Bloody hell, what's that?



You really should post more often, Raven. You only seem to pop up once in a while, but when you do you bring something incredible like that...

What is it, and what's it for? Do you have a campaign or other project in progress?

LOL!! You must be from around here for a year or so!

I had a project featuring a lot of models, but had to step away from it because no one could texture my ships decently, and I had/have some real life "time eaters"... the project so far is on stand by until I learn to texture decently and I have some more time on my hands

This baby was supposed to be a Terran/Vasudan Destroyer for the GTVA...

If you want to see some more stuff, search the modding forums for my old threads and you'll see tons of ships

Glad my stuff isn't yet outdated

The GTD Charlatan (what´s with the strange name, btw) is beautifull, with only one snag. Those crate like structures in the bow are ugly and don´t fit the rest of the ship. It´s like it grew a cancerous appendix.

@Carl

I finally figured out what your style reminded me of. It´s Nexus the Jupiter Incident, all the way. Those ships are very "Stilletto" styled, wich is a very good thing btw.


There are still lots of people who haven´t posted yet. What gives? Get crackin´!!

There are storyline reasons for those......... and Charlatan is the ship name, not the class name.

85,597 polygons.

Only 85k polys? I know a chap who models stuff with upwards of...
...
...
half a million polys! (thats 500,000+)

Needless to say, those things cause my PC to charge along like an arthretic snail...

I can also create a model with serveral million polygons... a sphere.

You cannot compare models by the numer of polies...

[Singh]

IIRC, the Triest (the earlier version) was around 500k polies as well. So Dabrain is right, comparing polies is nothing.

Remember; its never the size or how much...its what you put in it or do with it that counts

That's nice...

[brugger]

very nice, there aren't a lot of good science/awacs ships out there

[aldo_14]

Something oddly familiar about it for some reason, though.

[KappaWing]

Awesome! Looks like a Faustus on steroids.

indeed, that shivan superjug i posted 4671 polies(untriangulated). it will have more once its interior is finished. the pf chimera (2nd model i put up) has 5920 polies (untriangulated), mainly cause of the interior and all the animated subobjects. the highest poly model i have is the pf rumrunner (not shown), with 7255 plies (untriangulated) is my highest poly ship, but most of its detail is in its turrets, which im still not happy with. the rumrunner is also an example of how good texturing can save an otherwise crappy looking model.

One of my first thoughts was that it looked like something you might have made, actually...

Maybe, but he models in every tiny pipe, dent, and slot.  Plus filleting almost everything.

This link should take you to a gallery of pics of his models.

He mainly does orginal BSG, but there's some other stuff too.

You people like using JK2 and JKA textures.
It looks like it is only the SWC who have the 'they will sue us for using their work' mania.

[TopAce]

I thought my best model was the Antwerpen-class gunship, but I was mistaken. I realized I had a better model.
