Hey, i have seen lots of plain looking 3d Half-Life 2 logos, but i haven't seen any with rust-like texture, so i threw this together in about 10 minutes usin 3dsmax.
tell me what you think
(its a lil blocky i know :-p)
well, its pretty good..the render is really boring...but you should geep working on the idea with rusty texture... try rounding the edges a BIT and adding a more fitting rust text. perhaps..and maybe make an industrial env.
hehe, like i said, 10 minutes, but thanks for the constructive criticism. i think when i have more time, say, over the weekend, i might put like an hour or so into getting a really nice lookin logo.
OK, so this time i took a different approach and i think so far its lookin better. The 2's are a little bit different, but i really didn't want to screw around with that. anyone think that its important for the 2's to match???
Here's the ms3d file for all you milkshapers out there. Spas 12 with stock unfolding and pump moving, the pump needs work tho so if u r an expert at animation then feel free to animate! Original tutorial thanks to Russian Faction!
Look at the pix in the file first though it'll prepare u for what's coming up
