Title: GTB Inferno
Post by: Woomeister on August 13, 2002, 05:16:14 am

Inferno Class Bomber:

Designed after the destruction of Outpost Riviera to destroy large capital ships such as the Lucifer and Hades, the Inferno class was the largest bomber designed in that era. Due to lack of funds and expense of the craft it was never put into production. With the new threat of the Shivans and the increasing power of their capital ships the design has been upgraded to accomodate the latest weapons and reactors. Though an old design it is capable of taking down any class of Shivan warship.

A bomber that would of appeared in the original FS1 version of the Inferno campign (hence the name) I read some old docs and remembered there would be a bomber like this, so I made it last night.

Mapping isn't too great but it was made in TS5, UV Mapped in Max and then completed to POF stage in 3-4 hours. I'll include a blank template in case you really hate the map :D

I'll release it once it's done (If people want it that is) and if I get enough requests maybe a FS1 version too since it was designed more for that era.

I think it looks pretty good. Might look better with  a slightly darker hull but she's good as she is.

Release a FS1 version.  It's nice, but I agree that it should be darker.  

What is that ship on the back?  looks sort of like an Ursa?

By the way, I like rounded ships.

Well I'll keep it as it is, but if someone really wants it darker it shouldn't take them too long to darken the maps.

That's the Jotun. Put it there for size comparison

If I'd made it rounded it would probably of looked too modern and less bulky.

I like big brick bombers like the Ursa :D

Well it'll be a public release so anyone can use it. The model is finnished, only interface art is needed...

As for the name...well it's just a name ;)

That's the Jotun. You can get it off the Inferno website. That GTB Inferno would look good as a pre-Great war bomber.
