already posted it in another topic, but it;s an update, and i don't want to use someone else's topic for it.



i got rid of the annoying edges at the nose.
hell, i completely redid the nose

anyway, now i have to find something for that really large open area.
and find something for the rest of the frotn, can't all stuff it with antennae.

[Taristin]

Needs _alot_ more detail, and maybe beveled edges, but I realize it's a WIP, and I'd like to see where it's going.

[Jetmech Jr.]

Is it gonna be something like Infernos lindos?

[Havock]

I don't really have a fixed thing in mind.
just just save frequently, add something, save if I like, revert if I don't.

bevelle edges?
you don't mean the smooth quad thingy, aye?
cuz by doing that, it looks like someone smacked a rather LARGE hammer againt it.
multiple times.

anyway, most antennae added, update eta within the hour.
unless lycos starts *****ing again.

*edit*
here's the new front:

Beveled edges, I mean having  it go like this:

Code: [Select]

can i still do that, even when All objects are already "molded" into one object?

[Havock]

tried something with bevelle edges, looking the the "block" at the right end of the nose and the "strip" on the hull.

i am wondering though, the ship itself might be a little to "wide".
or does that only look like that because of the blandness on the hull?

[DragonClaw]

That ship reminds me of Minmatar frigate designs in Eve

[Havock]

some other updates.

[Havock]

N/A

[Taristin]

Looks like it'd make a beter space-city-type istallation.

[Havock]

I was more thinking of an old "command ship".

like a mobile installation: massive fighterbays, but marginal close-range protection.

would be a pre-great war relic i guess.

[Beowulf]

Do not be afraid of bevel...
Bevel is your friend!

[Havock]

hehe, alright.
I am, ast the moment discontinuing the current project for now.
time to hit it more serious this time, i got an idea how a want it now.

[Havock]

update again, whatta ya think?

(ok, so the bow may be slightly too pointy)

[SadisticSid]

Wonderful detail on some bits, but the hull is butt-ugly (and looks more like a maritime vessel than a space one).

[TopAce]

I am saying it again(Shoot the double poster on head):
It is rather a naval AA cruiser than a spaceship.
This is not supposed to be a critic.

[Havock]

yeah, i know, i tried to get rid of the excessive long tip, but it refused to.

i though "drill a hole in it, so that you have a "trench" in which you can put a forawrd-mounted gun" but no, if i did the "object substraction tool" it gives a bolean error or something and deletes sorta the whole model.

that does give it a very "spacey look", but i a whole different meaning.
not really what we are after

So:
can someone help me get rid of the bloody pikenose?

[Unknown Target]

Do something with the front of the ship. Make the whole thing longer, and make the bow come into a large rounded front, not a point.

[Havock]

ok, after the chainsaw and the hammer I got rid of the pikenose, is this better?

(check pics)

btw.
is it overarmed?
I am almsot done with the rear too, overengined it is.

also:
how to add turrets?
