Hardly a major criticism, but I've noticed that you flattened out the bottom, rather than retaining the anhedral on the underside.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I hardly did anything to the tail or bottom yesterday. I guess I'll get on that now.

You're fast, that's already looking a lot better.

Again, take your time, we'll be here... lurking :D

Looks like now it's time to point out small details ^^


Here are more:

I  the top view your engine pods don't vary in "broad'th" over much of their length. The retail engines steadily get slimmer over most of their length.

I think the general shape of the cockpit "bulb" is about right, but it's a bit too big. (almost twice as big as on the retail model actually)

mmh. I find some of the hull details a tad gratuitous. I always thought of the Artemis as being sleek and smooth, and the greebles kind of interrupt the streamlined design of the ship. Especially the greebles on the top and underbelly...

Otherwise, great work. :yes:

I gotta ask, since I don't see anyone else who has: why did you chose to place the guns in what would seem to be the obvious spot for the bombs to come out of? I would have figured guns external addon, bombs in main hull, rather than looking the other way around. It's a bomber after all, it would have been designed around the secondary bays first and primaries second, and this just doesn't give that impression.

Because that is where the fire points are. I was a bit surprised too, but I'm not going to argue with the .pof

This is awesomesauce.
[16:57] <CommanderDJ> What prompted the decision to split WiH into acts?
[16:58] <battuta> it was long, we wanted to release something
[16:58] <battuta> it felt good to have a target to hit
[17:00] <RangerKarl> not sure if talking about strike mission, or jerking off
[17:00] <CommanderDJ> WUT
[17:00] <CommanderDJ> hahahahaha
[17:00] <battuta> hahahaha
[17:00] <RangerKarl> same thing really, if you think about it

Yeah. If you look at the texture, there are a pair of triangular holes in the pods where the firepoints are also assigned. Odd that a terran ship uses triangular holes like that though. Seems Shivan to me (but supports the idea that the Ursa's guns should be triangular and not round)

I've found that it's actually really easy to generate normal maps based on high poly models, so I'm smoothing and adding as much tiny detail as I can to create an awesome normal map. Not much to show in pictures.

Testing out my normal maps, and my minimal, terrible texturing.
That pilot must have such a good view... it's awesome.

I'm really going to need some texture artists.

It looks great except for the random greebling on the top (and I suspect the same on the bottom though it's not on the screenshot) which looks weirdly out of place.

I like most of it but the cockpit. Having a window below wouldn't be bad, except when it doesn't serve a purpose.
