the batmobile needs a skin

[Mystik]

could someone plz mesh any version of the batmobile

[Previsionary]

There should be one already out, but it looks like the freedom force car, iirc. I think Bil or someone made it...possibly captain carrot? ANyway, the only other person that was working on a batmobile (as previewed in his thread) was syn and he's not doing any FF stuff at the moment.

[Mystik]

the one made by captain carrot i am currently using as my batboat because it has no wheels, i need some that actually looks like the  batmobile or a car that batman would drive

[UnfluffyBunny]

I could be persuaded to release the batmobile as a nif and someone could nifskope it to be a vehicle, but it needs a skin

[Mystik]

well i would be able to nifskope it into a vehicle, I guess all we  need is a skinner willing to do the standard

[BentonGrey]

I'm sure that several skinners would be willing to take on that awesome Batmobile.  I'm interested in this too!

[UnfluffyBunny]

pre warning, I have -no- idea what condition it's in right now:

[edit]
the textures "parts1" and "parts2" arent needed

[Mystik]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

I already have a skoped version with keyframes from one  of vals meshes that looks pretty good in game, so I just need to get his permission

[BentonGrey]

Consider the skin request seconded!

[TAP43]

I would really like to skin this, But I am overloaded at work right now. If you don't mind waiting a week or two I could do it.

[UnfluffyBunny]

considering how long it's taken to get this far i'm pretty sure people wont mind another week or 2 :)
and I know personally i'd LOVE to see a TAP skin on this :D :thumbup:

[BentonGrey]

Ditto!

[TAP43]

Well I finally had some time this past weekend to work on this, and thought I would show what I have so far. And I wanted to see what you thought about what color I show do the main body. I was thinking of a blue black with black shadows and light blue and white highlights. The mesh does not have a glow or reflect layer, I may try nifskope them on before working on the main body. But I would still like to hear what you would like to see and if any one have d/l this mesh and already added a reflect and glow with layer I certainly would like to have a copy if there is one. Anyway here is the WIP so far it's only the wheels and the underside, there is a lot of warping in the middle section hence the large chunk of metal. I hope to have more time this weekend and will post the progress.

[Carravaggio]

Damn that looks awesome TAP, it's good to see this being skinned, and skinned so well.
I know i've not the patience to undertake something like this, so i'm doubly impressed with this wuality result.
And yeah, i think you are spot on with the colours :)

[Mystik]

I loving that detail, thank you so much

check your inbox

[Podmark]

Sweet!

[UnfluffyBunny]

I agree the detail looks awesome :thumbup:
unfortunately the warping is my fault, II wiremapped it out, and then realised the front wasnt quite long enough, so I stretched that section, and beyond mapping it all out again there was nothing I could do to fix that :oops:

[Mystik]

bump

[BentonGrey]

Yeah, bump!  Ha, UFB, the distortion is hardly noticeable man.

[TAP43]

Well here is what I have so far, it's mostly finished I'm still deciding if I need more detail or not and see if I can add a reflect and glow layer to the mesh. Plus I want to see if I can add the headlights from the Nazis truck mesh, anyway let me know what you think and any ideas for anything else it might need. I should have it ready for download by next weekend or hopefully sooner. I will post a better picture latter I know it's a little hard to see some of the detail.

[BentonGrey]

So. Freaking. Awesome.

[jeremy355]

Awesome looking skin Tap.

[detourne_me]

oh man thats sweet!

[TAP43]

I glad you guys like it, I stayed up to late last night trying to add a reflect and glow layer. I got it working but one of the wheels is over reflective and the reflect on the rest is a little on the weak side. Any ideas on why or how to fix it? Or if anyone has a working skope of it with reflect and glow added or wants to give a look at the one I did I could send it to you. I will post a picture tonight when I get home to show what I mean.

[TAP43]

I finally figured what I had done wrong and managed to add the lights from the cargo truck after many tries. I not sure if the skin needs anything else. I did make two versions sort of, one have a colored reflect layer and the other is B & W.
Anyway here is a link to the picture, it's large but I wanted to show the detail.

[bat1987]

It looks awesome, we really needed a cool batmobile!

[detourne_me]

NICE!

[BentonGrey]

Howdy guys, I was just wondering if this was ever released!

[Previsionary]

BUMMMMMP!

So um, seconding benton's question. Whatever happened to the skin and tap's yahoo group?

[NomadX]

Just downloaded the skin and it's friggin' sweet. I can tell you put alot of work into it, Tap. *thumbs up* The only thing (and don't get mad Thor Reborn xD), was the skope. I didn't care for the keyframes too much so I "reskoped" it onto one of Val's transformer vehicle meshes so it can now ram for melee and shoot things out of the front (the cycle rider skope fires things from the center where the shotgun usually is >.>).
