My first decent model!!! no texture :(

716898--25984--$Shrine model screen.png
Took me all of yesterday to do it and i used spline modelling for the first time the centre peice was made with spline modelling and the top and bottom bits of the collum were also “splined”:smile:

I cant really judge myself if its a good model or not so your opinions are apreciated

Looks pretty good , even untextured :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks Will :slight_smile:

Looks extremely high poly, but good!

yes its around 60,000 poly but someone told me i should make a low poly copy and bake the high poly detail onto the lowpoly model thus rendering a very nice low poly model, but i would have no idea how to bake model details onto one another? :o

Yes quite high poly, this is a job for a normal map and AO map, otherwise youre going to be stuck unwrapping a load of geometry

yes i can probably reduce the polys abit by removing unnecesary edge rigns cause my the spline modelling because i used a lathe modifier and every piece that was spline modelled is about 10k poly alone

It’s a nice looking model! Would look pretty nice on a low poly with normal map I think. BUT!

I don’t know how many times I’ve had to say this, but showcase is about showcasing your games! This isn’t an art forum! Try polycount.net forums if oyu want really good C&C! Or post in gossip!

I have just finished a very simple chair

oh sorry i just thought this would be the most appropriate place to post it

Sketchup with the “Sketchy Physics” plugin allows me to make really good models in a VERY short time. In Blender, you can do a lot also but there is a MUCH steeper learning curve to get over so taking models I make in Sketchup and polishing them with Blender works well for me.

What Polycount would be appropriate for this model to be in game without hindering performance?

Dude, my level is not even 60,000 polys.

You could probably get away with some hundred, or maybe a thousand or two on your model.
All you need is a clever Normal Map bake. depending on your situation, you could even bake it to a plain cylinder

This just made me laugh out loud:

^^ thought about that

Yeah poor timing in that post

sorry double post
