What, again, was that modeled+textured with, Harry?
Oct 23, 2005 Harry Seldon link
Modeled with Wings3D, UV Unwrapped in Lightwave 3D's Modeller, textured in Photoshop 7, and rendered in Lightwave's Layout (yeah, Lightwave has 2 'separate' programs for modeling and rendering. They auto-sync contents between the two, but it can be kinda buggy).

Hmm. Somehow, ananzi, I don't think FM will let that post stand...

I don't see the correlation between the front view, side, and top views. They don't seem to correspond to the same ship.

Well, after several weeks of on-and-off sketching, I've finally come up with a design that interests me. It'll be a heck of a task to keep it below 2000 polys though.

You rock Harry Seldon. They've GOTTA take this one.
Inc: Make it so!

[EDIT] I don't think Crip "gets" ananzi's joke... [/EDIT]

would be nice if you didn't zip your jpgs making us download them all to view. At least I had to.

Sooo, here's an idea I had for a 'mined out' asteroid. I haven't textured it yet, or even attempted to unwrap it. Pretty simple idea, I think. Would be a blast to have though. It's about 5000 polys, I think.

Enjoy.

Edit: also been workin' on another ship. Weighs in in the upper 1400s in terms of polys.

nice ship, and you named it after one of my characters! :D

That would be cool if there was a station inside an asteroid

I think there's a post from a dev somewhere (way too tired to search) stating that all the sectors from the old-n-small universe have been transferred to the new-n-huge universe.
If so, where is Sector 10 and The Hidden Base? <dramatic music>
Anyway, that's a kick-ass ship there, Harry!

I homed at s10 many times, I also wonder where it is
Nov 01, 2005 icbm1987 link
Harry... I mean no disrespect... but... why does that ship look like a centurion with more wingy-ness?

I don't know how to say what it is I want to say!!?! so I make up words!!
