Finished adding turrets. I thought, I'd try to make textures for it. That's the "hold up".

I just love making textures. :rolleyes:

There shall be revisions coming sooner or later for mine, and FYI that piccie I posted earlier is a side view.  I generally make a starboard profile, then start filling in details.

On the subjetc of textures....anyone want these?

I've decide to uv map the ship in places, rather than use tiles.  The amount of detail makes it extremely tough to match the 'seams' otherwise, in the majority case.

i know they're jpegs, but the compression is at minimum, so i hope there's no real loss in detail.  Apologies for the size.





NB:  Probably need work to roughen them up still, also scratch, etc marks.  It's surprisingly tough to design generic textures that actually work and UV properly - that's why I'm changing to templates. I have olderbackups in photoshop format if anyone wants them.

No reason to take 'em down.

Although i could have sworn those lights were meant to have more 'glare blur' around them..............NB - should add that they're all suppossed to tile fine- even the second one.

that second one looks great, do you have a version of the third one without the lights?

Think so.  Needs mirrored, though.  Gimme a sec.

The glares need a lot of work,regardless... i kinda bodged it, just copied the lights onto a lower layer and blurred it.  Should have done each one with the airbrush seperately, but I was tired.

Meh.

Why not just add a layer glow effect to the lights layer?

Also, randomness is good; what're the chances that all those rooms would have their lights on at the same time? ;)

"...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

Er...didn't think of it?

Said I didn't put much effort into the lights, anyways.
