-edit- the creator of these models doesn't want them used in any games yet. so they wont be on tuwr.net for download. at least not until i or somebody else model similar ones.

found these online while looking for naruto models, i wish i was good enough to make them . these are pics taken from the model converter, i still need to animate them. Will put in animations for running, walking, weapon firing, looking left/right, jumping, dieing, standing, standing bored, and eating. have a few others as well (few women, an imp, and a dragon with a saddle), but they use multiple texture files so they need remapping.

despite how nice these models look, they are all also relatively low poly:



Naruto. 923 faces
a popular anime cartoon character for those that don't know



skateboarder. 1710 faces (1210 without the skateboard and bottle). will make animated copies of him with and without the skateboard. also wouldn't be to hard to edit the texture to give him some short hair.



Klaus the demonic knight. 1314 faces



gremlin type thing. 502 faces



tiny demon. 1020 faces

Hmmm, otherwise known as "all the stuff on Ben Mathis' website". I wouldn't use any of this without asking him, if I was you. Maybe he doesn't mind, I dunno... I can't find anything to confirm that either way. What I do know is, I'd be pretty fecked off if I'd made something and someone came and messed around with it (reskinning, changing the skeleton etc) or used it without my permission. Would be wise to check before doing anything else.

The reason you wish you were good enough to make stuff like this (same here) is that he's a professional 3d artist :)

lol. i assume you know of him then

anyway yea, i was looking around on his site but didn't see anything saying whether or not it was ok to use, it's freely downloadable though so i don't see why it wouldn't be. but since you want me to, i'll send him an email asking if it can be used for this game, edited, etc.

::hides all the reskinned and re-skeleton models of foolis::

Heheh, well that's different:

a) anything I make is free for anyone to muck about with, as long as it's for this game and shared freely with this community.

b) most of my stuff is crap to start with :)

well, he just replied and said the models are more for educational purposes and would rather not see them used in any game yet.

so, so much for using them. and back i go looking for nice free models.

although i might use some of those models as references to learn how to make a naruto and skateboarder of my own. he did say they were for educational purposes

well, good of him to reply. And at least you still have a clear conscience :)

His site has loads of useful video tutorials showing just how he makes stuff - very very helpful, and well worth sitting through (there's hours of stuff there). That combined with the model files is all very groovy...
