You should try drawing pixel art dude... don't resize. If your going to resize... open them up in Paint, and zoom right in on them... then pencil in some extra colour and black outline.
Then it will look alot less like resizing.

Post by: -Skykanden- on February 13, 2008, 02:39:09 pm
Oh... don't resize please...
Is that a fast mod? Or you are going to continue it seriously? Those weapons looks just strange :P

It was just a test I did and wanted to see what other thought.  I will do it pixel style then.

Yes, I'm planning on doing the UT3 mod. Will do this much slower than my Crysis mod so it turnsout better.

Yeah, like now, I just realized that you do have the shock rifle on there. =\

Now you need to realize that there is no Shock Rifle there ;)
But I'm working on it for my first pixelated gun. But I had 2h of indoor Bandy so I'm gonna take a shower first and eat something.

slash agree. Not much more to say about it. If you can duplicate the technique with the other guns, then I think you've found your style.

As I said I'm gonna do much better this time and I've found a better way of doing the shading.

The Bone Collector our topics are slightly different and that's why the post count is not the same.

Which one is better? The first one has also black lines inside and outside while the other one has black outlines and darkest color inside.

Post by: Espadon on February 14, 2008, 03:37:50 pm
That stage is over, Dairy. I'm sure BD will stay away from shrinkydinks from now on.

I tend to use 'true black' as sparingly as possible if it's not the outline, but I think for your style, black lines on the inside give it more definition.

Have to say it doesn't capture the feel of the Lgun. Looks more like a cyborg Mosasaur skill instead of the white Protoss carrier that It should look like... well, I think the problem is that you're kinda downplaying the white panels that really give the gun character.
Title: Re: Blackdevil0742's WIP
Post by: blackdevil0742 on February 14, 2008, 05:08:13 pm
Maybe you're right. I haven't played the game yet so I don't have any real feel for the guns other than seeing them on the homepage. I wanted to use a side view perspective.

Anyhow I altered the lower panel a little.

Post by: blackdevil0742 on February 14, 2008, 05:46:04 pm
Well when I looked at the rendered picture of the Link Gun I didn't think that the plates were like in the ingame shot. If you rotate them you would see more of the interior of the gun and that's what I wanted to show.

anyhow I tried altering the gun based on the ingame shot which is from an older UT?
(http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/1130/linkgun2fw5.png)

Changed the front of the Shock Rifle:

Link gun looks better now IMO. Much more like the actual one in UT3.

No those shots aren't from older UT... just UT3 in low graphics settings I think.

I like a lot that Link Gun.
The rocket launcher don't looks a lot like, can you repair it? Make that the 3 tubes look well, or 2
Title: Re: Blackdevil0742's WIP
Post by: Espadon on February 15, 2008, 08:32:57 am
I think you rocket launcher could be a bit longer. Also, make the difference between the white/yellow pixels and red pixels on the barrel less. I mean, you know, so it doesn't look quite as speckled.

(http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j82/SGunny/linkgun_r.png)
Think this looks a bit more like it. Eh, I need to work on a bit bit myself. The main problem is still the bottom shroud piece.
Title: Re: Blackdevil0742's WIP
Post by: blackdevil0742 on February 15, 2008, 12:46:52 pm
Yeah, it looks better without the pointy pixels... dunno why I left them there. I will see myself how the lower panel should be(maybe just a little shorter on your edit).

The rocket launcher looked kinda weird when I changed the front so I made the back a few pixels wider instead.

The rocket launcher has three barrels, so to get that look, make the top barrel slightly shorter and smaller to make the bottom barrel look like it's closer to the viewer.  Like this maybe...

Terrible Edit  [retard]

I borrowed the game from a friend so I can get the sounds. The guns look slightly different ingame than the pre rendered ones on the website that I use as reference. I'm also not that good with shapes I guess.

The rocket launcher has three barrels, so to get that look, make the top barrel slightly shorter and smaller to make the bottom barrel look like it's closer to the viewer.  Like this maybe...

It all depends how you want to look at the weapon. I "imagined" that the third barrel was on the other side. I get what you tried to do with our edit but even If you try and improve it a  little it won't give the rocket launcer a good look.

The Biorifle has nice colors, but it doesn't have the distinctive "arched" shape. Biorifle's my favorite UT3 gun... I'm watching you!  [retard]

Espadon could you pointout some places as the "arched" thing won't help me much :P

Below is how the front looks when not on the gun.

