Title: My Best Model !
Post by: Fozzy on May 26, 2002, 08:44:07 am
hello people, this is my newest model when its finished it will be a bit biger than the deimos and have about 20 guns including a deep-purple beam and a long range cannon of some sort. It has no name yet i have to reaserch some greek or egiption mythology first, or i can just call it "A crusader class corvette".

do you think i should make a hanger in the back between the side mounted engenes.

my insparation for this was:
The vasudan gas miner from FS,
One of Venoms ships the one with the long neck and weard head
The Apock
and that hospitle ship from FS

Not bad at all, but I would make the front of the engines a bit brighter...

Cool design. :cool:
I would make it a flagship though.
The long extension at the bottom could serve as a hangar IMO. :nod:

That ship is refreshingly different.  I like it.  Are you planning to release it anytime soon?

Well I am working on my website at the moment, and campaign structure, after that i will make a request to be hosted or at least a link to my site. After that staff openings will come avalable.

My Campaign is called the "the far-gate project", or "gate" for short. Basicly the terrans have uncovered thecnological plans for a new anchent gate. A gate that can manipulate subspace wormholes, so you can travel from the new gate to any through any other gate in our galexy and back again. My story line will be on finding out what the shivans dont want us to see behind the new capella nebular.

I havent even started on the gate model yet because its got to be so good and original, i just havent got the skills yet :rolleyes: :(

Far-gate?

Hi Carter.
Oh hi Areon!

hummm........

(farscape - stargate ??!??!!!)

put em together and what do you get - the basic storyline of this guys campaign!

Which wouldn't be too bad...

seriously
What are your aims in a modding point of view?

oh and I like the style of the current site

just one more question... whos gonna make Starscape?

Post by: Fozzy on May 30, 2002, 12:13:16 pm
well the statgate theory is right in the sense they "dial" a gate and travel through it. i think stargate is cool :nod:, but other than the gate thing they have nothing in common. Even though areon sun is hot it has no fargate infulance, unless I finish this model. :rolleyes:  

http://www26.brinkster.com/fargate/pictures/raptor.html

The name "Far-Gate" comes from what it does (transports people "far" away) :D

My other models are going to be big pyramids and big organic looking ships which have the ability to "mesonburst" to destinations. :doh::rolleyes: :ha:

Could be funny!

Fozzy, I'm pretty new to this and since you're awesome at it, I was wondering if you could e-mail me ([email protected]) anything to help me with modeling. Tips, documents/texts, programs... Anything would be appreciated! :confused:

Cool Ship!!!

Did you also do that super terran Juggernaught? I noticed that the engines on that one are the same dark shade...'

PS if you did can I get the version that is turrented correctly? None of the weapon points work for me. I turned it into a gigantic colony ship for civillians... Try protecting a ship that huge!



P.S. Chriton was first used for the big silver robot on Buck Roger's last season  on board that ship looking like the 2001 discovery.. Weren't they on some sort of 'Star Trek'???

I personally think the neck is a bit vunnrable. Technically a beam to lop the ship in half, which would not help the survivabilitly of the ship. I say technically 'cos beams in FS2 don't make holes in other ships.

Other than that, I like it.

Sorry...its my pet peeve :D  There's no such thing as 'turrented'.  Its 'turreted'.
