All ships in this thread have been inspired or are outright copies of lego models i found on the internet
you can find inspiring lego spaceship models yourself at places like this (be prepared for some serious awesomeness):

Furthermore there is no need for credit of any form, just take whatever you need
If somebody has need for any of the development files, like blender files or uncompressend and higher resolution textures, just give me a call and they'll be yours
(P3D links are using much smaller .jpgs as textures and are meant for first impression only!)
These are the ships based on lego models that i've created myself:

:yes: I like the drone very much! Can you post a picture of the original lego model?
-
sure, here you go:
(http://images.mocpages.com/user_images/215/1232132423m_SPLASH.jpg)
not a 1 on 1 copy but pretty close this time around
-
Nice! Is the design yours?
-
You've been quite the prolific modeler, Mr. fightermedic; congratulations.
A point of criticism: Neither the drone nor the fighter really look that "Shivan", in my opinion. Besides the dorsal curved spikes on the drone, they both look more at home in the Terran fleet.
-
Nice! Is the design yours?
no, random find on the internet
it's amazing, there is enough cool stuff out there to fill a lifetime of modeling, hence the thread title
@Lepanto: agreed, they probably aren't going to be the most shivan looking models ever, but i don't think they are terribly wrong either
-
The original lego model reminds me of the GTF Claymore, from INFR1.
-
i've added a P3D of the frigate to the first post
-
Nice model, quite a weird looking shape but at the same time a remarkable refreshing design.
I've never had any lego models, now I think I should have asked for some when kid.
-
added the engines, first post updated
now only detailing in the mid section and the back remains :)
i think this is turnin out to be quite an interesting ship, but i already dread the texturing
-

I agree. I like all those fins and small details you are adding! Nice job! Did you already think what specie/faction is your frigate meant for?
-
I think the main thing that keeps it from looking Shivan is the uniformity from fore to aft. If the spine weren't quite so straight and the length of the side panels less uniform, it'd look plenty Shivan. I'm thinking with a bit of a morphing it could look like the hate-child of the Rakshasa and the Demon, but with the long thin spikes from the Cain.
-
morphing the spine into something less straight might be a good idea indeed, i will see about that
-
the model of the frigate, which i'm going to call SFg Beelzeboul, is now complete and the p3d link updated
on to the textureing
-
That's a great job! Although the design is complex all elements are very neat. I'm looking forward to seeing it textured!
-
To be honest... The frigate doesn't look shivan. Even a little. There are planety of spikes and other shivan stuff, but the main shape is definitely not shivan. Reminds me a second incarnation of Stratcomm's heavy AWACS by DE Team, rather than new shivan warship of death. Maybe some jammer, big freighter, subspace perturber... Whatever.
-
Debris for these better be individual lego pieces...
-
They should be all the bits of the ship broken apart, that way it looks like breaking a Lego kit.
-
some progress with the texture
it's about half way done
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/843/pzwd.jpg)
-
It makes me think of some kind of giant insect.
-
Ahhhhhh! Blender! :shaking:
Nice model.
-

(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/843/pzwd.jpg)
Just goes to show that you can't judge a ship before it's textured. We need more weird-looking shivan ships like this one.
-
all the textures are mapped, now i need to create the UV and bake everything
shutdown and waiting for activation:

(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/843/pzwd.jpg)
This is... Awesome :yes:. But that cage-like structure ruins shivan "feel" of the frigate. Without it, it could be even a good succesor for Ravana :yes:
-
the armour plating will be a seperate submodel, if someone wants to use the ship without it, he is encouraged to do so
but this ship is going to have very limited weapons, it's intended as a ship that launches swarms of drones for attack
-
:yes: :yes:
-
i most make glowmap update:
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/41/urs5.png)
i'm still trying what values work
-
Definitely does look more Shivan, now that it's textured. Still doesn't have the jagged look that I'd expect from Shivans, but overall, I approve.
-
I still don't like the front too much, like, the four red "eye" things, but it's a pretty cool model overall.
-
Not enough triangles. ;)
-
:yes: :yes:
-
started a new fighter, it's going to be a strikebomber
the bombs will be placed on the wings to the far left and right
the guns are not modelled yet
-
These shivan looking ships you're making. What are these ships gonna be? What will be their role. So far the ship looks very Shivan like while at the same time looking very utilitarian. Basically combining both designs into one. Very interesting work, and nice job with the strike bomber so far.
-
These shivan looking ships you're making. What are these ships gonna be? What will be their role.
the Beezeboul has limited anti capital weapons, and is intended for fighter supression, in the form of launching big swarms of drones
in other news: updated the p3d link of the Raptor, which is the aforementioned strikebomber
the basic model is complete :)
i will set up the texture to use team colors
-
Wow! definitely LEGO-style!! Are you going to build a FSO campaign? We could call it "FSO - LEGacy"... ... :drevil: :lol:

