Shipset Request

Lord Kodos · #1 April 13th, 2003, 08:46 AM

Hi i need an artist to create a shipset for one of my races, the Azlokians.

The Azlokians are simply put a combination of Zombies, and the Ilwrath of SC2.

They are a race of spider people who once had a mighty galaxy spanning empire, that was destroyed in record time, by the Jonol a godlike race who beleive they are the spawn of the Dark God Va'roci and will not rest until the universe has been purged of all sentient life save their own.

Since then the Azlokians have been rebuilding their shattered empire and trieng to find revenge;however thier anihilation by the Jonol was so total that they would have died off within five years had it not been for The Great Worm.

According to the Azlokians, The Great Worm had blessed their fallen warriors with new life with which to strike agasint the enemies.

Basically the Azlokians have undead, they are the primary race in LR mod to use the Necromantic tech tree, and are one of the Minor NPCs over at the Legacies community.

I need a shipset for them.

Their ships where very large and advanced, but are now run down and broken, shells of their former selves, held together in places by little more then Web. Basically this would be a unique set of Ghost Ships with massive webs on them ^_^ if anyone is interested in making this set for me, please offer your help, im not that picky.

Thanks anyway.

Be Seeing you.

I'll see what I can do. Are there ships organic looking or mechanical looking?
(EDIT)
Ahh, I see, These guys....

So you want it based on that but not a total ripoff? I think I can pull this off. I'll make the ships look like that but busted up a little, with webbing around them and perhaps a few original touches.... TO DOGA!!!

(EDIT 2)
Early draft, what do you think(sorry for the darkness, I'll fix that)? I haven't "detailed" them much yet(not so much damage apparent, no "web"), I feel they should be lighter and perhaps maybe red or green, I just made them gray to see how'd look and ask your input.

(btw, that's a battle cruiser)

Ooh very nice ^_^

For certain ships i would like uhh like holes or whatnot in the ship to with web over it. After all most of the Azlokian ships are repaired ones from the war with the Jonol ^_^

But i could care less, those ships are kick *** ^_^

WOAH

That's amazing! That ships worth downloading the mod itself for! It's not finished you say? Hugh, you're fastly becoming my favourite shipset designer

I'm glad you are pleased, I have an Idea, Instead of "rust" as the secondary texture(I just figured this out, I'm still not quite sure how the "bump" stuff works) I'll make a new one that looks like battle damage and burn marks. The webing shouldn't be to hard, I'll put the "swarm" and the space buttewrfly's on hold for awhile.

But please take note, I don't know jack squat about AI though, your on your own with that. I'll make the ships, you make them move

(EDIT) Did you want them Neostandard compatible? I assume you do.

Hugh, check your private Messages (view your profile).

Yeah. Im VERY pleased, its just what i was hoping for.

Yeh neostandard would be nice.

If its not a bother make two troops and racepics, one "alive" and the other undead, with bones showing, flesh decaying and whatnot.

BTW i didint mention their biology much.

Ever play Warcraft 3? know the Nerubians think that but with four arms on top. If you need a pic i have a few ^_^

Thanks again! ^_^

Actually a few pic would be nice to work off of, just send them to my email(I just turned it "on", I think I trust this board), uploading them is a bother.

And Spiders don't tecnichally have bones. they have Exoskeletons and inner guts, so I was going to make the "dead" race pic a semi-transparent spider with dried up wrinkly guts on the inside.
