[WIPs] Duat/some rocks double progress thread
Right, first off is a zod space superiority fighter, originally thought of a security craft and as part of a civilian mining corp.


Second is a civilian miner, intended for stripping asteroid fields for valuable minerals. And part of the same organisation as the fighter.


A few of the original doodles for the ships.

Beautiful Oddgrim! Both of them they are amazing. Were they a request from any modders out there like BtA?

No request, these are my entries for the modeling competition. ( When they are done )

The fighter screams Seth MkII for some reason, with a touch of Tauret.

How big is the miner supposed to be ? Not easy to judge from here.

Very cool, I can see the relation was not intentional though.
The miner is about triton sized, maybe a big bigger.

Re: [WIPs] Duat/Nhu double progress thread
Loving the Duat (it's the fighter, right?), although I think it could use some more polies in the "wings" to break the silhuette as it's implied int he texture.

The miner... I dunno, something's odd about it, and I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe because the model doesn't seem that big.
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

The miner seems like a vacuum cleaner. Seems like a small object, not a tritan sized object.

Re: [WIPs] Nhu/Duat double progress thread
You see it small because you're comparing it directly with the fighter. Also it's clear that the model is still in development phase, once some things like maybe turrets or mobile parts are added it will look bigger I'm sure.

Actually I was looking at the concept and the model. Even in the concept, it looks like a small ship.
Of course it is on development phase, hence me making the critic :)

Why can't it be a one man miner for tight spaces inside asteroids? Who made the rule that miners need to be big?

Re: [WIPs] Nhu/Duat double progress thread
I'm being reminded by the Isis, which is fighter-sized. The front part of the miner corresponds to the windscreen of the Isis which (to me) is giving the illusion of it being smaller than it should be.

No one. But if it's supposed to be a one man miner, I reckon it would have some sort of cockpit. Also, there would be no point in having a container (don't think a fighter sized miner would have the ability to refine the ore on-site, and breaking the asteroid in tiny pieces just to fit on the container, would be "stupid")

Re: [WIPs] Nhu/Duat double progress thread
The cannister is, well a way to store away raw materials , not refined ore , that is then transported at a dedicated refinery. The thought process behind having it detectable is to allow the miner to stay in place at the field and the canisters are transported to said refinery by freighters.

Also having the canister behave like cargo crates allows to setup a depot where ships comes in to get teh raw ore to transport away, making a dynamic area to for example setup a mission to take place there.
