I was originally going to completely redo my broadsword. I didn't like my attempt. I picked up the broadsword over at Solsector that Corsair made and started playing around with it. Poly-reducing, symetry etc.... Theres also a piece of one of the HTL freespace models
It still needs some work, think the top/bottom turrets are too small.

Wow that looks like a crazy mix of a Broadsword, Raptor and a FS fighter I have forgotten the name of.
Now give the missile pod some swarm missiles ^_^
-
Is it a... medusa engine?
-
You're right about the turrets, they look like peashooters on that thing! The guns at the rear look a little pathetic too! Something this big needs something more intimidating!
-
I assume this is not for WCS...
I really like this design, but would you like to consider my suggestion? :nervous:
What about more turrets, at least 4 of them? I'd really like to see a nicely defended bomber close to WWII ones. In addition, I think turrets could have two more gunpoints.
Am I exaggerating with this request? Does the code allow something like that?

It already has three so one more wouldn't really make a difference.

I was original thinking of having 4, one on each missile section. But after several restarts on the rear turret, i opted for two (plus the rear gunner). Actually for the rear gunner I was trying to aim for something like the nose of a B-17, but failed miserably.

Actually they're suppose to be torpedo tubes. Although they might be a bit too small though.
Also engine exhausts need some work. I think I'll redo them, then again it could be the fact their textured and the hull isn't. :blah:
-
are those medusa engines?
-
Ya, i think. It's bomber04hp.pof. I tried several different methods including having just three engines, in a triangle forumation, but it looked very awkward.
-
the turrets need more beef :D
otherwise its pretty good
-
Better? :)

a little :D
-
Can you try to seperate the missile boxes so that each is realy a box and not connected with the other?
Might look interesting.
-
Hey scooby, I've been thinking about one thing: Why not try to model WCmovie or WCacademy series ships? Might be used in the future! :nod:

At least make them bigger...
-
I hate the WCmovie ships well mostly.
The Dralthi looks at least somewhat like a Dralthi and the Claws hangarbay looks also pretty cool. For the rest....I don't like it.
-
I didn't see much: I didn't recognise anything, including the big "tube" ship at the end.
On the other hand, academy... perhaps worth a shot.

This is the movie Dralthi
As for not seeing anything familiar...yes there isn't anything familiar when it comes to the ship designs.
-
Meh, I want it in regular FS campaigns too...

Are you kidding me? That human fighter was a thing of sheer beauty, the likes of which I've not seen since a homemade airplane of my childhood which used a tomato can as a fuselage.
(that was sarcasm if you missed it - WCMovie has some of _the_ ugliest fighters I've seen ANYWHERE in sci-fi)
-
What's the scale on that compared to say an Ursa?

Till the part with the tomato I realy thought "WHAT?" ^_^
Oh and if you didn't know...this image was the first draft for the WC movie Rapier.

Yeah, it looks like it would have a Sath for lunch and a Demon for dessert :yes:

Yeah...the REAL F-44 Rapier from Wing Commander I, they SHOULD HAVE used that instead of the fudge piece of junk...
-
Actually, continuity geeks feel it's rather the C-117 rapier (a sort of predeccessor, as the Wc1 ship is a rapier 2). Same thing, the dralthi is a KF 100, ancestor to the D mark 1. :doubt:

WCS or not I'm going to use it :D
-
Scoob, see that thing for the rapier. do that next if you can.
-
Just saw this thread.
Hell yes. :D
-
Now in fruity colors :D (it's uvmapped)

I feel somehow like I am to blame for this...
-
It looks delicious.
Was it only me, or did anyone else see "Big Bertha" and think of that artillery piece from Total Annihilation?
-

Medusa bomber. :P THat's what your forgetting. XD
-
Not sure if it's the angle, but it looks like there's something funny going on with the nose?
It's not on the unmapped version on page 1.
-
Opps, fixed that. It was just a UV and texturing issue.
-
nothing's wrong with the nose. It is angled in areas and the camera angle can do that. :p
-
Actually it looks like it has two buck teeth, it's not missing area, it just got painted black.
-
ah, that. Yeah, you are right about that. that kinda screws it up some. :/
-

I'd guess it was a reference to the real Big Bertha (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bertha_%28howitzer%29)
-
hell, that would look painful on the ship! XD

Yup, I was thinking of the real thing. Actually i've named it Claymore, as big bertha is a nickname.
