WOW!! Love it... yet another ship with some DJ inspiration ;)

Looks great!

Excellent!

Although, I hope this means that you have not scrapped the other ship you were working on. That was a great ship aswell.

Thanks all for the comments

Don't worry, the Elysion will come, I only have to finish the textures, the lightmapping and then the hole rest to get this ship into game, but be sure, I will do all what I can to get it ingame

Beautiful looking ship! This thing looks mean!

Something about the design gives it a, "don't even think about messing with me" look.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #44 on:** January 14, 2008, 04:52:08 PM »

I'm definitely feeling this.

It needs a bit of smoothing here and there, but all in all, it's nice work. way to go.

Here are a few suggestions I have that i think would really push this design to the next level.

no need to follow them, really, just a few ideas because I like the design. Take it as a compliment, not a criticism.

Thanks DJ for the suggestions, I will definatly have a look on these

Something diffrent I have forgot in the last post: My maximum goal for this ship is 12k,
currently it stands on 9,7k polies

cpthooker · « **Reply #46 on:** January 14, 2008, 05:21:58 PM »

I agree on the suggestions, but as DJ stated just suggestions ;)

I really like the look of this ship, I hope to see her blowing up cardies and Jem'Hada

Little update:

I have done a bit more on this ship. I have tryed to implement some of DJ's suggestions and some of my own ideas.
The ship is nearly finished, except for some smoothing work and some other stuff, but these shouldn't change the
polygon count to much. The polygon count stand on 11,8k, maybe I am able to reduce it a bit.

C&C are very welcome

Seriously rengers, this is an amazing design. You've done a tremendous job on this mesh. In fact, I'm pretty certain that this is in my top 5 favorite non-canon designs. I just love the curves combined with the mechanical look. Honestly, I can't wait to see textures on this.

I have only one suggestion. Maybe lengthen the landing pad at the rear about 25-50%.

I love the front view.

intrepid90 · « **Reply #50 on:** January 26, 2008, 12:13:50 PM »

@dj: even longer?
@rengers: amazing. this is a really cool design and done with High Quality! IMO 11,8k isnt too high..

HOLY CR*P RENGERS!!!!!
This has turned out AMAZING!
I cr*p you not!
I am SO insanely impressed!
AMAZING work for such a low poly count! Absolutely amazing!

I'd drown you in a pool of cookies, but it hardly seems fair. I give you one cookie. Let it symbolize the thousands I would LIKE to give you.

This is definitely on my top three favorite mods... I would LOVE to rant and rave, but I think I'd get yelled at.

Thats a fine looking ship you have there rengers, you definitely have the gift of ship modelling!!

My god that is one heck of a ship you've got there, I can't wait to see the finished product.

yanlou · « **Reply #54 on:** January 26, 2008, 01:34:21 PM »

this is how the achilles should have been, have a nice cookie

Dawg81 · « **Reply #55 on:** January 26, 2008, 03:43:32 PM »

WOW!!! U have outdone yourself Rengers though i do agree with Curtis the landing pad size needs to be increased

Asylum · « **Reply #56 on:** January 26, 2008, 04:33:36 PM »

great modelling work

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #57 on:** January 26, 2008, 06:01:43 PM »

it might be long enough, but perhaps more narrow at the end. It looks good as is, I'm just making a suggestion for something that might be worth trying.

mayhemuk · « **Reply #58 on:** January 26, 2008, 08:30:39 PM »

Wow that is one serious cool looking ship, amazing work.

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #59 on:** January 26, 2008, 09:43:35 PM »

*whistles* Wow. At first it looks kinda bulky, but the I get a better look at it and I see how sleek and beautiful she is. Well met, rengers. Well met indeed.
