american chopper

viktor · Mon 29/11/2004 17:38:38

I was bored last night while watching American choppers (orange counti choppers) so I got thinking (a realy unusual phenomenon

) Why not make a game about those guys. I sent them an e-mail and am still waiting for the anwser. But I already made some characters. If anyone is familiar with the show you can giwe me some tips on how to improwe the looks. If you aren't you can help me anyway

They look like the real persons .

good job .
I'm sure they won't care but it will be up the the people that produce the show I would guess .

I think that that would be up to Orange county choppers since they are the owners of the copywright. Thanx BTW.

Actually, when I stood next to Sr. he was much shorter than me

Ã,Â But then, I'm 6'4" so a good ammount of people are shorter than me.

About the pix ...

Paul Sr.
Looks pretty good ... the hair line could use a little work but the body shape is a good representation. And the face looks really like him.

Paulie
looks a little off though. Ã,Â I think the goatee is the wrong color. Ã,Â Plus his beard goes up his cheeks, it's not just a goatee.

Also there IS a game made for these guys. Ã,Â I just saw the commercial for it yesterday!

Very nice.
Arms shoulder be longer though and they need knees.

I don't know the tv show you're on about, though

BTW. What's the name of the game that was already made.

Make sure that if you do the game, Paul Sr. is always bitching at Jr. Also make sure Jr. disappears for a few hours during the middle of the day for no reason

viktor · Tue 30/11/2004 13:37:23

I was planing on that for shure. But I don't know if I'm ewen going to be making the game since I hawen't reciewed a reply jet.

If the game is going to be made, than yes. They are important just the same as Paul and Paulie. Although they would be just side characters. I had plans that paulie and paul would switch through chapters ( but naybee I'll make it similar to two of a kind or Dott) - But that dosn't belong in this topic so I'm just going to shut up

.

EDIT: Painted ower Paulie- think he looks better now. Changed the goatie a bit and extended the arms...

Just make it anyway. If they disagree, change the names and sprites slightly

viktor · Tue 30/11/2004 19:42:48

You shure I'd get through with it?
Plus I would need a good story writer and puzzle designer. I wana make a the best game till now (of my own). You know my games, they don't all hawe a realy intersting plot or puzzles...

Moox · Wed 01/12/2004 04:27:12

I saw the commercial for the game, its called American Chopper... Its an arcade style race game.

viktor · Wed 01/12/2004 06:21:50

well I googeld for it a bit and the best I could come up with was this:http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/244533.asp It's a combination of a sim and arcade game.

viktor · Wed 01/12/2004 20:27:52

well uhm...
here's mikey. I also renamed the topic so it would make more sense.

InCreator · Wed 01/12/2004 21:00:16

"Mikey" looks bad.

* skin color is way too red. beard & stuff can't fight its way out from so strong skin color.

*Right (his right) foot could be more faced towards the way he's facing. Feet should support more, too.

everything else looks okay to me.

poc301 · Wed 01/12/2004 21:59:50

Mikey needs a bigger stomach too

viktor · Thu 02/12/2004 07:19:45

Yeah he is rather large in real life. But if you look at him out front he dosn't look that large...

EDIT:
here's Mikey (again) edits are velcomed

P.S: Does anyone hawe a good reference picture of Vinnie. I keep googling and looking over their website but I can't find any usable picture. The ideal picture would be a front wiew.
