/me enters the room (thread)

heyho! my ship's nearing completion! it's called requin ii (french for shark) and is an atmosphere/space hybrid craft (don't ask how it's reentering, that would be considered rude). i hope ku posts it as soon as he can (after i sent it to im, of course).

and there's a second one in the pipeline.

oh and: i'm designing these ships in freehand, which is a real bitch to use (especially if you're inexperienced at it and don't know about layers...)

Requin added at

http://genin.org

Check it! :D

Say, shouldn`t we post a new thread... or rename it (if that is possible) to something like ¨user ship designs¨ or something? This thread contains a bit more than Arolte's warthog design now...

I'd just like to say that IMO it's always better to draw something freehand before rendering it in a vector program.

Asp

and what exactly makes you think i don't do that?
if proof be required, i can search for the sketches and plans that originally lead to the requin 1 and 2.

/me pokes Ku: "did you intentionally leave out the 2nd page of the pdf?"

anyways, Requin I is in the making (the one i sent is the Requin II).

Asp: I can't draw freehand. At all. So in my case, it's not.

Everyone Else: I'll make something else after District auditions

Nice arolte. by Inventer i assume you mean Autodesk inventor?

Added Scuba's mining ships, and a render of a Neutral Territories mining expedition.

To see a 3d image of my Warthog, now textured.

I slapped the textures on and didn't spend too much time on this. If I really worked on it it could be a lot cooler.

I could texture the ship, but that'd be too much work for me.

Skyfox: Sweet design I'v been waiting for a Pyro-GX style ship in Vendetta

rouguelazer: You have resurected the space superiority fighter from Freespace (what was that thing called?) now go forth and bring me a photon beam cannon

You know you've played too many space combat games when every ship looks like you've seen it before

Good, I have started modeling a ship :) I will send you some pics as soon as it is done. (the ship will be serco, it will be slow and it will not be very streamlined....)

Daon must have x-ray vision, 'cause Skyfox's url kinda sorta doesn't work. Or maybe he's just lying and he wants to humor Skyfox. Teehee...

Hmm... weird. Maybe you have to be registered with renderosity in order to see the image???

Ahh yes, you have to be registered to see it. Hmm, i'll get around to uploading it to a special place... sometime tomorow...

*Me sees Skyfox design
*Me compares it with the 'quality' of his design...
*Me runs away in shame

Wow, it went a lot quicker than I expected :) - http://sheean.reallyrules.com/vendetta/ - there you go, the url.

I will also make other nation's ¨busses¨, but I think that will be a lot harder... all the stream lining, fancy gadgets and stuff... thanks for your comments ¨ctishman¨ I'm mostly playing for Itani as ¨newbie¨, so you can probably skip the hall-of-heroes crap.

*updated: added a neutral bus

I quote from St. 2, paragraph 3:

Her spear was of the strongest steel
no useless jewels marred its thrust
she called us with it to her heel
and placed in us her utmost trust.


Streamlining in space is useless, and a waste of our nation's resources. You act rightly in your design goals. May your clan join you in the hall of heroes for this patriotic act.

Nonetheless, you have the soul of a Serco, and are welcome to join us whenever Serco calls to you.

Yes, yes. Serco does indeed speak through your lips and strike through your sword! Do not resist your calling!

Wow, SkyFox, that looks nice. Really nice. I was expecting another smattering of polygons, but that was quality. My only problem with the current hog design though lies in the rear thrusters. They just look wierd the way they are.
