Title: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Oceanus on December 19, 2005, 09:38:31 am
Well. I made these a while back. Our friendly neighborhood rguy managed to do some nice texturing. Although more work is needed. I still love them. But some more detail work is needed. I dont doubt rbuys ability. Just the models require more detail on my part a little more time for ryguy.

Good work Ryguy.  ;D

Ryguy did these. I think he did the thing very good. Although its still reminiscent of a imperial fighter.  :D

It's a friggin Tie Defender. :P. Kewl looking, but it's waaaaay too close to use.

The other one is really interesting. I'm not 100% sure on the texture (There are a few points where some additional detial could be had, etc.) But over all I do like it. Once I'm less sleep deprived I'll post better comments, and suggestions on improvements.

Yea i kno...the drone thing looks like a tie defender alot...that was not my original intention, but i was just fooling around   and I kindof just made it...but now looking back it IS a friggin tie defender!!  And, when you can plz tell me what to improve on the detail in my other texturing :P

Ok, here is a revised version of my drone, so it doesnt resemble anything from star wars; please tell me what you think:

I like the new probe. very kewl.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: contingencyplan on December 19, 2005, 08:36:12 pm
Nice.

So do you have any backstory on that probe, or is that somebody else's job? :)

Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 20, 2005, 05:10:39 am
What you mean by backstory?
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: contingencyplan on December 20, 2005, 07:37:39 am
A background story - how the ship was made, who built it (e.g., pirates, League, Terrans, etc.), what its purpose is (shooting things in this case [obviously], but how - interceptor, anti-capitalship, dogfighter, etc.), some battles it has seen. Backstory.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 20, 2005, 10:01:59 am
well, I hadn't really thought of a backstory for it yet : P
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Oceanus on December 20, 2005, 01:19:31 pm
I sort of had one for my ship. Mine was built by the terrans to be used as a radar jammer and a support vessel. Its long days in service are rembered by the few who piloted the ships. Now they are rarely used to jamming and mostly for scouting outer planets and looking for new minerals in the galaxy.

Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 20, 2005, 02:15:11 pm
Sounds good...I'm thinking that these would be drones that are specifically made to assist this ship (made by national_cookie).  Maybe they could be compatible with this ship only, and must be controlled by it.

Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 20, 2005, 06:38:20 pm
Here's another ship I just finished, these are the best thrusters I've ever made.  I will touch up the texture stretch and spikes in the back pretty soon:

I REALLY hate to bust your bubble on the drone, but that looks even more Star Wars.  Say hello to the TIE Phantom.

and now yours

goddangit...ok, I will rework it...yet again lol.

Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 21, 2005, 06:02:47 pm
heres another ship i've come up with, I'm not sure which way to have it though, please tell me which one you think is better  (unless you just plain dont like it):

1)

2)
(http://img392.imageshack.us/img392/1959/55we.png) (http://imageshack.us)


...and here I have some other views of it in way #2...but if you like one better then these are still the same views, with the different texture in the back:

Post by: Morgul on December 21, 2005, 07:20:38 pm
I like #2 better, personally. Very interesting design. Texture does look a bit stretched, however.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 21, 2005, 07:25:05 pm
yea..thats under my touch-ups to do list.

Very nice!  I dig.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 22, 2005, 05:01:36 am
Thanks.  Yea, right now I'm just kindof throwing out designs and seeing if various people like them until national_cookie and I have some more models to work on to be put into the game, or more concept sketches, etc.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Caenus on December 22, 2005, 08:44:47 am
heh, I'll say here what I've said already about concept sketches:

EMAIL ME!!!

I'll crank them out as fast as I can.  How quickly I get them scanned in is a different story.

Ok, lol.  Yeah sorry about that...I posted here befeore I read the other post you did :D.

DUDE! Thats Awesome!!! I love that ship. I can't wait to fly it. lol
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 22, 2005, 01:38:27 pm
Thanks lol...well I don't even know if it will end up in the game yet but who knows :D.

Post by: Infernal on December 22, 2005, 08:24:11 pm
I must say you are improving alot.  These last ones look pro  ;D.  Just the problem with the last one is, to me it looks somewhat like a banshee from halo(I might be wroung).  Can you make a saucer type ship?
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on December 22, 2005, 09:34:12 pm
I will try to, I'll post it up as soon as I'm finished.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on January 20, 2006, 08:55:07 pm
Ok, I tried to destretch the texture while still trying to preserve the alien look of it, tell me what you think:
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Caenus on January 21, 2006, 01:37:07 am
Masterfully done.  I'm impressed.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Morgul on January 21, 2006, 11:26:55 am
I really, really do like that. However, there just isn't enough detail in the texture for my tastes... but the stretching is gone! I can't put my finger on it, but there's something here that isn't working... not sure. I really do like it though.

Caenus needs to get some Archigos Class Frigate sketches done, and scanned in... so I can get you to work modeling those. One that's modeled, I'll put it in the game.

Ok, sounds good.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Caenus on January 21, 2006, 06:53:07 pm
I'll get working on the sketches - but it'll be a while before I get them scanned in.  I'm working on it . . .

Ohh my dude! There is some nice stuff coming along from here... I want to fly one of these babies!

Ok...in addition to my suddenly found free time leading me to create more space station designs for the heck of it...I have decided to do the same thing with ships.  Here are two other designs I've made...one is intended to be a small fighter of some sort and the other is meant to be heavily armored; maybe a frigate or something.

I can only say one thing:

Kickass. Keep it coming.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: ryguy_1617 on February 16, 2006, 07:08:08 pm
Thanks :)... but I will probably try to add some lights to the top of the larger one though, that might make it look better...dunno.  I'll try it later on and post.
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Caenus on February 17, 2006, 12:42:58 am
Must . . . get . . . sketches . . . done . . .

Damn this infernal college!

Lol.  :D  Well, either way, whenever you have time.

Post by: ryguy_1617 on April 01, 2006, 01:46:52 pm
this is a ship I just did....tell me what ya think:
Title: Re: New 3D Ships. Check'em out.
Post by: Morgul on April 01, 2006, 03:59:49 pm
Ok, THAT ship right there we need to make a seperate thread about, and figure out it's specs, and which race it is. I'm thinking NorAellian.... oh, man, that's wicked hot. Only two things I can think of at all, that is: 1) Engines (they seem too small, or something. not sure.) and 2) need to add a few guns/turrets (if NorAellian, it will all be projectile weapons... aka, like bullets. :-p)