The handle's a very distinct part of the gun, so you'll want to pay attention to it a bit.
Title: Re: Blackdevil0742's UT3 WIP (Biorifle)
Post by: blackdevil0742 on February 17, 2008, 05:41:10 pm
I tried do it. But I'm limiting my guns to a sertain size so it was hard to get the shape.


Date Posted: February 17, 2008, 08:11:22 pm
First try on the flak cannon. I'm not happy with it so I'll do it from scratch later. if there is anything you want me to take a closer look at then post pls.

Post by: Espadon on February 17, 2008, 06:41:00 pm
Not bad with the Flak; I'll see what I can do with the Biorifle. Tarydium Stinger, when you do it, should shoot arrows. ;)

Some of those guns look like ugh... but I've never been a massive fan of the Unreal Tournament series. Shading is nice, but the shape is a little worrying.

I just dindnt did that before because I still learning how to do it¬¬....
but great idea anyway.

Date Posted: March 07, 2008, 01:38:14 pm
but what about the secondary firing mode?
UT players cant live without the second firing mode of Flak Cannon!!!!
since I play UT for a long long time, i'd say the wepons are great, considerating that its from the newer version(s) of UT.

Post by: blackdevil0742 on April 07, 2008, 08:17:27 am
Thank you.
As for the secondary mode I could make separate weapon inis that ppl could use if they like it more than the other one. Though I'm taking a little break but I will do it.

Very nice I have to say.

No offence but did you resized them ? I guess not but the pixels looks so random. Anyway I like your work, details and colors you used. Pretty well done.
Title: Re: Blackdevil0742's UT3 WIP (Sniper Rifle & Flak Cannon)
Post by: blackdevil0742 on May 23, 2008, 08:45:08 am
No. None of them are resizes. I used all the UT3 weapon images I could find and tried to make them sideways.

As for my shading all I did was to use a screenshot of the fullsized guns' as my palette. I had my outline done and then I went back with the eyedropper and picked a color that was in the region I was going to paint. So all the shading is pixel by pixel and that took a while ;)

Title: Re: Unreal Tournament 3 WIP (teaser)
Post by: Hair|Trigger on July 25, 2008, 06:05:22 am
Alright well the only thing I can say about it is

You see how the weapons tend to look as if they have small white spots on them, maybe remove those so they are smoother (or just make them darker?)  perhaps its because you used re-sized weapons as a pallette.  I dunno, but I would alter the shading technique slightly. 

Thats all that I dont like, at the moment they are freakin sweet.

Judging by your sig, gosteks are gonna be a real pain.  Good luck with it all (:
Title: Re: Unreal Tournament 3 WIP (teaser)
Post by: blackdevil0742 on July 25, 2008, 06:19:32 am
I used the full-sized guns from the website as my palette. Dunno about the white pixels, I have a CRT on my desktop(where I do the mod) in 1024x768 and a LCD on my laptop in 1920x1200 and the guns look good. One or three guns have unnecessary bright pixels so thanks for pointing it out and I will fix that.
Title: Re: Unreal Tournament 3 WIP (teaser)
Post by: numgun on July 25, 2008, 04:50:12 pm
This mod is looking extremely good so far.

The flak cannon doesnt look too good although; its too small and wrongly shaped.
On some weapons there is too much black outlines that kind of ruin the overall look of the gun.
The translocator is a good example, try to replace the black pixels that are not the borders of the gun with something more softer like grey or other color that could blend better. This is an issue on the majority of the weapons.


Otherwise, great job!

P.S. What about them secondary weps?
Title: Re: Unreal Tournament 3 WIP (teaser)
Post by: blackdevil0742 on July 25, 2008, 05:05:25 pm
The flak cannon has been a nigntmare for me. I will see if I can make an other remake and maybe use a side profile.
I was wondering if I was supposed to use black or darkest color in the gun as lines but I ended up doing black. But I'll see what I can do.

Headgear:
Army- None
Norm- WIP
Punk- WIP
Dred- WIP
Mr.T- Ronin Face Paint

Gosteks shown are NOT finalized, and some areas MIGHT change prior to release.
Alternate gosteks to be added- Malcolm(Thunder Crash), Iron Gaurd, Liandri and (possibly) the Krall
