Originally I took this map up as a side project. Got about as much done as you see here and lost the file by the overwriting glitch. But true Spartans don't give up! After taking some time off, I went back and rebuild the project from the ground up. There is still much more work to do, but I don't see why not throw out a little peek. This Arbiter is undefined, but is mostly modeled after Ripa Moramee of Halo Wars. The final post is planned to include a video of a collaboration of arbiters from Halo Wars, Halo 3 and even some clips from Halo Legends. Also with a deep background story of what the Arbiter is, and of course graphic cover by Patriot. The post is estimated to go up within the next 2 weeks. In the mean time enjoy the Arbiter's current state. Some of you have gotten a VIP peek on xbox live already, this is for the rest of the community. I have nothing to hide-this is what I'm working on.
With every map you produce, the more you become my idol. what you do is amazing. can't wait to put it into my collection of statues
Looks pretty nice. However it does not look like very smooth in the first picture. Im no sculpture maker but this outdoes anything I have tried to make. But I am a decent artist and this could be pretty awesome were it a liitle more sleek. Not that all of it is not sleek. Its just parts of the front of the upper body look kinda angular (ie non covie) He could have deleted it before taking pictures...
inorite This looks awesome. But when will you be making master chief or have you been working on that all along to get it perfect?
It was only a matter of time before you were gonna do the arbiter. I know my opinion doesn't really matter, but this looks insane.
Everybody's opinion matters. -Just a reminder: "MAP PREVIEW" differs from a final post. -I appreciate the craftsmanship concern, and your feedback. The project has not gone through the tuning phase. The techniques between making maps and sculptures happen to be very different. The objective was to pass on a general idea.
Dude I can't wait for this map to hit the complete and ready for DL phase. The fact that you based it off the Arbiter from Halo Wars is also cool because in my opinion that Arbiter is definitely more bad ass then the other ones. And I don't see why everyone is making a big deal about the grid. It's a preview for a reason and you clearly stated it was not finished and you were working on it. The grid is great for getting angles just right so props for using it. Again awesome job so far.
Wow, words do not describe........ I must say however it looks more reminiscent of the Halo Wars arbiter, kinda more beefy/beastly
It's in the write-up Ociee, but ya, you basically got the right idea. The original file was named Ripa Moramee, name of the Halo Wars arby
Wow, the Halo Wars Arbiter is my favorite one. It looks top notch. However, it is missing one thing: A sword in the other hand. Seriously, if you have the budget, do it.
That is actually very interesting. The respawn zone effect only works on one sword, but I think that you may have something here.
woooah! This is looking awesome, So u use the grid to line up the sword! Impressive technique. This is looking amazing! Looking forward to seeing the arbiter completed!
