Well, I was damn tired of working, so I decided to take a break messing with MAX for an hour or so. I've worked on the desings for the Neo-Atlanteans, my faction for Libra Wars at Warpstorm. Here is the result, a lot of works in progress, so please don't be that rough on me. Just some preview renders of what I got so far.
Neo-Atlantean Logo:

Neo-Atlantis Prime:

Neo-Atlantean Cruiser:

Comments and ideas for improvement are welcome. :)
-
The city needs more details along the spires to make it look... real.
The cruiser might be sexy. Lets see some more angles.
-
Styxx, could you hook me up with a cool Templar logo? Pretty please?
And the logo, reverse the colors? Green triangle and blue circles?
-
Okay, here are a couple more views from the cruiser (far, far from complete...):

And here's a quick update on Neo-Atlantis... Not much added, but... :p

Outch. I live in Estonia. Half of the year there is 20-30 degrees and half of the year you can sing "oh christmas tree" Amazing place isn't it? :D
-
And then there's the 6 months of rain, and genrally bad weather
"In this country, there's three months of autumn, and 9 months of bad weather" - something a fellow hiiumaalian used to say. :)
-
Heh, it's like having the raining season and the flood season. :D
-
I did a lot about Brazil in geography.

dunno, kazaa, buying dvd or whatever on the net? Anyway, you HAVE to watch Nadia ( the last Disney, Atlantis, is a shameless ripoff of that series, btw, they even used plan per plan copy, the damn bastards, and they won't even aknowledge having seen it :doubt: )

Will you be able to see the greatness that is AOTC?
-
Pah. At least your unpleasant weather patterns don't force you to stay up till all hours of the morning because of the (very loud)noise of hooting rednecks gunning their pickup trucks and throwing beer bottles into your yard. Don't complain 'till you've seen South North America.:p

I don't hoot....I "hollah"

Admitting or sugesting you are a redneck is not a positive thing.

Yea right....I live in suburbia, I'm like anti-redneck

Even suburbia ain't non-heeeock in the rural South, boah!
But we don't hollah out here. Maybe you're to the West. We don't hoot, either- I don't know what they call it, I don't think it has a name in Yokel out here.

Yes. Sexy. when you're my age, you come to understand that 'sexy' doesn't have anything to do with girlfriends.
An Audi TT is a sexy car. A Shaarlin is a sexy capship. A Medusa is a sexy bomber. Nicole Kidman, Liv Tyler, Christina Ricci and Nigella Lawson are sexy women (hey, sometimes it DOES have something to do with girlfriends!).
If that NeoAtlantean cruiser were broader from port to starboard, it'd be a sexy cap.
Yeah, I need a girlfriend, but my wife won't let me have the cute ones. ;)

So get her a girlfriend, too.

On-topic is a myth. There's "interested in what I have to say" and "interested in what you have to say". Same everywhere online nowadays- forums have reached their heat deaths.
And on that note...
DEATH TO THE CRUMPIES!!!

I try to understand this, but a Medusa??? . And I don't even know who Nigella Lawson is.

really... I never thought it so... it's been a while (let's say 5-6 years) since I saw Nadia though... :p
anyway, back to the topic... the cruiser looks really good, but sexy.... I dunno... maybe :D
-
the ship looks cool, but I suspect it was... an accident, and didn't take long to do? :D
edit: in fact, maybe not. Anyway, it has a cool anime feel to it ( see that thread in the FS2 modding forum :p )

Whats wrong with accidents?

And Barbeque! Don't forget that! :D
Oh, and is that an orbital ladder in the middle of Neo-Atlantis? Looks like one.
-
BTW, I like the landing pad thingys. They look... sexy...:rolleyes: no!! They give the city a bit of a coruscantish look.

Yes. The Medusa and the Mara are the sexiest ships in the games, with the Medusa edging out the Mara. Unlike most of the ships, they look deadly.

I agree for the medusa, but the mara? looks like a crushed bug... the manticore looks deadly, ok, but the mara just looks... dead :D

Accident? Accident?!? I don't model through accidents, kid! It was all carefully planned! :D
And Shrike, I though about putting an orbital elevator there, but I'm not completely sure yet...
-
Well, what else is that mile-high tower going to be? It's rather oversized for any other purpose.....

So... a huge overpopulation won't do huh?:)
-
Dude, it's a floating island..... A giant tower like that is an invitation to have it knocked over by a big storm. ;)
If it was really for population, it would make more sense to construct a series of linked polygons (probably hexagons) which can move in response to wave action, and on each of the hexagons relatively small buildings can be built. Industrial and support 'buildings' can be mounted on the undersides of these tiles.

The Manticore looks like someone flipped over a cargo lifter. I'll stick with the Mara and the Medusa. ;)
To each his own, yeah?

I thought that idea up when i was younger(probably 9 years ago), then someone on the TV nicked it a few years later. Of course by now i realise that most people would of thought of the idea.

Oh, come on. Echeverry (sp?) started doing that looooong ago. It's the "scorpion kick". He used it to defend too... :D

Naaaaaaaa.......... cos I first did it by accident, trying to do a handstand ;7
Besides which...it's Echeverry. who give s a f*** about Bolivia?
They're almost as bad as Scotland.....
Anyway, the only proper 'Scorpion kick' was Rene by Higuita, against England about 6 or 7 years ago...Anderton (or Redknapps) shot, I think, although it was offside anyway.
Don't get me started on footie..... unlss you want a 100 page long thread. :D

Nah... I don't know that much anyway. :D

Bah, there are some things still unexplained from the days before that final... :p
Besides, back on topic: update to the model coming soon. :)

Here: the Neo Atlantis model a bit updated (still a WIP, though):

Interesting, but I think that city needs some new textures. Why don't you make some?
-
They are there, can't you see? It has four different textures. :D

OT: I don't follow our national Football league, but I must say that when International games start I like to watch the matches where our team plays. Especially now that it has improved quite a lot.

Actually, mostly internal matters. Lots of people around here have... doubts... about some players in that game.
But this year we will have... revenge!
(ah, my team just got into the next phase of the south-american championship, by beating an argentinian team by 4 to 0. :ha: )
And getting back on topic again... bit of an update.

Glad you like it, I'm still working on it... :)
-
actually, it looks like one of the nephilim fighters of WC:P, crossed with a "boss"ship of a very old game which I forgot the name, a shoot'em up they made after Microcosm ( Scavenger4 I think, but I'm not sure)
-
I admit that looking at it now it kinda ressembles that fighter... But I never played the other game you mentioned.

neither did I( this kind of games is not my thing), but I remember this ship, it was looking weird but good ( a kind of metalic nautilus)
