Arcantrik Force Generator Proxy

Last crawled date: 6 years, 4 months ago
This is my attempt at a proxy model for the Arcantrik Force Generator Battle Engine for the Warmachine tabletop game. I really disliked the real model, so even if I were willing to buy one, I still would have ended up modding it somehow. This just cuts out the middle-man, and saves me a buttload of money at the same time.
For models, I used this Dark Protoss Arbiter model meant for a StarCraft 2 mod:https://www.sc2mapster.com/projects/protoss-texture-variations/files/908112
and the NOD MCV from C&C: Tiberium Wars, which happened to be in this pack from the devs themselves: https://cncnz.com/downloads/tiberium-wars-downloads/#modding-assets
I basically just cut up the arbiter and pasted the parts where I thought they would look good on the MCV. I was thinking of some kind of spider tank think with big front legs, and I think it came out pretty well.
I put it on a 120mm base that I made in Inventor, which has little nubs indicating the facing.
The only thing I want to add is the swirly details all over the real retribution models, but I have yet to figure out a way to do it well and relatively easily.
As for printing, I really have no idea how well this will print. I split it up into four parts small enough to fit on an Elegoo Mars, since that's what I'm planning to print it on, but I have the full model for anyone who wants to use it.
I'll do something for the Trident eventually, maybe after I finish printing out two of these guys.
