A Project/WIP: Futuristic Terran Battleship
on: November 23, 2003, 01:51:16 pm
Title says it all, I'm modelling a Futuristic Battleship.

It doesn't have a name, but I'll leave that up for you guys to decide.



Front View, Looking into the hanger (lens flares are running lights)

The Bridge (I know it looks small, but that gives you a sense of scale, I'm also not moving the turret near the bridge :p)
http://cor_renders.danmattia.net/Renders/Terran_Battleship_WIP3.jpg

A row of AA Guns (Individual models, just wait till I get them firing :D)
http://cor_renders.danmattia.net/Renders/Terran_Battleship_WIP4.jpg

One of Two Secondary Turrets (Smaller, but just as detailed)
http://cor_renders.danmattia.net/Renders/Terran_Battleship_WIP5.jpg

A Primary Turret (Like the ones on our modern Battleships, but alot bigger, and meaner)
http://cor_renders.danmattia.net/Renders/Terran_Battleship_WIP6.jpg

A Beam Cannon, or Rail Gun ( The blue rings are magnetic accellerators, so I guess it is a Rail Gun :)
http://cor_renders.danmattia.net/Renders/Terran_Battleship_WIP7.jpg

Now, keep in mind that this is a Work In Progress, and I'll be working on it for a while, till I'm satisfied with the results. (More details, more greebles, more everything!)

Questions? Comments? Ideas?

I'm gonna keep on adding detail till I think I've covered everything in some kind of detail.

It'll take time, but I'll get it done.

And whats..."Chamfering"...?

From what I gather it's a fancy way of saying 'smooth the edges'.

I'm not up on all the 3D terminology so I could be wrong. Infact I think 'greeble' is the only term I know. But anyway, smooth the edges.

Intrepid...Hmmm...I like the sound of that!

As for the rounding...can't seem to do that...don't know how...yet...give me a few days to play around with the model some more and I might figure out how to smooth out the side.

anymore comments?

Not bad, really scary looking, except. . .

Well, the coverage of the main guns is good, great in many cases, but there's a glaring lack of coverage in the engine area.  The big guns underneath and forward can't get around that giant tower, and the guns on top don't angle forward enough.  I suppose smaller guns (which is there) could do some of the work, but if another similarily armed ship got into that blindspot and pounded. . .

BOOM.

Armageddon is a good name for this ship, BTW.

I'm taking all the suggestions into consideration.

And I've already named it.



Thanks goes to an0n for the name list.

I'll add more guns and detail this week, and next, and the week after that, almost christmas holidays, so I'll have plenty of time to finish it then.

I'm gonna work on the detail for a bit tonight, I'll post some renders before I head up to bed.

Thanks for the feed back!