:eek:
:yes:
-----------------------
i've gathered previews and download links to all my lego inspired models on the first post, all new downloads will be posted in this thread :)
-
added download links for the Beezeboul and the Imp
the frigate is still suffering from the strange crashes in debug mode, but works on the normal exe, i'm not sure if the crashes in debug mode are a local problem on my PC or a problemwith the model
here are some screens of the frigate in action:

update: i've uploaded the now finished model of the Stalker to P3D, check the OP
-
very nice models! Do you use some kind of preshaped standardized meshes for lego pieces? Or do you use a specific software?
-
nope, everything is modelled by hand and changed as i see fit, although those last models are pretty damn close to the original i suppose
-
modeled this little guy named racoon here who is going to be heavy assault:
-

Indeed they are! Anyway I found this tool for blender on a German forum (http://www.blendpolis.de/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=37706&p=425383#p425353 (http://www.blendpolis.de/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=37706&p=425383#p425353)). I haven't tried it yet, but it looks pretty promising... it may be interesting for you.
-
nice linke whitearrow, sadly it doesn't help with my job, i don't want them to completely look like lego ships ;)
update: i have addes a bit more of a red glow effect to the SDr Imp, it's looking at least a bit more shivan now
-
and here is one more ship, a space superiority fighter this time, the devil
maybe one more model and then i will have to texture them all
i hate texturing
maybe two more models before texturing? :doubt:
-
Looking very awesome.
-
thank you, i have added a third gun though, as i felt 2 would be a bit lacking for a space superiority fighter, and doubling the fire rate via 2 firepoints for each gun a bit over the top
i'm going to handle the racoon and raptor's guns this way though
-
this thread is suffering from a substantial lack of lego
here is the next vessel i'm working on, it's going to be an intereceptor:
(http://images.mocpages.com/user_images/44783/1354260518m_DISPLAY.jpg)
moar pix: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/347654
-
I remember a certain space theme lego set that I used to love when I was younger. Thought I'd share this, maybe you could make use out of this and perhaps turn it shivan?
(http://images.wikia.com/lego/images/b/bf/7691_Mothership.jpg)
-
i could see that one working, too bad i didn't know of it when i was doing the Imp, i guess it would have been better than my current attempt
ah well, too late for that, mabe someday i'll do a second shivan drone (or someone else does)
anyway, here is what i've got of the interceptor so far:
-
the rear is finished, the arms remain
like this, it could even work as a medium bomber
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/818/lyzl.png) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/818/lyzl.png/)
edit: p3d updated, these arms are killing me, has been quite the pain to get them as far
-
aaaaaaand finished, p3d updated again
quite an interesting and unique design if i dare say
20k polys here, these arms are quite heavy in this regard :nervous:
-
I'm liking these models a lot and look forward to playing around with them. Also I was going to say they would work really well with team colours, but then I re-read the first post. :P Keep up the good work! :)
-
thanks ssmit132
speaking of team colors:
texturing ships in almost all grey is odd, did a little bit of work on the raptor today:
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/801/qa7o.jpg)
-
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/268/szwt.jpg)
-
cool :yes:
how does the engine part look like?
-
It's incredible how productive You are and how fast you're learning. Very cool stuff :yes:
-
I have to agree with Betrayal, your ships are improving at a beautiful speed :).
-
testing all the team color stuff:
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/577/5iu8.jpg)
(maximum blue)
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/706/wy2d.jpg)
blue one without lighting :
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/546/jl3i.jpg)
-
I like the Decepticon one much more :yes:
-
this model shows quite well that with a good concept to start with and a bit of practice even a beginner like myself can do something quite decent
the lego model this is based on is just too cool and detailed to completely fail in the modeling part
first ingame tests and playing around with color settings:

