Well...I've recently got through my truespace headaches, and decided to just model in d3d mode...but that's not the point...

The point is, I've modeled a nifty (ish) new corporate civillian ship, a corporation ship, probably like a larger yacht to draw parallels from real life, and it sorely needs detail...I've got the basic shape worked out, and it's around 200 polys...

hey, that's pretty cool.  Need more views though, I can't tell if the hull in the middle stays the height, or if it lowers. and get a bottom/back side view too :nod:

Try doing something with the nose, like the sharp end of a Fenris. And try putting some gubbinz on the engine end of it, it looks like there's a large ammount of plain, um, plane.

the design is nice, it would fit perfectly in my mod (if i knew how to TS lol....), but i got a plethora of textures that would make your ship look civvy enough. if interested PM/IM me.

Cool. :yes:

As has been said, it needs some details. What about some little stubby fin-type thingies on the sides at the back, to break up that big flat vertical face. A sensor array on the front would be cool, a couple of irregular spiky things like on the bottom of the Orion, or like the front of the Marine cruiser (the Sulaco) from Aliens. That'd look cool as well.

Is it going to have a shuttlebay, and do you plan to release it or is it held back for a specific project? My campaign could use a ship like this, it's pretty much perfect for what I was planning....

hmm...stubby fin things? elaborate a bit...I don't quite understand what you mean there.

I'm adding some antenaii (or however you spell it) and a few little levels here & there...the middle section inside needs a bit more, but I'm not sure what. I'll try to end it like the front of the fenris, but then people will go "hey, that looks like the front end of a fenris", and I'm not sure I want that :p

Shuttlebay: mebby...now that I think about it, that'd make a nice thing to take up a bit of space on the side or the bottom...:drevil:

EDIT: well, since it is about 1 AM, I should probably pack it in...status updates:

top/side, with new antenae...still need something to go on the sides...



and a (dark) bottom image showing some of the shuttle bay (which I'm not completely happy with, but I could use a bit of inspiration...)

Is this to be a passenger or cargo ship?

If it's a passenger ship you could put some observation decks on it, or some observation domes, ala Coral Vanda

That would make a great cruiser for my mod. only prob is that there are going to be none of the FS "flat turrets" on my ships only rotateing ones. Anyone here know where I could find a how too on FS ship making for Mya 3D?

Anaz: Models comming along. :yes: I like the front dealies and all the other stuff.

As for the fighter bay, well it'd basically only hold like a wing of shuttles at the most, right? Well you could put little claws around the fighterbay, or make it look like a star destroyer sort of thing, maybe?
