well, I don't usually post tests and such, but I thought I'd get an opinion from people on what they think of my Zero Suit design, thus far.

No body morphs or anything yet, just a quick test render for seams, you like? :P

Nice.

So far it looks very nice.

What is a zero suit?   Is it something worn in the zero room?

you don't need to change for the Zero Room... unless your a Timelord that is...

Yes, yes, yes!!! Great start!!!

Please, please pretty please tell me that you want to model the Power Suit too! I could pay whatever you want for it! I could ever send my sister to you!  (if I had one, I mean)

lol, I wish I could do that, that's why I'm doing this becuase I don't have a way to do the power suit.  Trust me, if I could, I would, I want it myself :D

"you don't need to change for the Zero Room... unless your a Timelord that is..."

Tegan?

close.. she was in that story... the Fifth Regeneration needed the Zero Room to stabilise the regen..

I'm confused... are we talkin' Metroid or Dr. Who? :P

sowwy... did'nt mean the hijack... I shall now commit hotdogicide urp

What is the power suit?
 

the power suit is worn by Samus Aran in the game(s) Metroid.  What I'm showing here is the suit she wears under it where in one game she loses the suit :D

Samus is so sexy! (although I've never played the game)
I've seen the most unbelievable fanart for her!
Always was wondering how come there wasn't any poser stuff for her
Very nice job on this!

> Quote - > Always was wondering how come there wasn't any poser stuff for her

Because her Power Suit  (for example, this is the Varia version, maybe the most famous) would be a TOUGH job even for a serious modeler.

I was not joking when I said that I'd willing to pay a nice sum for a good Poser model of Samus' suit. Someone wants to take the challenge?

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

be careful, you will pay a good sum... I paid $300 for just texture work for the Witchblade... so yeah, hold onto your wallet when you hear the price :P

Well...  fifty-fifty? 

I am not asking for an exclusive: I am sure that it would be a killer article in the Marketplace!

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

if I had that kinda knowledge, I wouldn't be working in poser :P  I'd love to make a Power suit, and a real Ridley (just posted a version of him in my gallery)

Thanks looks cool. Had never seen them.

How many types of those suits are there?

And I gues if some one models it, it should be for V4.

I am not a complete idiot, some parts are missing :)

Since the powersuit is fully enclosed, I don't see any purpose in trying to model it around V4 or any other character model, not like you're going to stick some conforming underwear outside the armor or anything.

Exactly. It could be a stand-alone character which does not need a V4... except maybe for an head when the helmet is removed.

Giorgio

I have a version of the female Guyver armor that I was able to "seat" a head on it and turn the helmet off.  To be technical, there are 3 versions of the original Powersuit, the standard, the Varia, and the Gravity, all the same but different colors.  Then there's slightly different versions, some with really big shoulders, some without, and then there's the Fusion suit which I'm guessing could be some kind of bio armor like the Guyver

So, the question becomes, how many do you want and can you get someone to build 'em all? :P

Googling a bit.

It seems that the one with the "cams" on the shoulder is most popular.

I only can find pictures looking at the front and not on the back  :sad:

Meanwhile, Cujoe, mine is still slowly being worked on, though the differences between our attempts are quite noticeable :> Different models in mind, after all.

... after this one, I need to get cracking on a Green Lantern outfit.

now why does that look so familiar... you wouldn't happen to be posting Krystal in that Zerosuit on any other sites would you? :P

and I agree, the "cams" seems to be popular

oh, a quick update, I'm also doing the "other" version of the suit :P

Oh I haven't done that many with her in the Zero Suit.. only about 3, and they're all WIPs, because as you can see, it's far from done.. :)

But yeah, guilty as charged.

Littlefox did a mechsuit helmet, and there is a V4 armor that is almost identical to the body., except no shoulder pods or gun arm. I can't remember the name of it. It had an ugmo helmet and weirdo looking jet engines on stalks as well as out-rigger gun pods at waist level. If I can find it, I'll post a name.

Are you referring to the Stellar League Assault Suit, found at DAZ? It's great, I own it and I have used it in a picture, but it quite different from Samus' suit...

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

At DAZ there is alzo a nice suit with a gun cannon, but again, it is quite different from our beloved Varia.

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

The chest piece is almost identical to the chest piece of the armor,IMO. I never played the Samus game or Metroids so I don't have the POV of complete accuracy on this. LOL

Yes, the two suits are similar in the chest piece, but only because they have the same "pointy" shape over the breasts. Unfortunately their resemblance ends there: armpits, collar, neck and back zones are totally different....

Besides, as said before, a "real" Varia could be best created as a standalone character, rather than as a "suit" wearable by a V4.

Maybe it's not exactly for Poser.... but someone HAS built the Power Suit!  :biggrin:

..... and the Zero Suit too!!!   :laugh:

YAY!!!

And for SERIOUS, DEDICATED and AWESOME fanart too!

Look at this picture and you'll understand why we love Samus so much!

Yeppers! I guess,so! Seen plenty of Samus around DA, so I see the attraction. :laugh:

When I see this kind of drawings I find myself pulled towards the PC, Vue and Poser to recreate something like that......  then I sadly remember that THERE IS NO SUIT FOR POSER!  :sad:

So, please, oh mighty and powerful modelers, where are you?  :biggrin:

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

Ok, I gave this a thought and desided to give it a try.

DISCLAIMER.
It is as it is, a try.
I am not a pro modeler but a begining hobby modeler who likes a chalange.
I will try to model the suit as acurate as posible, and probably need some help along the line.
Dont hang me on times, I have a very busy work life, so I only can model in the litle free time I have.
I never done rigging before, so this wil be the first time in that department.

If there are other modelers who want to give it a try, by all means dont wait on me and do so

Ok, that aside,
Do's the suit needs to be UV mapped or collored by shaders?
And do you want to have the lines modeled or added by bump mapping?

Ok, few questions.

I run into 2 different styles mainly.
One is the "rounded" style, i.o.w. all parts are rounded off.
One is the "edgie" style, all parts have sharp edges.

And I think I open a seperate thread for this.
Its easyer to follow for you guy's and I dont hey joe...uuurrmm, hi jack this thread :biggrin:

I agree completely: please open the new thread and I'll answer your questions there.

And huge apologies to cujoe_da_man for hijacking the thread! To steer it again on tracks, I'd like to know which face morph and hair has used for the Samus test renders!

Giorgio

giorgio_2004 here, ksabers on XBox Live, PSN  and everywhere else.

oh I don't mind at all, I'm actually talking to someone right now that thinks he can model the helmet and cannon, but he says that's about the extent of his knowledge :D

This is a study of how Samus' face could be. I used the same hair as you, but the morph is a mix of Lorena by Rhiannon and a bit of dial spinning....  I still prefer your version, anyway.
