A couple more ships on the long production line to go. I need to make clones of myself 

Lets see how many remember this ship?  (albiet modified)


And just for you Colonol Dekker 


Both are still in their infancy.

[Starman01]

That midway clone is really nice. It design looks much more reasonable to me than the original (which was a joke actually. A completly empty ships body just to build in a crane that moves the fighter to the catapult tupe. Blair must have been drunken when he designed that )

[Scooby_Doo]

The launch tubes were way too small. You couldn't even launch a devestator in one of those.  Plus there was that stupid tail. don't know what it was for but it was barely attached to the ship.

Now the body sections have been welded together (plus more fighter storage space  ) and the tail section has been merged with the rest of the tower section and body.  She'll be armed with medium to light anti-capship (mostly for self protection) and lots of tachyon/laser/particle guns (well less than 34 turrets total  LOL)

[Starman01]

Well, just make your weapons more like the ones in WCS, and you know how dangerous they are there. That way 30 turrets should be more than enough.

[Scooby_Doo]

Actually I think their worse or were worse

Since most weapons have dual barrel, twice the damage. I had to lower damage some and use the FOV.  It also makes things more interesting watching shots flying past you.

Edit: Don't forget theres much more area to protect.  Since I base everything on the scale of a fighter, cap ships need to be much much bigger to support them. Hence my 1km+ scaled cruisers/carriers

Hey, what else is on the production line?
I'm working on some code that would be awesome with a Black Lance Dragon.  And no, it's probably not what you think well, depends on who's guessing.  Edward Bradshaw would probably be right.  heeheehee!
[and, of course, trout me if a Dragon has already been released somewhere... ]

[Colonol Dekker]

Who doesnt remember the Scimitar from WC1/secret missions.............

PHEAR MY KNOWLEDGE !!

Oooh giant space trousers (midway) remake looks great,  can you do one in Jungle camo please?

BTW dragon wise are wwe talking fusion cannon? cos fighter animations and stealth are already working so i assumed........

[Fineus]

Bugger what you people say, the Midway was a fantastic looking capital ship. The way it hung in space all vast and menacing was just damn cool.

[Colonol Dekker]

I like the giant space trousers too, But im a Cat-Killer at heart, its all about the TCS Concordia, or St Helens..........

[Getter Robo G]

Hey Thunder, do you mean it Hung Well, or that it was Well Hung? 

Why do I suddenly have the image of William Hung singing Maneater in my head?
(get the FRAK out!)

[Colonol Dekker]

The nelly fertado song............

Aiee, now its in my head.......  <mercy killing

[Getter Robo G]

No the ancient weapon of DOOM (TM), Hall & Oats...

"Watch out here she comes, she's a maneater!"

I want to see a FS ship that hangs in space in exactly the way that bricks don't. 

[Colonol Dekker]

Teh GTC Orff does In the first non-training FS1 mission, It hangs in space in the Vasudan cargo depot raid too......

[NGTM-1R]

Who doesnt remember the Scimitar from WC1/secret missions.............

PHEAR MY KNOWLEDGE !!

It's got too many guns for that...Raptor? But the Raptor's wing bracing was curved...

Take note "(albiet modified)" 

It went from a slow sluggish heavly armored medium figheter with 2 mass drivers to a slow slugghish heavly armored heavy fighter with a weapons loadout comperable to the thunderbolt.

[Colonol Dekker]

It's a scimitar withoout the balls on top.......

Raptors here...

It looks so much more like a Scimitar.

[Scooby_Doo]

Guess what this is attached to 

and for those who have seen it before HUSH 

[gevatter Lars]

I think I haven't seen it before but when its a WC ship I would say...something WC2...beginning with W.
If its that ship I would say interesting...maybe the rest of the WC2 bubbles could be WC3ifyed similar to this.
It also looks a little bit more like from the movie..at least the bridge section.

[Scooby_Doo]

The underbelly still is rounded, except theres a modern plasma equivalent of the PTC located there 

I'm finally getting around to working on it. This is as much detailing as I've got right now. Also there is something really goofy with 3dMax about smoothing.  I get really weird black banding on areas.. specially the rounded underside and the front bridge tower.
