    Here is a very quick update.
    I had a quick go at modelling the guns for the Battlestar. see what you think any advice on them would be appreciated.

    how about some sort of super gun or another hanger deck?

    If you don't want to do that, do different gribble to the BSG?
  • Ice-DragonIce-Dragon0 Posts: 0Member
    Thanks Freak for the suggestions.
    Just a quick render but how is this for different panelling.

    Very nice update I-D. Very impressed with how you can get Blender to make this model.

    Compliments & respect!

    Thats an impressive pic I-D. .. really does show off your skills :thumb:
  • Ice-DragonIce-Dragon0 Posts: 0Member
    Thanks yoda, if I have some time over the weekend I wont to redo the inside of the hanger bays to make them look right, o and carry of with the panelling ( the rest will look like Galactica in till I have added the guns and then I'll redo some of it to make it look slightly different )

    Some really good work here. ONe thing I do like about the new Galactica is the "built in sections" look she has, like the Daedalus Class in Trek. I think you've emphesised that really well here. Was that the intention? (I don't mean to make her look like a Daedalus).

    I wasn't aware that I was / or that it did but thanks for pointing that out to me .
    I'll have to take a better look at her:lol:

    That's how the new Galactica looks to me. It's the latteral grid type... thing. But then that could be a sort of Hyperlight engine grid.

    Hi guys, A small update for you.

    The panels on the flight pods are done ( I've used the front panels of the flight pod on the back aswell.)
    BattlestarAthena.15.jpg
    Here is some thing I was playing with to day.
    th_unknowngunship.1.jpgth_unknowngunship.2.jpg
    I would like your comments on it.
  • FreakFreak1088 Posts: 4,361Member
    paneling looks great.

    Not user if the other thing is a ship or a weapons pod with engines. but it looks intresting.

    Thanks Freak, the panels are getting there.
    As for the other thing:lol: it was meant to be a ship but it just didn't come out right. working on a rebuild of that.

    Edit:-


    OK so that ship was not very good:( but have done a quick rebuild and reduced the size and here it is.

    shes looking mighty fine there I-D ;)

    and a very nice concept although the first one looks like it could very well blow up half the galaxy with its trio of forward arrays :flippy:

    :lol::lol: I guess it could probably best to go with the second concept then.
  • ElffinElffin171 Posts: 0Member
    I really like your second attempt :thumb:... the first one did look..... dangerous ahem!

    My suggestion is to remove the first two rail guns...and the two outer (smaller ones) just to make it a bit lighter..

    You could place some of your flak canons on her instead...

    defnitley has potential to develop into a useful BSG support ship..
