Youme edit:

I've finished this request, you can download the model using the above link. Enjoy.

Original post:


I have an intel room contest undergoing in my clan, and I was hoping that someone might be able to model the Golden Idol from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Arc for me. If everything works as planned, it'll have a giant rolling boulder and all of the other hazards. Here's A picture with several angles of the idol.

Additionally, please don't judge me as a mooch for the first post of mine being a request. :unsure:

I leave you tonight with 1 hour's progress, my first attempt at anything remotely like organic modelling. I hope you like the start. I'll make sure it's got a nice specular material so its nice and shiney too.

I may also experiment with doing a LOD model for it too. who knows what will happen!

IMO, should be an idol of the heavy, but that's just me.

Wow, thanks a lot Youme, that looks fantastic! I knew that sooner or later one of the 13,000 epople would actually reply... It's relatively small and is gonna be an intel replacement, so anywhere from around 20-40 units should be fine.

Considering the [ame="http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=8545"]entire demographic of Africa[/ame] is browsing these forums... I'm surprised you've only gotten 13,000 hits.

Lol Youme... awwwwnawwww?

that looks really nice for a first organic modeling try, youme :)
especially the poly distribution is very linear and even. nice work so far !

Here it is ingame, next to the intel for comparison. it's 21x17x34 with the intel at 13x39x45

I'm going to look into a LOD model for it later so i wont dish over the files right away :p
I'd like to release it properly, FPSB an all if you don't mind, since I'm very proud of it :D

Looks good. I'm not sure how important it is to the poster... but this was a fertility idol.

The pics A Loaf of Bread used doesn't show it well. Here:
