i myself never really thought of the recognizers as having a "face" like I can see that its totally there but I was never fond of it. I prefer it to be a more anonymous type vehicle....

hehe I would revamp the facial area if i was in charge of a remake I was pretty satifised with what they did with the ver. reco's in Tron 2.0

Could someone post a pic of the recognizers as seen in Tron 2.0. I've read about people that liked them and I've read about people that hated the changes but I think I have yet to see one of them.

Ok... I'm gonna get to work on the recognizer again probably tomorrow.... but for now, here's a little treat, per request.

I'm not completely satisfied with the new cycle.... it looks sweet, but there's a few little glitches in the front end of the body that I'm still tweaking....

Nahh... Just shows how far Blender has come... So far, I think the tank took me the longest to make, only because I had to trace around all the edges of the turret to make the red glow, with a separate material... and that's a LOT of edges... lol

But even so, these models only took a few hours each... I'll finish up the recognizer tonight sometime, after the kids are in bed... lol

Id be interested in finding out how long the recognizer model took. I did one in 3dsmax 7 and it took about 6 hours to get right. here is the link

Here's an example of my 3D Canvas model.

This one took me about three hours all said and done. 3D Canvas (free, but can be upgraded) can do some neat animations on the fly but has some limitations (with the free version) when dealing with shapes and effects on those shapes.

However, it was great for a newbie to try out 3D work and although it may not conform to perfectionist standards I think it turned out OK.

Nice... I see I'm going to have to get my recognizer model done one of these days. You guys are making me look bad. LOL!!! Great work...

I really like the color and texture you are using. Personally I'm ok with the green recognizers too. There are different colored tanks seen in the movie so I'm ok with there being different colored recognizers too.

EDIT: Here's the finished Recognizer... Oh, and I watched the movie again last night... noticed there were a LOT of scenes where they seemed to have a green tint to the body....

Your completed recognizer looks very good!

I'm a TRON purist and I do prefer the look (down to color and rendering style) of the film models, but you did a very nice job with yours and the color works.

It's been added to your fan art gallery.

Actually yes, all of these models (with the exception of the original lightcycles) are already set up with "empty"s, so they're fully prepped to be animated.... One of these days I'll get around to adding the "empty"s to the originals, but as I said before, that was my very first model, and I had no clue what they were for at the time... lol

As seen in the first video, the tank is movable, with a rotating turret and firing cannon... Newer cycle has rotating wheels... Recognizer has rotating legs (so it can do the 'SQUISH!' move.. lol) as well as a separate movable head area.... etc..
