It's a WIP, be gentle.

Post by: an0n on April 08, 2002, 01:44:22 pm: What's with everyone posting their new models in the space of 5 mins?

F*cking excellent model, although the middle section is a bit blocky and the engines could use some more detail.

Post by: Styxx on April 08, 2002, 02:19:19 pm: That looks like a Terran version of the Voyager... or something...

But it looks good. Now texture it, dammit! :D
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Stunaep on April 08, 2002, 02:50:54 pm: Yup. A terran voyager it is. Now texture it, I've seen so many green/blue/white blobs today that my head hurts.

Or it could be, that I've been drinking too much. :p

That's what I thought too.

First it's a Starship Troopers thing and now Trek.

Post by: Shrike on April 08, 2002, 11:56:07 pm: What is it going to be for? Because if you're gonna convert it to FS, that might work as a Border Worlds corvette for the G.E. Program.... :nod:
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Ryx on April 09, 2002, 12:04:33 am: At the moment It's up for grabs. ;7

Anyway, It could be used in multiple campaigns. I have no problems with that. ;)
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Shrike on April 09, 2002, 12:07:57 am: Well, there might have to be a few changes (especially skins) if we use it for the WC mod...
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Ryx on April 09, 2002, 12:45:35 am: it is a WIP. Changes can be made.

Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Ryx on April 09, 2002, 10:22:35 am: Well, I tried to put some things on there for a little more WC feel. I'm thinking about extruding something out of the rear-bottom section (between the engines).

(http://w1.520.telia.com/~u52019065/UA/od6.jpg)

So... bring it on (http://w1.520.telia.com/~u52019065/help.gif) (:snipe:?)
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Ryx on April 09, 2002, 01:38:55 pm: Another update. more Trekified this time.

(http://w1.520.telia.com/~u52019065/UA/od8.jpg)

I have an idea for another variation of the original hull. Not sure I'll model that one today, though.
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Stryke 9 on April 09, 2002, 01:54:50 pm: No! Not STified!

It was great before! Don't make it Star Trek! Nooooo!

Got the oh-so-subtle hint?;)
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Galemp on April 09, 2002, 02:11:11 pm: I kinda like it. It seems to me like a more robust science cruiser, maybe for exploration into unknown systems. You know what would be great? Put a radar dish on the flat panel on the bottom of the front. I think the one on the Hippocrates would fit nicely. Or, make the 'bridge' structure on top a Charibdys AWACS array.

I don't really like those fins coming out from the engines. Instead, try a single fin coming from the bottom, like the Hecate--see what it looks like.
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Shrike on April 09, 2002, 04:14:48 pm: Hmm.....If you want to make it a WC-style ship, give it a ramscoop inlet on the bottom. If you don't know what that means, basically it's just a squarish indent facing roughly forward. Look here (http://www.3dap.com/hlp/staff/shrike/concordia2.jpg) for the pinkish bits. It's not the clearest but it'll give you an idea of what I mean. :cool:
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Nico on April 09, 2002, 04:40:26 pm: yeah, lots of WC ships since WC3 have those things, ranging from fighters to capships.
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Shrike on April 09, 2002, 04:51:30 pm: Hmmm..... the only fighter where I know they're cap-grade ramscoops is the Dragon. And that's because it has a miniature capital ship drive system.

Post by: Styxx on April 10, 2002, 09:04:12 am: I guess he played... I don't remember ALL ships having those things, but some of the fighters had. The Vampire had them, at least.
Title: Work In Progress
Post by: Nico on April 10, 2002, 09:15:58 am: the panther, too, at least. anyway, even one is enough to say " ships from fighter to capships have that" :ha:
