The place where you can put the random weapons and ships you make when you're bored without having to start a new thread.  Please put WEAPON or SHIP  above your post so we can distinguish between usefull posts and spam.

SHIP
Tech Description:
The GTDr Manhatan unmanned combat drone is an upgrade of the old Amazon drone. It is used for wepons testing and can be remotely controlled by a pilot or mainframe. To keep the units cheep and expendable, they have no AI of thier own and no sheilds or subspace drive. They do, however, have afterburners and considerably more armor than the Amazon.
This is a retexture of the Amazon, I forgot to take a screenshot and am currently at the library so I can't take one now.  Either the first to download can post something or I will add a screenie later.

EDIT:  Oh come on people, it can't be that bad, especially fo my first reskin/regun.  And I know someone out there must have some stuff they might want to share.

    People don't make finished mods every day dude. Well, except maybe Scoobydoo. But how many ship releases have you seen in this forum lately? not very many.
    But a screenshot might help to get you some feedback, and you can also try uploading it to uh freespacemods.net or something.

In fact this thread isn't supposed to have an average 20+ posts per day.

One suggestion, though: please don't use rapidshare as host because it doesn't like connections like mine. By "doesn't like" I mean that it's impossible to DL stuff from there.

[Retsof]

Oh, sorry about the RapidShare thing, you know this was a kind of stupid idea anyway... I just figured people would have stuff lying around thier computers that they never bothered to put up.  Also I wanted to show off my first reskin/POF edit.

[Mobius]

You can use FSMods...

Here's a screenshot (from PCS2) for the benefit of those who are curious.
Looks a bit like a police vessel. The one thing that I don't like is those two white lines that look like they've been spraypainted or something on the blue. . . they're a bit out of place.

That's a cockpit, right? It shouldn't be a GTDr...

I like the changes, however

I just started modeling today, But I'm trying to update some modern Fighters to make them flyable in Freespace. My first attempt is based on Russian designs.



This was made in blender after messing around for about 5 hours.

I have no idea how to do UV mapping/Texturing

It's still a drone, that's where all the cameras etc are for remote controll.

Not bad, especially for a firs model.

I like it. The Mig Fulcrum?

Take off every MIG. You know what you doing.

(well, someone had to say it...)

It's not really A MiG in the exact sense, I took the design of the MiG and some elements of the Su-33... I made it from memory as I was too lazy to find images. Tomorrow I'll start adding detail, and figure out how to texture it. Any tips for UV Mapping/texuring?

EDIT: Happy Independence day to all the Americans around here

SHIP

A second Fighter to eventually be added to my hanger, Influenced by the F-16, but purposefully wider fuselage.

This thread sounds like fun. Here's a small corvette I've been playing around with.

That looks like that belongs in Diablo.

Suggestion:

WEAPON and SHIP can be barely noticed when someone checks a long page and wants to do it in a few seconds. What about...

WEAPON and SHIP?

That may underline the importance of certain posts.

What species is that for?

[Stormkeeper]

If that came out of subspace in a nebula infront of me, I wouldn't scream "Dive, dive, dive!" so much as "Jump, jump, jump!"

I had humans in mind while I was working on it. Perhaps the people stuck in the sol system have had some big changes in their society, and their starships reflect those changes.
