WIP - Heavy Cruiser / Carrier
It's a Heavy Cruiser slash Carrier because I didn't decide which one it'll be yet. Some of the detail is manually modeled, some is auto-greebled. Just started on it, I plan to add a lot more detail to it.

from what I can see it looks cool, but could you make the renders just a little bit lighter?
Arrr. I'm a pirate.

Autogreebling is weak, but your model is not. Good job.

I'm working on it from the bottom up - the autogreeble is just to fill in the voids while I work on the real detail. :)

Darkness is good for hiding things.  Your render is dark.

Think about that....... ;)

It doesn't look dark on my comp. Try increasing the brightness setting, I'll post a brighter screen when I get back online in a few minutes.

Styxx, I have my contrast and brightness maxed out on a Viewsonic monitor. The only way I can see any detail on your renders is by upping the gamma to 1.3.

Those turrets are pretty sweet, by the way. :)

Styxx, that thing is bad as hell. I mean TOP-NOTCH. Good job.

Btw, is that an airlock by the bridge?

Is that REALLY a good idea?

Well, thanks! :D

Hmm... yes?

Hmm... nope?


I just didn't know what to put in there. Besides, I don't think that thing will be the bridge in the end - I like to have the bridge buried deep inside the ship, usually. That tower will probably be a secondary docking ring with an observation deck. Also, those docking ports should be smaller - they're supposed to be standard shuttle airlocks, about the height of a person - they're much larger than that right now. I'll fix it when I get back to work on it tomorrow.

Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide target selection !

Forgot to reply when I took a gander at this the other day. :p

The nose shape is reminisceint (sp?) of the Galactica in Battlestar Galactica.... it'd be a cool ship to have as an escort cruiser in a BG MOD. :nod:

....oh yeah, I like it! ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Oh wow.... that's phat... I really, really like that design. I'd say heavy cruiser, personally. Maybe command ship. :):yes:
