Free 3d models

[iLovePHC]

Hello. I've started with learning 3d software, but to get some real experience, i'd like to model something for somebody(completely free). I'm using maya as my primary software. I'm not familar with texturing yet(though ill be learning this in nearest future).

So if anybody need some simple model, feel free to ask.

 

What i mean simple:

1. Non organic - to model organic i need alot of experience. So i will not be able to model humans, mobs, fruits, vegetables, animals, etc.

2. No animation, projectiles, or anything else that would require something bigger than just modelling

3. Since i'm working on mac, i dont have access to 3ds max, any kind of converters, so ill give you back ma\mb file and you are free to do anything with it(just write my name in credits, if somehow my model will be useful for you)

4. Cant promise that i will texture your model, i'm learning only, but if model will be pretty simple, i would be glad at least to give it a try

 

What i will give priority - Swords, helments, shields, arrows, bows, heavy armor, some exterior items(beds, doors, tables, maybe even houses), mechanical tools(could try to make some balista or catapult)

 

Before asking, make sure you have references or at least some sketch, that i could use to model.

Thanks

Well, nice to hear it :)

 

I have several requests:

1) a dwemer knife as a weapon using resources from vanila dwemer knife (misc item) - I know the nif file has to be tweaked somehow to be visible in hand both in 3rd and 1st person. I will use it as a repair tool

2) dwemer granades (4 types: shock, fire, frost and warp) - both visible in hand as a weapons and projectiles,

3) dwemer cloaking device - some kind of dwemer-like armor that can be weared with other armor, just like a bandolier

4) dwemer generator - some kind of dwemer-like armor that can be weared with other armor, just like a pouch on left and right near belt,

5) dwemer throable disc - both visible in hand as a weapon and projectile.

 

What say you?

I believe he said "Simple Model"s....

To be fair, those are relatively simple models.

 

1) A simple .nif edit.

2) A simple greande, with, probably, a few color variations.

3) Got nothing to do with modelling, to be honest. That's all texturing/nifskope

4) I got no idea what that is all about. But you could probably make some sort of soul gem holder which is placed at the belt, and looks like it siphons the power from it.

5) No idea how that is suppose to look, but again - a simple model.

 

But saying "Make X!" does really not work. Either you need to tell the artist "It's going to look kind of like X and with some Y around, then add some Z", and hope the artist either can draw his/her own concept art, or can do it from the description given. If that's not possible, then you need to send over a reference. "I want something like *insertPictureHere*, but maybe with Y part from *Insert other picture here":

 

Best of luck!

Thank you for the advice. I really appreciate it. In normal circumstances you would propably be right. The problem is I dont really have any specific appearance in mind. I will be glad as long as they are generally dwemer-like looking. I need those resources for my mod but I need them to implement new mechanics and its the mechanics I care the most. The appearance is not that important for me. In other words I leave it to the artist. I think its a fair approach.

I'm not really familar with skyrim SDK, nif, etc.

I would like to model for you, also i'd even try to add some texturing to 2 and 3 of your list. But could you provide me some images, references, or at least in game screenshots of what i could start with, since, i've played skyrim, but only few hours, so not really known in its lore, story.

In any case, add me on steam, so we could speak a little bit more about it all. Steam: avdept

Would you consider making the armor from the Aureals and Mazken from the Shivering Isles?

I'm making a Shivering Isles redux mod, and it would help greatly!
