I need somebody to properly texture this ship.
The model can be found here
here's a pic.

Now that's an interesting design Hades. what race does it belong to?

[Galemp]

*chants* ANcients ANcients ANcients

[Solatar]

It started out as Terran, but I kind of thought it looked a little Vasudan.

GE, you're right, I think it should be Ancient.

[Solatar]

Here's a cruddy Ancients skinned one.

I wanted it to look organic, so the back fin is kind of warped.

Yeuch. Get it UV mapped.

I'll see if I can get somebody to do it.

How many polys?
[/color]

[Galemp]

100 exactly, but no thrusters, LODs, or debris...

[Katalyan]

i like the model.  maybe a bit plain and low poly, but with thrusters, etc. i'm sure it will look better.  give it some thrusters, weapons, etc. and re post it, so we can have a look at the finished product

Actually there is something I just like about that hull design even though it is low poly. I'm sure with a little bit of experiementation you could improve it but I think it looks rather good.

I took a look at the mesh, what modelling program did you use? The tail section is warped and the engines are pretty different in shape, there's also a lot of unnecessary polys. I'm not berating you I just think you should keep working on the mesh.

I've fixed the tail warp.


I did the model in Blender.

I still build most of my models in Rhino it's exceptionally user friendly and very very accurate.

If you like blender try GMax, using the md3 (Quake 3) exporter and a converter (blender might actually work) you have a powerful freeware modeller with all of the modelling tools of 3DSmax.

[Solatar]

Is it free? I don't have money to spend on 3d modeling tools.

[HotSnoJ]

No no Blender is the way to go.

Hades if you use the subsuf function you might be able to detect edges and faces that aren't suppose to be in a model.

Its not quite the same...
Its more like 3ds r.3 not MAX but plain old 3ds...

I've used both max 3.1 and GMax, I thought they were pretty similar in most respects as far as modelling is concerned. *shrugs*
