I like the idea of combining the two models. Now it has larger smooth surfaces and still looks good and unique. I would also flatten the sloped base and maybe fix the UVW mapping. But Rawalanche is right, we need to get Volden's permission to do that.
Can't you make your own model? Afterall it's just few primitives thrown together - few minutes worth job.
As for Volden's model, i cannot imagine how i could evaluate a bit more complex material on such a bad uvmapped model like this.
I do not think we need to rape his Volden's model ;) It is his intellectual property after all :)
hi guys, thanks for comment
I would not dare to change volden model without his permission.
it was his idea to upload it to the forum as sketch to read your comments about it.
romullus, i think your right about the uvw map, it is a big problem. for tiles textures.
so, i came up with the idea for the new model. great look of volden and Practical surface from me.
