uses the full res day scene as a base. Its also color coded =D

I don't see anyone has taken 06 yet. O I will try to pull it off in 20k tris :-)

>>29217
Color-coding mean anything in terms of status.

Sorry, I was sick this weekend and didn't get jack shit done on #2.

---

As for who's in charge, I believe an anon started the first thread, but a name fag stepped in for gathering all the 3d objects. Anyone have snap shots of all the prior threads handy? I should probably keep a back up of them because I have nothing better to do with my life than f5 this board all day and will be around if anyone needs 'em.

>>29349
Forground elements should be allowed a higher count, so long as you use it appropriately. Hell, I have 10k left on my model, and will lend someone a portion of my count if they have a foreground element.

>>29351
>but a name fag stepped in for gathering all the 3d objects
yeah, that was me. I havent been on /3/ for the last week because I was pretty busy irl.

>>29351
Well except the second one that nobody seemed to have saved, I have both html's and captures of the threads so far. I could archive and up them on mf. Also penis if I'm not mistaking you were the one that made the mf collab folder where everything gets dumped. So you should put these there as well.

Great work guys! I am so psyched for this to come together. I've been wondering what this is from? Is it a movie?

>>29414
Well mf was working slow so I just left it overnight. Anyway here's the links:

4
http://www.mediafire.com/?zmmykdnwmnm

>>29217
can we mark the ones turned in asofar down the bottom?

>>30103
There we go. Checked what's been finished and put on mf. Also boxed the numbers so they'd be easier to handle.

oh wow you guys are awesome

>>30122
good job guy

>>29349
I thought everything tagged with a number had been reserved? The numbers ticked off are the pieces that are complete, not the sections assigned so far.

>>29351
The color coding was just to make things a bit easier to find. Each section is mostly colored so no adjacent sections have the same color ie so they are differentiated from one another.

Thought it was about time I grabbed a section. 42 now exists. Cleaned up some of the colors too.

bamf bump

>>30122
good job dude

>>30205

id like to get involved in this... ive been watching this thread evolve since /3/ was created.

in this image, are the check-marked numbes taken? completed? what do the colors mean?

tl:dr: i want to help, which part can i do?

>>30447

>>30451

Thanks for being friendly. I'm asking which parts are spoken for, or whats the reasoning for the colors aside from separating them visually. I'd like to help.. if you aren't here to help or tell me whats taken... then go back to /b/

>>30465
The colored parts with numbers are pieces other people have already taken. They aren't necessarily done, though I am (39). So if you want something, color it in, put the next number on it. I think that'd be 62.

>>30470

Thanks, will update momentarily.

>>30472
Also, what's done is checked in the boxes below.

>>30052
Thanks' Bro.

#60 here. I'm not that experienced so I picked an easy part, but I know I can do what I picked. I'll have it done by the end of this week at the latest, considering how busy I am irl.

>>30472
Did you pick a section yet?
