Keiphus Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 This was one of the wierdest things I've had to model.... The entire thing was made from a 2D plane, just as you would fold it in real life. At first I figured it would be pretty easy, I just had to follow the instructions in my origami book. I don't think I could have been more wrong... :-P After folding, slicing, and bending points all over the place, I finally got to a point that looked presentable and I called it done.. It could still use alot of work if I were picky... Again, this was all done "2D" so to speak... Questions and comments welcome and appreciated. I wish I had more time to work on my modeling, I really enjoy doing it but I don't have much time to.... Oh, and here is a polymodel of it... I did this afterwards to see if I could make it look any better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk8erfreak Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 That looks really good, nice work. It almost looks real... Its pretty cool you could do that, since I don't even know how to make one out of paper! Nice. 136 Combat, 2290+ Skill Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrothKahn Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Thats an incomplete oragami crane, the top/back of the crane should be a box shape not a pyramid. The wings are also a bit too high up. But you said you weren't so picky so I guess it's excusable, kinda. Apart from that, its pretty neat :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from that, its pretty neat :)\ na theres two types of cranes u can make, one with the box back and one that you can make the wings flap.

JD77 Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 that owns lol, btw how much time did it toook to make? 3d max right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keiphus Posted May 12, 2005 Author Share Posted May 12, 2005 Maybe like 2 hours making the thing in real life and then modeling... Modeled in Softimage|XSI.... actually could have taken longer I don't really remember... Froth, the one you speak of is a different one, or that's when you blow into the bottom and it inflates... I have 3 of them I made sitting here on my desk from an instruction book, and that's exactly how it came out in paper.... Thanks for the comments. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tttia Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Pretty cool :) And it won't bend fold or become mutilated! I would think that would be a pain to do in 3d. Of course...everything seems a pain to do in 3d to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiphus Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 I think doing a proper light setup for someting like this is almost as hard as modeling it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeron Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 doesn't really look like paper, but aside from that its a 9/10... try to make it on a wooden table or sumthin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keiphus Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 doesn't really look like paper, but aside from that its a 9/10... try to make it on a wooden table or sumthin.. Too overdone.... looks fine like this I think. It would take all of 2minutes to slap a wood texture on there, and it would only detract from the model. Thanks Freesy.