(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/542/owr9.jpg)
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/34/mpf8.jpg)
-
very nice, are those Helios bombs "strapped" to the wings? :)
-
That looks pretty cool; doesn't look completely toy-like and out-of-place, which I expected based on the techroom team color tests above. Very nice work.
-
very nice, are those Helios bombs "strapped" to the wings? :)
they are visible secondaries, if that is what you mean
this is the model it is based on btw:
(surprise, it looks exactly as my ship)

what remains now is to assign all the small slide thrusters
-
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/854/m64d.jpg)
I spot a certain better looking Ticonderoga in the background. Did you put that together yourself or download it somewhere?
Btw very nice work with the cockpit.
-
it's the default one from the TV-War, all i have done is assigned one or two different tile-maps from the awacs tiles
-
finished! here are two more screens:

although a bit of work remains to be done on the raptor, i did start with texturing the racoon today
there isn't very much left to texture
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/33/n2nm.png)
-
as i feared cockpits do not support team colors
Did you mantis this ?
-
i've never used mantis and don't know how to do anything with it, so no
-
Go to da Mantis (http://scp.indiegames.us/mantis/), create an account, log in to account, hit Report Issue, fill in the info (which should be fairly straightforward for this one), and boom, bug filed.
-
cool cockpit, awesome awesome models. :yes:

who could resist such a charming instruction, will do :)
@Rodo: thanks, glad you like them
-
over the weekend i've been stuck on a place without internet, so i've started working on the last ship of this set of ships, a heavier bomber
discuss:
-
update on the racoon, somehow i like the raptor quite a bit more, this one didn't come out as good as i hoped
still, it's decent enough
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/12/2gmq.png)
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/12/hrr2.png)
-
If by decent you mean pretty awesome.
-
That radar is super sexy. How did you get/make it?
-
it's a Battlestar Galactica like radar as Diaspora uses
i've just added a freespace-like backround to it together with a bit of recoloring and using the well know radar icons from the mediavps for all the freespace ships
what you can't see is that i've added a custom loop sound effect for the radar and little beeps everytime something appears on or disappears off the radar
If by decent you mean pretty awesome.
thanks for the compliment, but in my world it is Oddgrim's work that adjectives like awesome should be saved for :P
-
because finishing models is overrated and i didn't feel like doing all the boring little things that remain to be done on the other 2 ships

I like this ship a lot. What is it called, Devil?
-
Got some knack at model building, didn't you? :p
Awesome work, looks really good.
-
Oh, that reminds me, I'd also be interested in seeing the lego model of that ship.
-
i'm sticking so close to the lego models on the last 2 ones that it's almost pointless to show them ;) my lack of creativity is disturbing
(http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4013/4615049899_7d9eb6b0b8_o.jpg)
the dude has some cool other designs too:
http://flickeflu.com/photos/nxtiberius/interesting
the lego model is titled Blue Devil, so i used Devil as a working title, later i was thinking to name it Tasmanian Devil, but that's just a strange name for a fighter
-
finished! it's quite cool indeed :nervous:

Thanks.
Well I certainly approve of giving the ship the darker look you gave it compared to the model. I think it looks much better than the model in that regard.
How about Azure Devil?
Makes me think of this smiley: :mad2:
Devil Squadron logo! :D
Hmmm, the Blue Devil is my 2nd favourite out of all those ships, behind the FV7 Renegade.
-
i feel this sudden urge to rename the ship to "pink kitten"
i have no idea why though
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/14/k0b0.png)
i LOVE team colors ;)
-
It doesn't even look bad pink! :)
-
I like the design but IDK, I think you're hewing too close to the original Lego.
-
Lego ships?!
You could use them in a full blown mod.
Awesome :nod:
-
This is the awesome looking Freespace 2 ship mods I've ever seen. I plan to use many of your models. The bomber "Venom", Interceptor "Gaia", Space Superiority "Devil", Heavy Assault "Racoon", Stealth/Recon "Stalker", and the Strikebomber "Raptor" are going to be used as the Coalition's (the alliance between the GTVA and the CDF) primary fighters and bombers in my upcoming mod, FreeSpace: Reunited, alongside the Vasudan and Shivan warships, the SFg Beelzeboul, the SDr Imp, the SSP Chakra and the GVCv Mahal. Finish up your work, and I download them for use ASAP.
-
I like the design but IDK, I think you're hewing too close to the original Lego.
yes, but it would get worse if i would try to get creative with things, trust me ;)
thanks for all the praise guys :)
texturing the interceptor is in progress:
(http://imageshack.us/scaled/large/560/e453.png)
i think it's going to have an interesting cockpit view with those ringed armes

