[FREE] Models

Hi,

I will post some models i made here from time to time.
And maybe someone will find them useful for their projects.

All posted models are creditware, so plese add "www.blattsalat.com" in your credits when using them.
Others then that, they are free to use in any kind of your project.


I hope you will like them.


Nr.1: Dumpster

free low poly dumpster model



have a nice one

Looks really nice - thanks

I am glad you like it.
And here is the next one:

All packages include FBX and additional OBJ files of the models beside the mdl7 format. In case you want to use it in another engine then GS.

free lowpoly hatch model

cheers and have a nice one

Would be great if it would have an open animation - but a very nice model plus texture

I consider myself more of a coder than an artist, creating what you've requested is easy via code or creating an animation from bones.

Thanks Blattsalat, nice contribution(s)!

Just love the high-quality texturing on these models! Thank you for that contribution.

Any chance you get the shop running again? I'm in the need of some weapon models.

Looks pretty nice. Looking forward to seeing more FREE high quality models.

looks very good!
How did you create this textures?
Did you take photos and edited them?
Great work, these great little thinks are useful for nearly everyone and they looks very, very great!

The Dumpster is phenomenal!! Great quality for free!!
One Question: is it allowed to modify the skin to your personal needs?

Hi,

I am glad you like it. There will be quite some more models posted very soon.


@SchokoKeks: I am not sure when the shop will go online again. I simply lack the needed time for that. But nonetheless I will post some work here from time to time....as a start

@JoGa: The textures are just painted. Some color layers, a few brushes and a little bit time. I never use photos for texturing. Imo painted ones look smoother and I have way more control of it.

@chris_oat: Sure. You can modify anything you like. Shape, texture, animation etc.


Cheers and have a nice one.

Nr.: 3 "parking meter"

free lowpoly parking meter model

hope you like it.

cheers and have a nice one

I hate parking meter, they eating my money
Great models, very good textures. Keep on your work. Thanks

nice models but your normal maps look a bit faulty. they cause weird shading on some areas. on the hatch it's visible best.

you must have done something wrong during baking them. maybe the normals of the low poly mesh were wrong or something like that.

Hi,

the nmaps are fine. Not perfect of course but fine. the viewer i take the pictures of though doesnt support light set ups. so this ones are made with one very very close and dimm light. the images are not rendered but taken out of editors (wysiwyg).

here is just the nmap in a decent model viewer tool (again realtime):


Rendering nice images takes time and i would rather provide models instead of nice pictures

cheers and have a nice one

The parking meter low poly with the applied nmap:



Here the shading is quite tricky because adding round objects to cornered one and smooth them, can be quite tricky for the nm (edges).

but hey, its still a learning process

cheers

yes, looks better with that lighting but i still see problems. there are some strange diagonals in the shading. are you using max? i am not a max user and probably this takes some experimentation but i guess for normal map baking it's very important that the smoothing groups are set in the right way.


here you can see what i mean for example. something seems to be wrong there.

The lower one (the cut in the main plane) is made on purpose (the lower left arrow). the plane aint ment to be totaly flat. There is a slight bulge in the plane.
Also the base ring of the hatch (upper arrow) cuts the light. a simple method to add depth to cubical models using nm.

but if someone doesnt like it, they can just remove the edge by painting the neutral blue onto it and remove the ring mapping.

cheers and have a nice one

could you show the low and high poly wireframes? would be interesting...

how did you achieve that? i still don't understand how this is supposed to look good though.

To be completely honest: no
it would be a lot of fuzz and there aint much to see.

there is one simple bulge in the main plate causing a none planar hatch door. this breaks the shading a little bit.
and the ring uses one champhered extra line at the edges with another set of smoothing groups. this way the very low end of the hatch as well as its edges will be a little darker then the rest.

thats all there is.
and as said, if you dont like this you can remove them very easy from nmap.

have a nice one

Hi,

Nr4.: Hydrant




download link:
free low poly fire hydrant model

cheers and have a nice rest of the year

well, your models are great!

It would be interesting, if you create a video about your workflow (modelling and painting) to see, how you made this models for 3D-model-beginner.
This would support a big learning success for beginners like me xD

Great models so far, i can't wait for more little modells, being enrichments for every game :-)

Your models look great,
and I would also like to see your workflow! I(and many others) would be able to learn a lot from it

Hi,

Never thought of that and i am not sure what i could contribute that cant allready be read on the internet about modeldesign.

Maybe someday but i would rather stick to contributing then explaining.

Some new models are on the way.

cheers and have a nice one

They look freakin awesome Blattsalat. Thanks so much for contributing. I wish my game was set in more modern times so I could find a place for some in it.

Long time no posting so there might be some need to compensate that in the future. But first things first.

A simple snake model (the package includes mdl, x-file and a 3ds version):

Hope you like it and i have some other stuff coming up soon.

cheers

Awesome! Thanks!

I saw a thread recently of some dude asking for a biting snake model. He is going to be STOKED.

Hi Blattsalat !

Sieht gut aus hoffentlich wird das Modell für mich auch so schön .Aber Du kannst es ja wie man sieht -)

Great models, thanks a lot for sharing them

@Det: Keine sorge. Kannst dich heute abend davon überzeugen


Always great to see them ingame! Its like they finaly got alive.
And a lot more things are on the way.

cheers and cu later,
Blattsalat
