Post by: StratComm on October 09, 2003, 06:50:45 pm: The lightbringer would look awesome with some translucent glowing shields in those side frames (like the energy chield carried by that one alien in Halo)

Post by: TrashMan on October 09, 2003, 06:51:58 pm: Avvv...Lightbringer. Naming a destroyer after me...gee..You shouldn't have!:D
Has something of the Andromeda in it's design. Is that opening in front a super-beam cannon?

Syrinx...great, only loose the fish-tail.
Sol Destroyer, Sol Corvette - interesting and cool deesign.

Post by: Deathstorm V2 on October 10, 2003, 05:13:16 am: The Minerva reminds me of a fighter called the Jericho in a (thoroughly bad) aerospace game I once owned, Echelon.

Any relation or am I just seeing things?

Post by: Unknown Target on October 10, 2003, 02:10:46 pm: The Syrinx and the Minerva look to Freelancer-ish. For the Syrinx, just flatten the forward body into something like a perseus, and the Minerva...while a good model, I don't particularly like the design ;)

But everything else is INCREDIBLE! I LOOOOVE the Sol Dominion destroyer!

So do I.... :rolleyes:

TrashMan: Oh, haven't noticed your siggy!!! Consider yourself a lucky guy :D
And, yeah that one is loosely based on the Andromeda
That opening in the front is the Hangar.

Raa: I used quad divide on some parts of it :D for an high poly ship that you want to be roundy and organic, quad divid does help :)

Deathstorm: dunno what game you are talking about, so it is a coincidence...

Glad you are liking them :)

Btw, here are the poly counts I am using for the various ship class main hulls:
Fighter/bomber: 0-1000 poly
Cruiser: 1400-2000
Corvette: 2000-3000
Destroyer: 3000-5000 (of which 4000-5000 are rare exceptions, like a Vasudan destroyer I'm making)
Juggernaut (haven't done any...): 4000-7000

Post by: mikhael on October 10, 2003, 07:24:23 pm: I like the Syrinx and the Minerva, as well as the Sol corvette (the front end is just too delicious for words)

Try using subdivide in TS6 ;7 It'll make it all roundy smooth.

Post by: Raven2001 on October 12, 2003, 03:33:28 pm: ah! but I make the subdivide in Blender!!! Then I use the flatten angles tool

I love you.

The first (and only) textured model would be GREAT for the FS setting. There are many mods out there, many great ones, in need of models of such quality. You are a great texturer and a great moddeler.

Don't stop churning out those models. Really amazing work. I just hope someone textures them up, cause any of these could be an instant classic.

In a few words: simply stunning.

Quite posibly one of the best ship designs I've ever seen on HLP, just awesome (http://nodewar.penguinbomb.com/aotd/Raven/GTF%20Syrinx1.jpg)

These models + Aldo's textures = we need a new smily.

oh and, BTW what CIM?

Post by: Raven2001 on October 15, 2003, 03:12:50 pm: Setekh: I hope so!!!

WCCoolmon: yep :)

Phreak: nop!

Rictor: CIM is my little big project... the letters stand for "Caught in the Middle"... Right now I'm working alone on it (except for a hand here and there when ppl can afford it), but I want that to change soon... speaking of soon, keep an eye out for the prologue campaign in the next months. This one will have no new models from me, it will ba a story/plot campaign to give a go to the real thing
