    I'm gonna start modeling pens in 3D for use in animations, collabs, intros, whatever Comments/feedback would be great if anybody has some, it took quite a while so I'd like to get it as perfect as I can :) [wyoutube]Of2AUetFZYM[/wyoutube] @Zombo

    Caps need to be longer, grips need to be bulging where tip is underneath. Good effort, I like the idea :)

    Yeah I worked for about an hour on the grips before posting on like 5 forums asking how to improve them, I'm still learning so when I get responses I'll fix the grips I'll lengthen the caps when I fix the grips, thanks for the suggestion :)

    What about an exploded view? That would be nice.

    I was considering that next, I'd have to model the inside of every part then too but that shouldn't be too bad You mean like dissecting it into parts right? or actually exploding the pen into pieces? lol

    @Zombo [wyoutube]TQjtsqhmLAs[/wyoutube] Thoughts?

    I think when I've done 3 or 4 pens I'm gonna try to make a promo collab like "Spinner: Spinnerpeem; Pen of choice: Buster" and show the animation in the corner while he's spinning or something like that

    Yep I meant dissecting it into parts, but also the grips, tips, o-rings...

    If you could model various parts, couldn't you virtually come up && model new mods and ideas using pieces which already exist? && Are you using actual dimensions or just making something that looks like it.

    @shoeman6 It would be pointless, much easier to test things out irl than in CGI. Right now I was just guestimating dimensions but I plan on doing it exactly for the finished version I want to do a Kuzu next with the grip cuts and everything, if someone wanted to let me have/borrow one to model that would be great :D

    Help me come up with possible uses for this kind of thing, that way I can have them in mind while developing it:

      [*]Animations/Intros/Promotional Collabs [*]Having archived models of many pen components in order to test/make new mods [*]In depth visual tutorials on how to make difficult mods
    Any other possibilities?

    My first crack at an RSVP body, comments?

    front is too short and thick. tips needs to be a little longer. but what am i talking about you know what an RSVP looks like :D

    @Frip haha yeah but those are the kind of comments I need, it's hard to see that kind of stuff when you've been working on it like i said do them with real dimensions at some point, but for now I'm just trying to freehand model them

    looks good, tip could use some work, seems a bit sharp, and the ribs need to be a bit closer together (near the tip of the pen).

    @shoeman6 Hmm ok I'll check that out. It'll all be under the HGG grip most of the time, this only matters for the exploded view Here's what I have for HGG Grip/Tip so far. I need to figure out the best way to make the dimples in the grip, but I think this is looking pretty good so far :)

    Nice stuff Strat. The sizes look a little werid. I think it could be really good for mod tut's. I just learned how to use autoCAD and I wanted to do some isometric and auto-graphic projections of mods. I think it would work really well with this.

    Is this what you're trying to do? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvZp5tsXi5g (first 5 seconds)

    FPSB 4th did it too for the construction of an mx. I think Neptune did it

    @Hippo2626 FPSB 4th? I didn't see any 3d modeling in that ...

    @strat1227 the intro sequence. Where the RSVP and HGG materialise and then dismental to form an mx. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QLRC0gnCVI

    Haha when I googled FPSB 4th I saw a different video than that :dunno: Yeah that's pretty good but a more cartoon-y viewpoint, I'm trying to realistically model all the parts and have them archived to do anything with :)

    not really related lol but whatever
