SO COOL.

[Nicro327]

[Nicro327]

[217lollipop]

Awesome

[xGODxSENTx716]

Awesome, looks so good :)

[DEVASTATOR127]

Just Add some colour and this would be awesome

[laserbeamlightning]

Nice but it kinda copies the original.

[felderup]

it's good it copies the original, it can be used in fanvids and stuff, it could get very dynamic, and considering the optimus prime prostate cancer psa done by robot chicken, it could get very weird.

[nikobanget]

impressive... do it more longer dude...

[pranawarman]

where did you download this "Maya" software?

[Mathiashamzamirza]

@pranawarman It's free if you are a student!

Wait you weren't serious?

[pranawarman]

@Mathiashamzamirza of course i'm serious dude, just want to know where to download it, cause i'm still a high school student, and i cant find a good animation school to continue my study, so better learn by myself

[Mathiashamzamirza]

@pranawarman Oh you have waited for two years?

I feel sorry for you

Go to facebook(dot)com/Autodeskedcom­munity?sk=app_180884248665675

*Pretty good* is putting it lightly.

Very nice job!

[anupamthecreator]

Great Man!!!

But 1 Thing - When he gets up, if he uses his hands to get up..instead of just emergin, it would look great..great animation though! which soft is this btw/?

[jose7alfredo]

the head moves so fast

[legoindyshortround]

let's see you do better

[jose7alfredo]

xD its only a suggestion xDD

[legoindyshortround]

well ok

[karandasiceman]

epic!m learning maya,so i know how difficult something like that would be.

[the50first]

Holy shit...How long did you spend studying the transformation cycles? Cause this is pretty damn accurate compared to some of the remake's i've seen.

[bhujil]

make a how to do this video too

[TurboZombieSC]

Wow, now that you asked nicely, he's sure to do it!!! >_>

[RoBotz05]

very closer to the movie transformation

[commanderchurch]

Make his head come out a tad bit slower..

But omg when I saw this I was blown away...no hidden parts or parts that just vanish...

You get a gold star :D

[xatrag]

This is absolutly great you are the best

[robinmitra1]

its pretty awesome dude! it would be great if u cud tell me how u planned the model for transformation?

[marykotas]

This will sound impossible but.. can u give me the model 3d. :D

i know u can´t.. but nice work, awesome!

hehe bye i will learn to use maya.

[primus2506]

yea your right its impossible sorry, this model has been treated like a son to me since i built it to be honest. dont think id ever be able let him go sorry. thanks for looking by the way

[Rachamacha]

make a copy of it and sell it...

[primus2506]

i did put my models of soundwave and megatron up for sale in past but i guess they were mainly to expensive to buy to be honest ..... and after 6 months work on optimus here ( including the finshed texture work)... i cant let him go cheap sorry...... gd luck with learning maya by the way

[mastermindzh]

Wow that's really awesome. But can you tell us wich program u used? Give me the name of the program plz the buying won't be a problem :D

[primus2506]

think ive answered this question a dozen times already to be honest. i use maya. thanks for watching by the way.

[spider853]

Ok, the big question is, Is that a predefined geometry o you hide it in transformation process?.

[primus2506]

dont fully understand your question sorry. i built everything you see in that animation myself from scratch if thats what you mean. thanks for looking.

[spider853]

I mean if the initial transformer and after transformation is the same mesh or you hide the the car pieces in transformation process

[primus2506]

yes it is the same mesh

[TheLightFIlms]

3dmax?

[visualcatch]

maya, he said that in one of his comments ;)

[VPT2]

A++++

[XdiggydogX]

Do you have to have the toy to do the video????

[primus2506]

i do have the toy but it didnt help at all for the animation i did here because the toy transforms very much differently than my model here and optimus in the movie transforms.

[parkourguy123]

yo, wat soft ware u using? is it free off the net?

[primus2506]

same software they used in the movie (maya). unfortunately it is very expensive software but u can download a free learning edition from autodesk . c o m, its something that takes a long time 2 learn tho by the way. good luck with any1 that tries. thanks for interest by the way.

[parkourguy123]

yo, i downloaded the 30day trail maya, im still learning how t use it tho, oh and is there a way to download characters?

[primus2506]

not really no. there are sites out there tho that other artists sell ther models on for others 2 buy and use. gd luck with learning it by the way.

[XdiggydogX]

Whoa thats awwsome

[jubjub250]

hey dude can i have the model, it would look really cool in something im doing

and course, i will give you credit for the model. thanks.

ps. awsome animation, well done.

[sicksadisticshit]

wow, cool add textures

[VPT2]

bitchen

[thojyout23]

hey let me ask you this, did you have to model the insides of the truck to like the engine and gas tank and such, cuase that really is the hard part for me cuase if im doing a blackout model, i dont know what the hell is inside an mh-53 pavelow copter!

