made my own. I used Krentz's pyro as my baseline.

I modeled it as one unit. Then I thought... hey I have a minute why not start working on an explodeable pyro :)

This is not related to the \"Pyro on your desk\" thread :D

And here's how my explodable is progressing.
Now be gentle I am no artist.

Ok, I know I need to work on those intake fans ;)

I split the potential model fabrication into a different thread.

Nothing really Bubba just got bored the other day. Thought I would create an assembly of a pyro. I might continue adding everything or just stop there. I wanted to make a 3d frame and skin it but not sure I'll ever have time.

I was able to work with the Hi-Rez Pyro-GX file I'll use it to make the models if I can get Eagle to approve using it.

Bubba,

Sounds great, please export it to STL highest resolution you can. If you can size it to 7-8 inches great if not I'll get the SLA house to do it. Assuming I can pull it off I'll set you up with a casted pyro. Email it to koolbear*no-spam*@gmail.com


Would you mind posting this in the other thread? ...
viewtopic.php?t=12239 that way other people can follow our conversation. After that I will remove these posts from this thread :)

I'll continue my efforts on my personal model.

Any rich people out there want an SLA model instead of a casted one? :P

PM sent KB.

I love Bubba's pyro!
Looks really good, but I also like Eagel's model as well.
I guess because it has the missiles attached to the fins. :)

Alrighty then, remember this isn't part of the Pyro on your Desk discussion.

This is a bored Descent'r that is modeling a Pyro that is made of parts. As time progresses more detail to be worked out.

I have a model of a MS 3D Preciosion Pro that I think I will work into this model ;)

Looks good, why is the person so big though?

Also what program did you use, and where did you get the Recaro seat?

The person is 6' tall so I guess my pyro is too small :P I wan't sure what the actual dimensions of the pyro were. I was actually suprised that I was as close as I am ;)

Solidworks 2007 an engineering design tool (not a graphical tool) I am also a Pro-Engineer dood :)
The seat I downloaded from the Solidworks user shared files.

Looking pretty good. Front looks too smooth though. BTW, I wouldn't worry about the size of the guy inside. Maybe a little smaller. No one really seems to know how big the ship is. I like them to appear to be a little smaller. :) It's not the Millennium Falcon. It should be compact. Just the nose looks disproportionate and too round.

Orb looks good. what are you modeling these with? I actually need a better orb for in-game. :) But I've had trouble trying to get the UV's to match up correctly on sphere models. Could you show me the UV layout for the sphere?

V,
Thanks, I am using Solidworks to model and then it's internal rendering engine. Actually I haven't rendered anything these are straight shots from the shaded mode.

The shield orb is a ball with a texture, surrounded by a thin wall hollow ball with a texture applied to a trnsparent surface. I am clue with the UV whatchamacallit thingymabob ;)

I figure it's a fighter so smaller. I might scale him down a wee bit but he fits my seat ;)

A start to the dashboard...

A skinned mega...
