Hi all
Well i thought i'd have a bash at something a bit different not to sure what this is going to be it's between a defence platform, ship yard or star port i'm leaning towards a defence platform but it's not set in stone yet.
anyway here what i've got so far.

Raffs, dude, that thing is looking sexy! Why can't it be all those things? Could be usefull to have that sitting in orbit if there was an emergency close by. Just my opinion. Looking good though.
Hi all
Here's a basic mock up of the orbital deffence platform and some basic layout details.
8 twin particle weapon turrets
4 flight decks for transports, supply ships ETC
The rear structure will contain missile tubes top and bottom
C&C in the centre
and at the far end there will be some sort of super structure for a war ship to dock in order to carry out repairs
Oh and some smaller point defence guns.

Nice idea :thumb: can't wait to see more (and possibly a couple of "other" ships docked as well )
I'm working on a Daedalus class ship. Heres what I got so far.
I'm thinking the stuff that the arrow points at needs to be moved to the front a bit, but I'm not sure coz its very hard to get the shape right without blueprints.
Comments would be greatly appriciated.
Also anyone know if its possible to render all 4 viewports into 1 image at once?

Try giving Bar a pm as he's making a large scale deadalus i would of thought that he would have blueprints or line drawings to take measurements off he may be willing to share:)
thorthefifth, looking good man. Don't worry about the texturing too much. It's not an easy thing to do. You are about a 150 gazillion steps ahead of me. It is a nice ship though. What I like most about it is that it's not a cookie cutter design and clearly your own, but still shows it's bloodlines to other Earth ships. Anyone could copy a ship, it takes REAL talent to create your own. My hat's off to you dude. :thumb:
Raffs, man-o-man, that is looking super sexy. Hmmm, I was thinking of something like that myself. Are you secretly reading my mind or something? LOL! Just kidding. I am looking forward to seeing the end result.
Eagle, very nice. Is that in 3d max right? Don't forget to name your ship. The spot where the arrow points to does need to come forward a little, but only the bottom part, so that it creates a slant back, but just a little. Looking good though.
Shiro, ok, that thing is just plain sexy. Very nicely done. Hmm, the Icarus, a companion to the Daedalus. Definitely a next gen ship. Excellent job.
Everyone has clearly put in a lot of effort and thought into their work. Your work and thoughts are respected and appreciated. Great job guys. Keep on modeling!!! :thumb:
Here is, what I'm currently working on.
In another forum, someone was wondering, what an Ori fighter craft would look like, so I gave it a try. looks a bit like a cylon raider of the new age, but I think, this ship still has a lot of its own features. still heavy WIP, so ideas on how this might look like would be cool.
like the main weapon of the transport ships? I thought, it would be on the side arms. the glowy part of the pincers are, in my opinion a cool place for weapons.
Not sure, if a weapon like that would look suitable since most small fighter crafts have fast firing weapons and the ori main weapon wasn't exactly the fastest weapon in firing rate.

here is the final version of the Hyperion all textured. Yeah I am not good at texturing at all.

Too much "army of darkness"?

Mostly inspired by Daedalus Class...
Bow Before Your God:devil:
Alanch90, the name is USS Icarus:)

Cool ship. :thumb:
reminds me a bit of Alnair's Achillies Class (which is good )
also: couldyou post some renders that are a bit lighter?
