The topic says it all.
One of the biggest complaints on my original mb table was that the toys all looked flat.

So any 3d modeling guy out there that would be willing to help me out I would appreciate it.

Otherwise it will be the flat toys again.

I could use the fp models, but they are a little blocky and imo. Look just as bad.
What I need:
Drac model
bride model in 2 pieces. The body and head seperate
Igor model
scientist model
Frank in 3 pieces. The body and legs. The 2 arms as seperate pieces
mummy coffen and mummy. 3 separate models. The coffen and top in 2 pieces. And the mummy. Mummy could be built into the coffin model.

I believe the fp drac coffen model will work
Any help is much appreciated.

after I get the table built and coded. If I haven't. Gotten models I'll just have to use the fp models or flat images again.

Any takers please let me know as I have a bunch of resources for each toy

i'm a 3d modeler in architectural visualisation, so it's not the kind of moddeling i am used to. but still i would like to give it a try. the ideal would be to have a front , side and top picture of each piece and a least one measurment, although i dont know how real life measurment would translate in VP units.

The measure.ants wouldn't matter as I can shrink the models down in blender.
The fp models are huge in vp.

Maybe I can set up a dropbox with resources and people can take a look to see if they are interested.

And as so.done stated. It's really just the fronts of the models that need the details.

Except maybe on drac, as he moves around

I can't help with the actual 3D modeling, but I can get you whatever photos you need to help with the process.

thanks.

 

i'd like to know at what point did the texturing has to be done. will you import a fully texture model? or the texturing will be done in visual pinball?

Vp allows for importing the mesh and the texture is done with a uv map texture that goes to the image manager and wraps the mesh

After looking at the pics some more and for the sake of performance the frank model can be just one piece. With the arms out in front of him a little.

The bride needs to be a seperate head and body.

The mummy I would just need the mummy modeled and the casket lid. The rest I can do with vp objects

I'll do some experimenting with primitives to make sure I can get the rotations scripted correctly for frank and the casket lid on the mummy
I appreciate all the help on this

Here is a link with a few more pictures of the toys, some are identical but not all of them:

https://www.dropbox....ters_Pack_2.rar

 

Btw, I have a beautiful Playfield in very high definition (7100 x 3177 !!!) that I did months ago using several pictures, I wasn't completely done with the cleaning part, but it's already WAY better than anything else available on the Internet... Maybe we should add it on the data base. Here it is:

EDIT:

...And here is a link to download all the pictures I had put together for this table (220 MB !!!):

yes, it was long time ago.

I also gathered tones of references for 2 other tables that I will probably never use, but I have them just in case ;)
