Two pics of the main hull. It's a bit less than 6000 polys

I will add a bit more detail to the front part and this part is more than finished :)
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

Ok, some work done on the front part of the main hull.

I just have some doubts about what is shown in the pic below...

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y188/sb38R2/Hecate23.jpg

Notice the part where the main beams are mounted?? What do you think???

  • meh...
It's hard to judge how that will look with the beams.

If one beam is on the raised area and another in the recess yes,
If both beams are in the recessed area i say no.

But that's just my opinion.

I might volenteer for the UV mapping and Texturing stuff, but first i want to finish my own model.


Actualy, on second though they might ook good either-or way...

I agree, start modeling in some of the hull plating, and have it match up with how the textures will be UV mapped.

This ship looks nice and sleek. Which my main complaint about Bobb's HTL Deimos is that its turned a design that is said to be sleek into a box with jagged edges. (especially the bottom)

Basicaly, you are telling me to make the same kind of detail I made in the rear section, right??

That will take a while bit, because I have very few polys to spare now... I'll see if I have anything done by tomorrow :)

Ok, I'm REALLY almost done with it:

Notice the 4 barreled turrets?? those are supposed to be flak guns. Also, I've added some detail to the front section, but not too much (careful with the polys). This is final for what you see (maybe except the beam turrets...).

The polycounts:

main hull (without the "wings"): 6000
main hull with all LODable subobjects on maximum detail (except turrets): 10000
fully LODed and turreted (again maximum detail) 20000

I just have to make the LODs for the 2 barreled turrets, model the debris and model\lod some sort of rotating missile turrets to be placed in the lower section of the main engines... and then it will be ready for UV mapping\texturing :)

Okay, whenever you get the mapping done, I'm definitely getting this Hecate. It looks so totally awesome.

The model is completely finished :)

Tomorrow I'll post pics of all the sub objects (including their lods)

Now I just have to wait for a texture artist/UV mapper :D

OMG it looks great. :eek2:

I'm really impressed..

I'd texture it, but I already got texture job for a HTL model. A very hard job, which will take some time.

Well, if you define "some time" I'm willing to know if I want to wait or not, given what I've seen from you so far :)

There are wing-mounted turrets in the cutscenes that seem to have been dropped ingame...
