I probably should update this. I haven't done any work recently since most of the modelling is done and I've been too busy to dump time into animation, however there's all the finalization for models I've completed which is done.

THAT POWER MINERS DRILL

I love it. I want it. YES.

I did too. I think it's a sexy full sized drill in a scale that just says "serious business". It's a pity I haven't found a vehicle I like it attached to that also says "serious business" quite yet.

Drill tanks come to mind.

They do, yes. I liked the notion of a giant rolling drill/slug that the Thunder Driller (?) evoked. I just can't reconcile the giant curved sections of Lego with classic Lego styling. And I can't replace it without it looking too heavy and losing Lego's trademark efficiency, although that may be a comment on my ability to visualize rather than an issue with the design.

DAT DRILL

It's a pity I haven't found a vehicle I like it attached to that also says "serious business" quite yet.

Please :> But I think it might be too big for that...

If you think your drill-bot is manly enough to pierce the heavens with that drill, you're welcome to try.

Sorry, it's not particularly optimized or well grouped. Should be easy with a good model editor, though.

I've considered a design like that, however my main issue is where is the driver located?

  If you remove the image name from the URL it takes you to the whole folder. Go up a level and there are two other designs too.

Woah, new forum look. I like it.

 

I made a better Tool Store from scratch, as my previous one was actually pretty inaccurate, and thanks to my choice of modelling tool had a tonne of duplicate meshes lying around. 

I'm using Blender now.

 

Attached is the new one, and the old one for comparison.

(Yes, I forgot to texture the top of the yellow 1x4x0.3333 plate. It's fixed now.)

 

-edit-

Did the Teleport Pad as well.

-edit-

Did the Power Station also:

Support Station:

Finalized the Support Station & Power Station:

...and redid the Chrome Crusher:

And some doodads:

Neat stuff, especially the Chrome Crusher. Welcome back!

 

Thanks. My old Lego haunt is defunct now, so maybe I'll hang around here.

Can we talk about the docks?

How do the two connected arms on top actually move around? It's not physically possible..

 

 

I've been working on a lot lately. Nothing I can talk about, though! 

But I decided to revisit the janky drill on the Chrome Crusher again. Also, studs.

Edit:

 

Also redid the Upgrade Station, since my original version was pretty much an original creation.

I'm not sure how that happened, considering there are instructions on exactly how to make one in the RRHQ Lego set, but there you go.

Edit:

 

I updated the Tunnel Scout. It was pretty good, but now it's final. Interesting how many variations on this design are out there.

And some tools:

Edit: 


Redid this too.

Edit:

 

And this.

The question is, use the game model or the Lego set?

It's quite tall...

Edit:

 

Redid the tool store.

What are you building these off of?

 

I'm using Blender, and I work with a combination of the Mk.1 eyeball and screenshots of the game, and the instruction manuals for the Rock Raiders lego sets (eg: here). 

These are renders in Blender.

 

I'm not sure whether I should preference official Lego set design over the game. 

 

Edit: Hover Scout done. Useless though it is.

Finished the Tunnel Transport. 

This is the third time I've modeled one and I am getting exceedingly tired of making it because of the number of bricks.

New hotness shown next to old and busted for comparison.

These are incredibly good, 

not only the modelling but the rendering and texturing too, Can't wait to see some of these moving!

 

 

Where is the tunnel transport actually used in the game though?

In the PC game it only appears briefly at the end of the level Frozen Frenzy. You can mod it into an actual vehicle you can use though.

 

In the PS1 version(s) it's used more, it can transport smaller vehicles and lands on big landing pad things IIRC.

 

Nice looking models, dude.

Thank you kindly. 

 

I believe it's in Frozen Frenzy, and also I think it might pick you and your vehicle up in that solo Rock Raider escort mission?

You also see it once in a pre-rendered cutscene roughly mid-game. I'm not sure why I made it in retrospect, given I don't really need it that badly..

Honestly, I'm not surprised it was cut; It'd be so devastatingly overpowered.

 

Edit:

In other news, I made all the characters.

I have absolutely no clue what most of these are made with or what you're planning to do with them...

 

... but they look nice l405G.jpg
