Re: What are you working on?
:yes:

Configuration is still the same?

It's a light Vasudan cruiser, definitely glass cannon material. I intend to mount two SVas on the front teeth, Rakshasa-style, with an underslung AAAf. Flak turrets on the tail. Compatibility with, say, Petbe cargo containers is a nice thought.

Yay. I only make texture for this baby. Stats, role and lore explanation are GalEmp's part.

Re: What are you working on?
I think I probably should be posting this in my thread on the other side of the forum, since I don't know if this would ever go to Freespace, but people don't tend to go there very often and I sometimes want to shoot at Shivans and the CSA with homegrown spacecraft, so....



Je vous présenter Monsieur LeBrrt.

Any recommendations would be welcome. Also, any idea on how to make uv mapping and texturing less tedious or at least more of a success would be doubly appreciated.

Cool.  Clearly A-10 inspired, but the twin booms look to have come from the P-38 or HD Vampire.

This is a modding community, so pls show off your work where a significant number of people can appreciate them! The Arts & Talents board is plain dead aside the single RPG thread that seems out of place there due to activity.

Originally I had the horizontal stabiliser up top and the whole thing looked like a lovechild of an A-10 and a De Havilland Sea Vixen. The problem with that configuration was that the horizontal stabiliser blocked the glorious engines when looked at from chase view.

Well, I happen to be on that forum game too! Looks like I'll be posting ships here in the future, then. Thanks.

Primary armament in FS-style terms would be 1 bank of 4 30mm 6-barrel Gatling guns and 1 bank of 1 200mm electromagnetic ball bearing launcher. Unlinkable, because the plane doesn't have enough juice to simultaneously run the guns while charging the capacitors, and the recoil of firing everything would probably throw it way off course. After playing on the Valkyrie a lot I have learned that the most sensible gun placement would be to stick them as close together and in-line with the cockpit as possible.

The forum game thread was the only one with posts from this year though.

Just got back to looking at this site after a few years of college and I am loving the work I see here! :D My only complaint is that Esarai hasn't been seen for the last couple years. His art was some of my favorite in all of FSOpen. :sigh:

He hangs out with us on #bp sometimes, Rockstar has (in typical game studio fashion) devoured his life with endless crunch.

Gopniks in my shipyard are off-duty. May be finished or not.

Oooo, Rakshasa 2.0. Looking mighty good! Is this a new ship or a update to an existing one? It looks familier.

A really scary ant at that. From the side it looks a bit like the Lucifer (it got tired of holding it's arms up  :lol:)

Re: What are you working on?
It comes from Sins of a Blue Planet under the name Ahriman along with another, strange looking shivan corvette. I work on her mostly to have a testbed for PBR shivan textures. As a stuff not associated with any project, I will release her... If she is ever finished.

Didn't you wanted to work on a certain different Shivan ship anyway? ;7

This ship deserves some practice before I take it on my workbench, if it ever happen :P
