Description
As promised, a multiview of the steam quad. You can see that the grappler arm is really not much bigger than the cannon when folded.Related content

I love the tank and smokestack(?) on the back. Β very steampunkish

Funny. I've never actually watched Doctor Who, but now, I think I might ^_^

Well, not so much evil ^_^ Just different.

hey, with what program did you do this? that is quite important. ^^ Because if that program puts out the file in *.stl or *.ply or *.3ds, that would very much help. Then the miniatures can be PRINTED in 3D, I have found a company for that. ^^ That would be awesome.

It's DoGA L3
Here's the site: [link]

interesting! but what file format doeas it provide?
π: 0 β©: 1
um, .x .dfx and .wrl... unfortunately that's all...
You should be able to use .x right?

hmm. I have to ask them about that. I do know that they can rework the file to another file format, but that costs extra, of course. and I want to keep the price as low as possible (it is expensive already^^)

Well, another problem with DoGA is that the way it's geared it often inverts faces when exporting. It's quite the pain in the butt at times unfortunately. You have to take the model from doga, combine the parts into a single piece eliminating the dead space, and then manually flip the faces.

jesus. that sounds like a lot of unnessesary work ^^

YEah, I'll say. It's not really meant to be used as a professional program. It's really just made for fun.

too bad, really. any chance that you use other programs?? to let the company change the file format would cost around 100!!!! euro, that is waaay too much! ('specially since printing the figures is cheaper!)

Nope, can't afford anything professional quality. I dabbled in wings a little bit in the past, but I don't currently have a copy. I haven't touched DoGA in months.

aww that really is too bad. may I have your allowance to give this design to another artist so that he/she would do me a 3Dmodel that I can use out of this? Would be pretty nice.

Absolutely. I'd love to see someone else's interpretation.

For some reason I've always liked old scvhool machines like this.

Me too ^_^ Even though in all reality it probably wouldn't work. It's fun to fantasize though.
π: 0 β©: 1
It might could work. Y'never know. It'd probably move really chopily though and be emensely hard to control.

I think this is one of your better ones 
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh yeah. This is an old one... Unfortunately the file for it was lost with my old compy. Sucks eh?

I hate it when that happens >:/!!

Why thankyou, thankyou very much ^_^

I am developing a non-commercial pen& paper roleplaying game, working title "the world of jules verne", in a world (some may call it "steampunk") full of technological wonders, somewhat like in the game arcanum (but without the magic). Right now, I am searching for artwork which I could use for the game, and this would be perfect. do you mind if I use it? Even if you do, please tell me!! Thanks a million, coco

Hey, thanks for asking.
Absolutely! Feel free to use any of my art. Just note me on any pieces you plan to use, and feel free to use them ^_^
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah for sure
thanks!
I'll be off to browse then.

thanx! glad you like it.

Doesn't look like much of a steamwork to me, personally ... too glossy, bit too complex and not really grimy. Still, it's a fine model. Reminds me of the Guidebot from the latter Descent games given legs.

i like it, it does look 'steam powered' very cool

ahh... very nice

Took me about two and a half hours to build initialy, and about 10 min to joint. I don't think I'll be animating it though, since DoGA doesn't have a joint option for pistons or sliding parts, which really bites.

Damn good doga, and a great idea too. We should RP an alternate history of the civil war using these things. Right I gotta build one.

Looking good.
It's nice to see the multiview of it.
π: 0 β©: 0
Yes, I see that now. Now with it being a quadraped it has more stability. By the way how did you get your mech out of doga?
