hello.. i am trying to model in 3d the mars rover and can't find the correct material, so I was wondering whether anyone in here has access to more information than I do and cares to help.
I am looking for detailed pictures of rover parts from all sides (top, left, right and bottom). I am attaching a few pics for the members to see the progress of my work. Trying to be as accurate as possible. Process is really slow since I have to make stuff out of bad reference pics I've tried collecting material from the nasa site, from raw images coming from the rover, from roobtics' sites etc, but couldn't come up with the correct reference i am seeking. if anyone cares to help, please do so ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() -------------------- |

Hi Scooterlord
Awesome render on the model. As a handy reference, here's a comparison between your deck-render (left) and a clean-deck view (of Spirit in this case). In the version on the right, the HGA, LGA and PMA are all or mostly removed. Before anyone mentions it, of course we are not worried about colours either at this stage. Lighting and textures will fix that. Remember that there are tiny differences between the two vehicles, and you match up pretty well on your version. I did notice a few very small missing items of the deck, so I hope that you can compare and match them up to your impressive standards. Can't wait to see the final results ![]() |

What a cool thing to do!
...however the rover you are shoinw is the opportunity and not the spirit I am modeling (unless I got the names wrong off the internet). There are a MILLION differences just between them. I have a top deck version of the spirit and it matches pretty nice I might say ![]() So, you can't compare between these two photos, but you can compare my render to this: http://pancam.astro.cornell.edu/pancam_ins...2_L456_crop.jpg -------------------- |
