Title: Solarian Battleship
Post by: Thorn on May 13, 2003, 11:49:44 am
Title says it all..
Based on the Battleship from Imperium Galactica 2...
Differences are mostly superficial.... Though I do plan to add a few things to it... Turrets... maybe some sort of module mounted on the green section...
My first real attempt at modeling with Lightwave...
Before I add any details to this thing I figured I might as well stick it in Freespace...
Its colourful because I'm still learning how to properly do UV Mapping...
Green bit is the crew section... it rotates..

I wasn't really fond of the human designs from IG2.

Some parts look a bit weedy, but otherwise a good start.

The Kra'Hen and Shinari Battleships make my head hurt... too many curves...

That thing looks designed to break apart in combat.

It might just be me, but the green bit looks far too big.

I've changed it quite a bit now... No access to the thing right now though, so no pics...
It doesnt look nearly as flimsy anymore...
