Yeah, so I'm really not a good 3D modeler, but I decided to try and model a bit more with Blender3D. So here's my attempt at an Allied Cruiser from Red Alert. And yes, I know that there's no anchor, no propellors, the bridge/midship part is not exactly the same as it was in-game, and that it's not perfectly flat. But I've never done much before, so I just wanted to know what you people thought. Rocked Over

And FYI, this is the pretty much the only RA refrence that I used, I'm afraid that I had to steal the rest of the design from thi picture of the Bismarck.

w00t?

Dude theres alot of areas where it looks pretty dodgy, and many wasted poly if its ment to be low? The overall thing isnt that bad just needs a little work.

It's pretty good. Blender is difficult to get used to if your native program is 3D Studio Max. It's sooo different.

I use blender! Can you make .gmax or .w3d files with it? And how did you make those chains?

Wasted polys? yeah, probably. Whats That

Though I don't know how to count the polys with Blender, so I'm not worrying about it. Rocked Over

And the chains, I just made a chain link with a cube I extruded into a rectangular shape, duplicated it, roated it along the X axis (or Y, depending on what you prefer) doubled it several times, and shrunk it down.

And as far as I know, you can't make .w3d or .gmax files with it. Or, for that matter, any file that GMAX will open. =/

w00t?

If you can export to .3ds there is a 3DS importer for GMax
