Default shipsets.

what do you guys use to make the 3d type shipsets?

I looked for some tutes but I could only find tutes for the find a picture then convert it type.

I wana make an invaider zim shipset
I have done some 3d modiling its the textures that get me, though with this I guess the textures dont have to be verry detailed.

There already is a invader zim shipset, more or less. See Zero Adunns excellent rendition of my Vectorians, who are at least as far as style and looks go, very much like Zim.

I AM ZIM! how do I know that I AM ZIM!? because I am amazing. Like a ZIM!

Who? What ship makers are you talking about. I think they mostly make them with paint and croyons.

Yeah, ya stick the shapes together ike Legos, resize them if needed, add a texture, maybe lighting effects/transparency and voila a ship.

Render it and save as .bmp. Doga III render engine allows re-sizing too so you can make a shipset fairly easy.
