Description
So I have TF2 and my friend Paul has the know how to make maps for it, and his first project is a Thomas The Tank Engine Map with Thomas as the Payload. So I modeled a Thomas to see if I could do it... Heres the resultI know the face is way off but shit off if im gonna be making an entire bloody face for this thing... took me long enough to figure out how to slice into objects and even then i dont know if thats the right way to do it
I tried to make it detailed, accurate but low poly for the game, but thats rather hard to do when the way you slice into objects creates extra vertices you dont want so in all this came to exactly 3,380 polys
I intend to do more 3D work because of its success

I've made a vector of the CGI face for my Mindstorms NXT Thomas models. I can upload it and send it to you.

Your Thomas rules!!
I modeled a Thomas when I was still in college.
Sadly it wasn't as wonderfully accurate as this one.
I think in total mine was about 4800 polys.
Although I did manage to import it into Trainz.
What software did you use?
Mine was done on 3D Max.
If you like to see mine, here's a link.

Oops, Didn't read some of the previous comments. X__X
Mine was on 3D Max 8 and 9. (because my college upgraded their copies.)

Yours is pretty good too, obviously I do have eyes i can see its not perfect but its definatly the best out of all the ones ive seen on here

Thanks, I'd probably could do a better one now that I have finished college.
But sadly other animation work must comes first.

Thomas seems particularly disgusted with my behaviour.
Still, like everyone else is saying, it's an improvement on the original. More to the point, I think it's a better fit with the Team Fortress art style.

Most people keep tryig to get me to use maya but i dont intend on doing 3D animation unless it is absolutly necessary.

I was taught Maya for a year at uni, just couldn't get into it, much prefer doing everything in Max
