Low-poly Metoid models

(Sorry about the typo in the title, it should read "Metroid models" =P)

Hi, I've been making a team metroid map for quite a while, progress is going very well, and I'm definately going to finish it. Last time I requested, I didn't have many skins or plans done, but now I know exactly what I want for most of the models. There are only a few difficult ones, 2 of which are based closely on other models. Please help out if you want to see your model (and name) in a fun upcoming map, "Metroid: Search for Samus". The models don't need to look good or detailed, they just need to be recognisable. The skins and more reference pictures are available on request.
***Here is the UPDATED (and smaller) model list:


- Door -
Skin: textures\mortarteam.blp (skin completed)
Animations: stand, death

- Hatch -
Skin: textures\mortarteam.blp



- Samus and Galactic Federation Trooper -
Based on Warden model
Skin: textures\IronRaven.blp (completed)
Custom animations: jump (spin-jumping), crouch, attack, stand ready
Hero glow and sounds need to be removed

Final model plan:


Early scetches:


- Morph Ball -
Created from scratch
Uses same skin file as Samus, "textures\IronRaven.blp"
Animations: stand, walk, death


- Chozo Statue/ Torizo -
Custom animations: Sit (sitting on floor with hands cupped), morph (getting up from sitting, the feet do not move on the ground)
Model plan:



- Ship -
From scratch, no skin yet
No animations or attachment points


- Metroid -
From scratch, no skin yet
walk, attack, and death animations (it kinda just wiggles around a bit)
Needs attachment points

check out the metroid mod hosted by wc3c, you guys could help eachother.

Tried to before, but wouldn't hurt to try again :)

Well, I couldn't get any help. The map's progress is going fine, if you want to see the newest version, or have any questions, just PM me or reply here. All items, weapons and abilities are done, as well as many enemies, one kind of metroid, custom music and sounds, and a bunch of other stuff (breakable blocks, doors, elevators, save stations, water, lava, ammo recharges, etc.) I'm desperate for models, so please help out if you can.

umm you wouldnt mind posting a protected version so some of us can see so far


im interested

The next beta version should be done in about a day. Not sure whether I'll post it or not though, I'll have to think about it. If I decide not to, you could get it from me on bnet. I gotta right now though, cya!

I'm back =D I have free time now, so I have picked up working on the map again, and am almost done all the "building blocks" of the map (enemies, abilities, special walls, etc). Soon, all I will need to make is terrain, bosses, and triggers for the endings. I've taken some models off the list and simplified some stuff, but unfortunately, I cannot make skins at the moment. Once again, any help is greatly appreciated, this map will get finished (possibly in a few months), and it will be insanely fun. I'd like to get the models started A.S.A.P rather than after the map is done, so don't hesitate. Thank you!

There is a metroid model in Video Game RPG., but it doesnt have the ready fire stance and fire stance when she fires.

pm me if u need help with anything, looks cool.

Are you gonna share the models with the rest of the forum members?

I found two Samus models based on the terran marine, but I'd have to reskin them (with permission from their makers of course). Also, it would still need a jump animation added, and a morph ball skin.
Preator_III, if you can help with skins or models it would be great, everthing else is pretty much taken care of. All the models needed are in the first post, but they don't have to be as complicated as they are there.
And yes, I'd share the models. Whoever makes them can decide how to share them, I guess.

I asked you if you wanted anything from metroid mod, and ya said not now, so just contact me. You have the info already, I'm sure.

Yeah, I've been busy. I'll update this thread in a few days, so it'll explain exactly everything I need. It'll be a bit less ambitous too, and won't include things that I might not need. So, once that's changed, there might be something from the mod that I can use (probably the metroid and/or the ship, if there was a ship)

[edit]
I simplified the list slightly, but I'll refine it more later, plus finish and upload the skins.