[Aonoyn]

pretty awesome! just add a few minor details, and whammo!

[JDJABBA]

WOW 10/10

[garramadman72]

thats how lkong it sould take to transform i hate the gay cartoons where it takes like less then a second to transform i liked the really old transformers where optimus prime took like a min to transform those where good

[flangvik]

Du you haw a MySpace?`??

[primus2506]

i do yes, but only use it for people i know sorry. Not on it that often anymore anyway to be honest.

[flangvik]

No no i whas to see the making of this Transformer.I haw been der before but i haw reformat my computer so i lost the link and bookmarks(sorry bad english i am from norway)

[primus2506]

my myspace username is primeforce. you should be able to view my work in progress blog of my model on there without bein friends anyway i think. Nearly complete all the texture work now :).

[flangvik]

You are a 3d and cgi master Can you please make a tutorial For a basics Transformer.

[primus2506]

i did make a tutorial for my generation 1 version of megatron model a while ago which i sell for £7.99. Send me a message if you wish to purchase it anyway. Thank you for the interest in my work by the way. cheers.

[flangvik]

Ok.....But can you make a tutorial about the car modeling.I am sorry if i make you made !!

[primus2506]

i would mate, but i dont really have time for it sorry. there are many 3d car tutorials that will help you if you just search for 3d car tutorial on google for example. after you know how to model a car etc, you should be able to figutre out modelling other pieces of a transsformer without worry. good luck with your project.

[flangvik]

Thanks

But..i haw olrady search on google.:)Its okay i shall not ask anny more

if you haw msn please send me the adress

Easyer to take then:)

[vincymon]

wait a minute? are you saying this /\ is nearly complete.

can't wait.

[primus2506]

yes, only have a few more pieces on the head to texture and he will be complete :). keep your eye on my channel to see the fully textured version of this model coming soon. You can see a work in progress blog on my myspace mentioned above somewhere too. thanks.

[flangvik]

Nice

[matrixwill]

Awesome!!

[Bobzeaux]

Tell me truthfully from one animator to another; is there any cheating involved with this transformation? It looks awesome, but I'm just wondering if this Prime could physically exist if someone wanted to build it.

[primus2506]

it can be created physically yes, and transformed without cheating... the only thing that is maybe different to a physical model is that 1 or 2 pieces float to their new location when transformed. hope makes a little sence sorry...not easy to describe to be honest. thanks for all comments so far by the way.

[Bobzeaux]

Oh no, I get you. I'm just looking at YOUR Prime here and I'm noticing he doesn't have the pretty armor plating on the upper arms. I couldn't tell if that's the result of an incomplete model or a complete model with a realistic transformation applied to it and the arm pads simply wouldn't exist for such a transformation.

What I'd REALLY like to see is '07 Prime transform when he's not in close-up, so you can make out where everything goes. (You never get a chance to see that in the movie. >:P)

[ALEE775]

This is awesome! very good work. Will you be able to post a wide shot 360 degree view of this transformation? cheers.

[primus2506]

i could yea, but this 1 took upto a week of non stop rendering using mental ray which stopped me doin much else with my pc while it was busy rendering. am currently working on the texture work at the moment so wont be doing anymore animating till i complete the texture work sorry. subscribe to my vids and you will get a notification when i upload my next video. thanks for comment by the way.

[vincymon]

we look forward to it.. i agree with ALEE775 about the angles..the movie never did show optimus' transformation clearly. shots from different angles would help i think, anywayz your'e the expert.

[DarkHunter335]

A true incredible masterpiece!

[vincymon]

I WISH I COULD GIVE YOU 10 STARS FOR TAKING ON THIS INITIATIVE! P.S. don't do it as fast as the movie, it wasn't that clear anyway.

BUT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR TO BUILD MY PHYSICAL MODEL OF HIM YEAH!!!!!!!!

[angryscott]

I can't wait to see this motherf****r fully textured and rendered...that is awesome.

[unpicked1]

Oh, I'm using maya 8.5, is there much difference between it and 2008?

[primus2506]

not really no.... has a few extras, but cant say i used much difference during the making of this at least. if an upgrade is gona cost u, i suggest u stay with 8.5 for now till the nxt upgrade is released (dunno when that will b tho).

[unpicked1]

Okay, guess I'll wait then. Thanks man.

[unpicked1]

Looked good to me, man!!

[nounderwearday]

excellent cus :)

[DemronZer0]

dude, it looks just like him in the movie!!!! this is so amazeing!! what program do you use?

[primus2506]

maya 2008. thanks for the comment by the way. cheers.

[pscoop138]

great work!

[tangandrea]

Amazing 3D work there!

[scanprod]

That was great. Its nice to see it more clearly than in the movie. Keep it up.

[CarolineDH]

that was awesome!

[cutiefruity1]

[Punisher4000]

WOW!

All that hard work is starting to pay off!!!!!!

[nard3456]
