Title: Unborn Legacy's Zod dump
Post by: MatthTheGeek on May 01, 2020, 08:39:09 am
Our good friend Nyctaeus has dropped for us on discord a few nice kitbashed zod assets, which were originally planned for use in his Unborn Legacy (https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=95818.0) project.

I've already wikified them, so without further ado, here goes (DL included on the wiki pages, most of them are in a single 7z):

(https://wiki.hard-light.net/images/thumb/6/6b/PVFSeshat_Nyx.jpg/751px-PVFSeshat_Nyx.jpg)
A remodel/reskin of the PVF Seshat (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVF_Seshat).

PVF Hotep (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVF_Hotep): 2-2 primaries, 2 secondary banks.

(https://wiki.hard-light.net/images/thumb/c/c4/PVFKa.jpg/705px-PVFKa.jpg)
PVF Ka (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVF_Ka): 4-2 primaries, 2 secondary banks

(https://wiki.hard-light.net/images/thumb/0/07/PVBChensit.jpg/709px-PVBChensit.jpg)
PVB Chensit (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVB_Chensit): A single 2-gun primary bank, 3 secondary banks, 1 turret.

(https://wiki.hard-light.net/images/thumb/9/91/PCvSobek.jpg/800px-PCvSobek.jpg)
A PVN reskin based on Oddgrim's Sobek model. (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVCv_Sobek)

(https://wiki.hard-light.net/images/thumb/7/7d/PVCvPnepheros.jpg/779px-PVCvPnepheros.jpg)
PVCv Pnepheros (https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/PVCv_Pnepheros) : 'bout 70% as long as a Sobek, 27 turrets.

Nyx makes such cool things and doesn't even bother to release it himself :D

Hotep's probably my favorite of the set, but I dig how clearly Vasudan they all look in general. Well done.

I like that blue-highlighted Sobek, looks very nice. The Pnepheros looks really good too.

The Pnepheros is also in NuINF, so it's not necessary limited to PVN.

Lol yeah this is a modding community. It's all fair game. I took a fighter and resized it to be a transport (TF Proton). I took a cruiser and made it a transport (GTC Cretheus). These models don't have to be explicitly what they say they are.

If you knew what things I already did... it'd make Bryan blush...

Well, no, not arrested. No promises on any other possible consequences, though. :p

*hastily bookmarks this topic*

I like the upgrade to the Seshat been looking at that for an Apollo-equivalent for a while ... and for the Pnepheros I might have a role too - it would have to loose 60-70 percent of its turrets first...

EDIT: ... and its 75 percent of its turrets :D

Great, great models! They fill a gap that was actually meant to be filled long ago. Thanks a lot for this release!  ;7

I wasn't able to force myself to do "more important stuff" and also I wasn't able to convince Mobius to use one of newer vasudan cruisers. This man is really stubborn :P... So I produced this for fun.

It's exactly what you see. GalEmp's PVC/GVC Mekhet flavoured with recolored Ma'at textures by Oddgrim. Pretty much the same workflow as the other ships in this thread. Lowcost modelling done in 2,5 hours... With decent, but acceptable outcome. Shall fit to your PVN fleet well.

Also special thanks for Asteroth, for making debris for this thing.

Sweet  :) :yes: Now we need to see the 'PVB Bubba Hotep'  :lol:

Shame on me for not noticing this public update on the Mekhet before (despite using it, as well as pretty much all of the other ships featured in this thread). The older Mekhet model was not aging well, and Nyctaeus' upgrade is truly a remarkable one.  :yes:

Well THAT is an unexpected development. :yes:

You actually contributed a lot to this pack :P. Except Mekhet that's obviously your design, the Chensit still bears your polygons under carved details :]