if you are not in love now, you have no heart!
-
Are they actually some random-googled fan made concepts by various people, or packs supported by Lego corporation? I'm just curions, never seen designs like this before. I want to see Stratum modelled :D! Good job with other models :yes:.
-
they are all random finds on various lego related sites
i can tell you, if i would post a picture of every cool lego model i find here, this thread would be 100 pages long already :D
peoples creativity knows no boundaries as soon as they take lego pieces into their hands
-
Each of these ships so fr are brilliant, very good work on each so far, really looking forward to see many more creations occur this way. The more variation the better as well!
Definitely reminds me of the time where I switched my LEGO building themes from medieval towards space ships (as a direct consequence of running into Freespace 1 in 1998 while I was just in my teens), glad to see both united in such a way while feeling like they are natural terran space ships.
-
wauu, congratulations about the beauty ships man :)
-
can't somebody pay me to model stuff like this for a living?
what an extremely awesome space-city:

http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/191185
-
That looks very impressive.
-
finally finished the UV layout of the interceptor, it has been by far the most painfull ship (i've done) to unwrap so far
this means it's going to be completed in the next days, and once it is i will release all the ships that are complete now, with the missing bomber to follow whenever i have time

You love making these, don't you. :D
-
Are those coils part of the weapons system, shields, or engines? If they were part of the engines, and if this was intended for the FS universe, it could be some Unification War era ship, perhaps the first fighter equipped with an independent subspace drive.
-
I love how I can look at those ships and identify specific LEGO brick types that I was playing with when I was a kid. Heh. Nostalgia.
Keep it up!

the coils are intended as part of the weapons, but the model can be used however campaign creators like
more tests, now all i need to do is to create shield icon and cockpit:

I see that as either a Shivan or maybe Vasudan. Destroyer size or bigger.
Frankly that would look awesome.
Cheers for the links.....downloading now and looking forward to using them.

Please do make a destroyer model, we could use more Zod or Shivan destroyers

:bump: anything new?

no, i've not even spent a minute modeling last month
super busy at university right now
-
Jesus ****ing christ man, that is mental!
Good mental!

updated the bomber at long last, the model itself is nearly finished now

aaaaaaand finished
now to texture it :shaking:
-
:yes: real cool bomber!
-
I wish I could model so beautifully.
Keep up the good work.
Perhaps a lego inspired campaign is in order. If you decide to create one PM me up :D
-
textured, hooray

now for the boring part, UV-mapping, lods etc.

That looks Bad***. I liked it all red but I like it more textured like that. :yes: :yes: :yes:
-

almost complete :)
-
Awesome! what's missing?
-
only the shield icon and the side thrusters
should be done in an hour
btw: i have updated all my fighters to use external primary weapon models, it doesn't look 100% awesome on the older models as they have not been built with this in mind, but i still like it, and maybe i will make slight adjustments to them later
-
i has something new!
it's a corvette this time, that is still missing all the turrets though
i'm thinking about texturing it in vasudan style, but with team color support too
further plans are to add a shield subsystem, for those who want to use it
-
the model itself is finished, let me show you some test renders:

however, i'm thinking about doing a bit of this:
(http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/lolaldanee/Untitled3_zps6dcef260.png)
that is, modeling a bit of interior and making some of the armour destroyable
-

Parts of this skeleton will be shown after some part of the ship blew up to hell? I'm not fully understand how it's supposed to work. If exactly as I imagined, this is cool!

at a guess destroyable sub objects
-
that's right
as more and more of the armour gets blown to pieces, the sceleton of the ship will come through
the question i'm still elaborating at this point is just how small i can make the individual armour parts
-

I've seen this kind of thing in Wing Commander Saga. Particularly if I recall the Kilrathi freighters, you can make a real mess of them.
-
Make the subobjects fly off as Legos, and you will be a modeling god.

Hey, that could perhaps be a fun side project for him. An actual lego ship that breaks into pieces. :)
We've got Lego Star Wars and such being released as games, Lego Freespace? :D

Well after watching the Lego Movie the idea of a lego freespace (Lego anything atm) would be AWESOME!
Question fightermedic: have you considered doing one of those big lego battleship things you showed images of in an earlier page or were they more showing the many possibilities?
-
considering the insane amount of work this corvette turns out to be, it's rather unlikely i will tackle such an enormous ship in the near future, i'd guess it would take half a year or more to do it properly if you can not work on it full time
also: splitting up the armour parts is booooooooooooooring, *gosh*
it's time to finish this damn ship, it's really getting annoying by now
-
Well thats a shame.
Well keep it up and we will be blasting the armour parts off in now time :D
-
testing some... tests :shaking:
the ship has almost 200 visually destroyable subobjects, of which 92 are seperate armour plates

