Comments and crits would be nice :) ill keep this updated.

Holy ****ing ****. Those are beautiful.

wtf I thought the soda was real LOL
It really looks like it !

Nice work man :O

What 3d software are you using?
Nice btw

Great stuff, you've really improved.

Looks like Maya...yea not bad :)

He owns you by far oO

This isn't pixel art :O


Also, why is the top of the can red? Looks good though.

So you designed and did everything on those pictures eh?

Clockwork :

Saying I designed everything would be unfair. E.g. The coca Cola logo was obviously designed by someone years and years and years before my birth, but I did recreate it if that's what you mean. Everything in the tank however is designed and created 100% by me. I took several photos of metal panels and merged them and worked it from there, yes the cross is also created by me.
As the can is meant to be a re-creation and not neccasarily a redesign, it was important that I only needed to get the modelling accurate.

Luda :

You're right, it isn;t pixel art (: I used to do that for Graal several years ago. Everything seems to be going in every different direction these days but one thing is commonplace - the 3D development. I guess we have to sink or swim with graphic design these days, so I decided to learn 3D too. I don't know what you mean by the top of the can beign red; but it is reflecting an environment around it. Maybe thats what's tinting it?

Fragman : That's not fair; I admire Elks work.

Elk : Student edition of 3DS Max 8. I can Ill afford the full license, but the student one is far cheaper :) Full program, but it's non commercial distribution of work only.

Crono : I'm glad you think so! :D

Trifle :

3DS Max :)

alexandralove :

Haha ! That's what I'm goin for with the soda ! :)

Codein :

Thankyou, your comments are Appreciated :)

Yeah it must be the reflection :o

Here are some textures created which are / will be used in the tank process,

Really nice work dude, cant wait to see that tank finished ^-^

Wow, I'm not used to seeing work like this here :)

You should have known already that you wouldn't be getting any sort of c&c here, just praise. Excellent work on both. You pieced together the textures? They work prefectly with your model, bravo. How long have you been working hard in 3d media? If I remember right you did a bit of it years ago, but how long have you been really cracking away at it?

about 1 and a half years properly :) thanks Alarid. These forums believe it or not are the most active I'm a member of, I am also a member of the CGTalk forums and 3D World and Autodesk but they get maybe one or two views a day and a comment a week if lucky at best.

That is some hardcore stuffs Red :)

The red can looks great but the texture should be smoother shouldn't it? Putting some condensation on it would make it look even better. Top of the can looks awesome though. :O

Absolutely amazing!! + rep man!1

Nice work, Iam glad to see you back in this dying game.
