Android Kart

[wolterh]

I am developing another kart, an android kart.

This is a work in progress:


I'm planning to make the wheels look as if they rotated about a magnetic axis, and plan to make the kart look very modern (too bad there is no reflection :S ). I hope you like it!

[Gallaecio]

Looks quite nice

Looks rather promising

I worked on an android too. I was making to a video tutorial how making track so I have taken a simple character.
There is my work at this stage

My animation is based on a transformation of his tank on a robot which will running if android wins
Losing animation will be : vehicle losing pieces and stop

I think to not use wheels as gnu
I've recorded videos to stage: "making vertex groups to parent to bones". 10 Videos (Total size 900 Mo)

I do agree ! Will you make him sat on the kart or just stay like this (reminds me R2D2 like that ) ?

I really like the fact you manage to model karts with just a few faces ! Keep us informed !

Rudy : your Android will make quite a good transformer !

Finished

It looks like there is a lot of z-fighting in the video. Is that correct?

[Kinsu]

It looks like there is a lot of z-fighting in the video.

Haha, I first thought it was a game or an anime Rudy used for inspiration Yes, there is z-fighting, maybe the faces of the tank are duplicated ?
Otherwise I would just try to find another texture, because this one is very similar to Nolok's, but it's nice !

[STKRudy85]

No, it seem like video horizontal stretching. I check the Tank there is no double faces.

About texture It's noticed I will change it as sand color

[STKRudy85]

Here the textures :

[Kinsu]

Yes, I was thinking to this kind of textures.

For instance :

[Kinsu]

Oh you got quicker than me !
Your handmade texture is cool !

[KroArtem]

Nice work!
@STKRudy85:
you can speak with Auria and Hiker and send this kart to stkaddons. As stkaddons needs new and reexported karts, Android Kart can be the first newly added kart

[Auria]

Hi,

nice work the add-ons website is currently in a state of flux as it is being completed by Stephen who is doing a great job; for now if you can export it to work with soon-to-be-release STK 0.7.1 it could appear on the current add-ons website, but when the new website is ready this will be the ideal place to post it

[STKRudy85]

Thanks for congratulations

I send it on addons website when it is finished
files are waiting here
