Ticon and Pyrexia Ship Sets are now available

Cool work Atrocities!!

That's right I use 3ds Max.
I had actually used AutoCAD in my first attempts, I work in architecture and that's a program I was familiar with, but I never got to understand the more complicated rendering stuff. The Niridia shipset was made in autocad and exported into 3dsMax for the final touches and rendering.
And Captain Kwok uses Moray+POV-Ray.
Check this topic about 3d tools.

Well, D*MN ... I love the blue ones -- Ticon, eh? Well, as soon as you finish that set, I'll be adding it to my list of "love to use them" shipsets. Gorgeous is what they are.

Hmm, having looked at the work-in-progress page now ... Ihave to say, the Pyrexia TOO will be joining that list.

I have only one thing to say to you now, Atrocities:

MORE!!!!!!!

Atrocities:

I think the Ticon Consortium is your best work to date. My only suggestion would be to improve the scale between the different ship sizes.

Just a suggestion - almost all shipsets keep the same color gamma throught all ships. Sometimes it makes very different to pick up mini-ship images on the map. I think it would be nice if you indroduce slightly different shades to ship types. Like warships are deep blue, carriers are sky blue, transports are violet blue, etc. Just to make ships more telling from the first glance.

Aren't different shapes and sizes enough?

Thanks guys.

That is a cool idea Oleg.

The ships will be sized correctly when I release the set.

Thanks again guys.