some of the backside armour blown away:

yes, you can even fly inside:

damage to the front:

after having solved my troubles, now even with thrusters:
(http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/lolaldanee/screen0169_zpsb1bb8365.png)
this ship now includes every last feature i could come up with!
c'est l'avant-garde - and i have to say i'm quite pleased with the result
-
Shouldn't there be any cables, greebles and other stuff under the destroyed armor plates? All that You have is cool, but I realised that the interior of the ship is pretty empty.
-
i see where you are coming from, but sometimes you have to know when to stop, both from a performance and a modeling-effort point of view
that said, i think it does look more empty than it actually is on these screens, and furthermore 99% of the time either only little parts of the armour will be destroyed which will make it look a lot more solid, or the player would not even have time to notice the details
but yea, there's always someting more you can do
-
new ship, a science vessel
nothing too fancy, i've basically only built it to train myself how to use the cycles renderer
-
It's great to see you trying to push the boundaries on how destructible that ship is, its a great idea also! Too bad it requires such a huge amount of extra work as I'd love to see things like this, big and small, across many ships and objects.
Your newest ship also looks promising!
-
completely pointless testrender: the glass ship

D: This is unbelievable and insane. That many subobjects!!?!
It's Geomod, Jim, but not as we know it.

:pimp:

:bump:
That looks badass, and I am ashamed that I hadn't seen it until now. Amazing. :yes:
[EDIT]I am going to highlight the **** ut of that when you release it. :p
-
Keep on rollin! :yes:
-
updated the p3d link with the final model, now also on first page :)
-
You call it a science vessel, I think it looks more like it should be some kind of fuel freighter.
-
i have finally found the time and motivation to fully finish the ship!
(http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/lolaldanee/screen0022_zps9b0bd53b.png~original)
has it really been in May that i startet to work on that? wow, that took some while :/
anyway, it is now finished, and will upload the 3 models that are not uploaded yet soon :pimp:
-
Nice.
Can we get some more shots closer up perhaps?
I do get the science vessel look from being informed it is a science vessel, but personally I would have thought it looks more like perhaps a frigate of some kind.
But maybe it could be both. Who says a science vessel has to be a wimpy, fragile thing? They are important ships, why not have a science vessel be able to take care of itself to an extent? Maybe not a true warship, but considerably better equipped to defend itself and absorb punishment than some freighter?
-
for closeup looks there is that P3D on the first page :D
as for the ship looking like a science vessel or not: everybody can of course use it as one sees fit, but the ship has no turrets :P
-
the download link for the Aardvark, Snake and Penguin is coming right now, will be there in a few minutes :)
it also includes updates on the older fighters, so redownload if you have downloaded them before
edit: check out the first post for links etc.
hopefully i didn't forget to include any important files
-
my christmas present for the fs community:
new textures for the mahal, i think it looks noticeable better now, better backed texters thanks to cycles rendering, better colour palette, and a lot less compression artifacts!
updated download link comming soon
edit: download link updated
-
Looks sweet. Thanks! :)
-
so, i have heard you like PBR ships:
(http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/lolaldanee/screen0030_zpszgjzrp6h.jpg)
tried my hands on creating textures for physical based rendering for the penguin
download will follow shortly
-
These are incredible. :jaw:
Two things:
First, could you possibly be convinced to model some of the official classic '90s Space sets? Space Police, Blacktron, Ice Planet?
Second: WHERE DID YOU GET THAT PYRO?
-
:jaw:..... Please excuse me while I go and retrieve my jaw from the under world

i have looked at some of the old classics, acutally that was how it all started, but in the end the ships created by people just look better most of the time :D in the end this is not about creating lego ships, just about creating ships who happen to be "inspired" by lego models
the pyro is in the wiki, i just created normal and team color maps for it
thanks for all the praise :)
-
here is the promised download link for the new PBR based penguin textures

playing around with pbr textures and the unreal engine 4

Sorry to bump, but i have found that team colours no longer work. The last build i got it working on was 3.7.2. Is this a table fix? If so what needs to get fixed?
-

Format of team color table entries shouldn't have changed; team glow maps were added, but that shouldn't break previously-working team color textures.
-
Thats weird then, because all these ships are coming up as grey and only grey.
-
Made this recently. Took me a while to figure out, with the Hecate's hull design being... what it is, but I am pleased with the end result.
Instructions are available on my bricklink page.

Someone should make a Freespace model out of that!

I second the motion! A Hecate Mk 2, GO!
