thanks sokol.

bit of an update - just reshaping the back and trying to get it all to work - spaceships are harder than i thought. :(

started making landing gear, but i'm not sure about them.

I certainly like your modeling!! And the ship is looking very good. Are you having fun with it thought? ;-)

arran 29-05-2009 04:47 PM

ha ha - off and on... ;)

It really would have been cool to have you start this months ago just to see where you would have taken this.

its looking so cool.

Edit - was just going thought the 100 greatest video games and I came across this pic - hmmmmm

If you create a shape and you start to search, sooner or later you find something that looks close.

Did you know that the amount of images that can be shown in a computer monitor is finite? you just multiply all the posible values for the pixels and you get an enormous but finite number.This number includes all the possible pictures shown, all the possibles pages written, etc..

ha ha - thanks for the pic tweet. :) i was thinking it maybe looked a bit like a snowspeeder - definitely had that in mind - and maybe a couple of wipeout ships... don't think i've played that game tho - looks cool.

i'm definitely with taquion on this one - originality is a myth. :)

oldhippie_tom 30-05-2009 09:35 PM

Arran, sorry but the first time I saw it I thought of the old VW Bugs. HaHa!! But I mean that in good fun, I think you know that!! You have done a super job!!

Defiantly looking cool Arran :)
And that pic is from Homeworld 2. It is defiantly worth getting, one of my favorite games. Haven't played it in ages...
Hope you are finished in time!

Tell me about it - I got someone on face book saying my ship looks like his - cheeky bugger.

Excellent looking model for such a short time Arran, I like the thruster type bits at the back, all round very good!

arran 01-06-2009 06:21 PM

thanks mate - i might keep working on this - i have a few ideas for textures. :)

oldhippie_tom 01-06-2009 06:45 PM

Arron, I like what you have done in the time you had. Certainly like your modeling style, I always have. I really would have enjoyed seeing it if you had 2 months, it would be killer I know!!!

Mayaniac 01-06-2009 06:55 PM

Yeah, nice model man! Very clean as usual.... would have been better if you had it an an environment.... even a docking port would have been cool.

It still rocks either way!

Good luck! :beer:
