Thanks, would you also happen to have a pic of the back with armour and one of the logo?
Sure thing, man.
 

There's a basic mockup of the logo. (Might require a little rotation)
 

And here's a shot of the back. Sorry it's not very clear, but it does mark out the basic details- three grey circles, the Cassius II logo, the very small red sign that goes under the spike-

and that metal strip along the bottom. Hope these help!

No problem. Also, the X-Terminator pictures are on their way- they should be ready within a day or so.

TBH I was hoping you'd do the Series 7 version of X-Terminator with the flywheel. Unless of course that one also had an axe, I forget if it did.

X-Terminator had an axe for the vast majority of it's lifespan, so it seems only right that the more signature weapon made an appearance. Series 7 never had an axe, but I'd love to see an axe armed Series 6 version in DSL 3.

OK, that's fair enough. It is a bit of a complicated shape, but I'm very glad to know progress is being made on it.

I have a basic mesh done, but it's just making it into an actual component that's giving me a headache. Might have to try a new mesh :/

Ah, OK. Which part is it you're making? The Flipper, the sides, or something else?

Give him time, man. Wham must have at least 3 replicas on the go at the moment. They're a tricky business.

Seem to have hit a snag again with the damn ASE method (it works for low poly meshes but unfortunately not really the high poly ones that would require that kind of collision mesh :/)
Any hoo, I shall keep trying to fix these things and hopefully have maybe 2? new reps soonish.


UPDATE:


Just to prove I'm serious :P





(Note to self: In 3DS Max, Weld vertexes first, then smooth)


Still needs to be skinned before you all start flipping out. The flipper mesh is done aswell, just need to work on it's collision mesh and then do a lot of playing around with burst AP stuff :P

Very impressed! If I could +1 you for it, I'd definitely do so- it's certainly the most accurate Bigger Brother replica I've seen.   :claping
