hi,
i'm a blender user and i'm learning to make character models. i've got myself a copy of paul steed's book and i'm thinking about doing a female marine. i'm planning to use pictures of real women's face as a reference for the head model and i could do with some suggestions.
obviously i'd like to base it on a good looking woman, but she'd need to look tough enough to be a credible marine. any suggestions? if you can also provide links to a front and side picture of her face that would be a massive help.
thanks.

Can't find a side shot but the movie should provide that if you need it (Alien: Resurrection (4)).
-
you could use the actress who played GI Jane.
-
Scratch that, Ripley> Gi Jane
but at least give her decent hair like in the last alien movie, because in alien 3 she shaved it off while alien 1 and 2 had seventies style hair

since most head models start of bald and then have the hair added, it would make life a lot easier to use pictures of a shaven headed woman as a reference. the only other examples i can think of are demi moore as "gi jane" (such a weak movie) and natalie portman in v for vendetta(much better movie).
mmm, natalie.

Do we need a FEMALE model to jack off in trem :/
-
Females are faster but weaker
Males are the opposite
Now that I'm thinking,How would the females wear the battlesuit?It's just too heavy for them.

It's a game not real life :)

Looking at the size of the battlesuit no human would be able to use one. Think "power assisted armor suit"
-

For that specific question, the answer is obviously NO.
Let's simplify the question to "Do we need a female model in trem?" The answer to that question is "why not?" Considering the army of clones the humans are currently using, we sure could use a few new human models. So, why not a female one then?
-
Stof said it all,I agree with him :P
-
Instead of moaning about IF we want a female player model in Tremulous, who don't you guys just create it, and then surprise TremDev with it. All this talking will not really bring us a female player model, it will only make us get tired of the subject.

Please explain to me what those words exactly mean. Because I am thinking of becoming president of the USA.

the point of this thread is to decide who to base the female marine on, not if there should be a female marine.

So you want me to make nude tremulous hack?

I know - it should me 'making' :wink:
But who knows, maby he realy is thinking about 'doing' a female marine?
Is that whay you meant? If not then I'm a bit confused... :-?
-
LETS MAKE FEMALE ALIENS!!!
-
Is it just me, or does ellen ripley look like a skinny man?
Still looks like a good choice though, I hate how every game's female characters have to have tiny waists and huge breasts. The developers must have stiffies the whole time they model characters e_e

this was a bad example. you are not born in the US, correct? so even if you think about it, it is impossible. but the original poster may have to ability to create the model.

Maybe you should go say that to some women.
Then post pics of the beating you get.
-

That is not what I meant. What I meant is that thinking of making a female player model is something totally different than actually making it.

I am well aware of that, but that does not make it impossible for me to become president. Laws can be changed.
Since the chances of this guy making a female players model are about as slim as mine are of becoming president of the USA, this example is perfect.

terminator wants to change the law in usa so that he can be a president, so you have a chance :wink:

Yeah, you can't deny the fact that men, on average, have more muscle mass than women, but saying that men CAN magically wear a giant metal suit and women can't is just strange.
-
btw i think men are a tidbit faster on average as well

Who is the woman who does the act involving putting an angle grinder (to the thick steel plate) between her legs? I saw her when she had been hired by some motor show to please the crowds while the salesdroids tried to convince them to buy their cars...

Awwwwww so cuuuuuuuuuuuute.
Once I went to a zoo and they had an event with lots and lots of little chicks. All the kids went 'awwwwwwww cuuuuuuuute'. Then I broke their hearts when I said they'll be fed to the snakes after everybody leaves.
They looked so sad ;'(

The first one is Joan Chen, Shanghai-born actress who was in Twin Peaks and The Last Emperor, among other things.
As mentioned above, the second is the incredibly hot Mila Jovavich, who was in The Fifth Element, Zoolander and other stuff.
Both have done action scenes, had really short hair, and carried guns in the movies. Either would make a good female character model.

since most head models start of bald and then have the hair added, it would make life a lot easier to use pictures of a shaven headed woman as a reference. the only other examples i can think of are demi moore as "gi jane" (such a weak movie) and natalie portman in v for vendetta(much better movie).
mmm, natalie.
Here are some links for Joan Chen. I can't find a shot with her head shaved, but she has had really short hair in some films, and wears her hair pulled back quite often.
Some different stuff she's appeared in:

linda hamilton's a great choice, she got the right mix of toughness and good looks. she was great as sarah connor in the terminator films. i'm going to see if i can find some more images of her.

Ok, so far the popular consensus appears to be:
Tough looking but not too masculine
No deliberately exaggerated assets
Something on the lines of Ellen Ripley, Linda Hamilton or Vasquez.
Uniformed in a similar style to the current male model with no deliberate exposure of assets
Is this about right?
-
Nope.
Without exagerrated assets, you're just left with Rosie O'Donnell parts oozing out of a bsuit. Vasquez? Ripley? What's the point of a fem model with hairy pits or a bald head? I don't get it, and hope I never do!
-
treminator-
if you want a curvy female it might there are probably some custom models made for quake3 that would do the trick. it should be doable because the tremulous engine evolved from the quake3 engine.
the model's pk3 could be altered so that if it was dropped in tremulous' base folder it would replace the marine character. i imagine it would be quite a popular mod. :-)
-
Would the BBox cover the curves of the md3?
-
good question. i imagine some tweaking would be needed.

Except if you tried to play on a pure server (most of them are) it wouldn't work. Also, the marine has a different second stance and attack. (replaces the gauntlet pose with the pistol grip)
The bbox wouldn't be a problem unless the model had some veeeeery odd proportions, or was scaled incorrectly.
-
you would pretty much have to make the chick like 50 50 50 for her to go out of the bbox

couldn't find any more pics, you find them yourselves :P
also, just because female characters share tights doesn't mean they are "showing off"
they have to be quiet, with robes and clothes, it will make noises when moving :P
also, Jill Valetnine in RE is pretty cool too :)

ill settle for that :D
