Re: Ships and stuff
Thanks for the comments everyone. Here are some more pics developed from the metallic looking ship. They turned out pretty good but are there too much details in them? After all 128*128 is not very large area. |

Re: Ships and stuff
The last set of ships is nice, although you may want to add some sort of glowy colour thing where their "mouths" are. Moray / Pov-Ray?

Re: Ships and stuff
I think all 4 of the original pic were worthy of being turned into a complete set.
The heart looking one even. It might be built up around some organic, diplomatic, sickeningly peace-corp race that the war-mongers would simply love to stumble across.
Maybe as one of the single-system AIs. After all, we have SO MANY available now but there are still some extreme variants we can fill in so everything doesnt feel the same. Hmmm a cuddly-bunny race whose survival is based on high-population, high spread, and colonizing nearly everything.
Can they fire colored eggs at us?  (j/k)

Re: Ships and stuff
Making ships seems to be more fun then I remembered. I made a less friendly looking version of the heart ship.

Re: Ships and stuff
I have used only Pov-Ray when making these. I like to handcode stuff.

Re: Ships and stuff
All of these prototypes are interesting, though for the original 4 the lower right is quite 'conventional' 
I like your expansion for the machine ships and the less transparent killer heart ship is nice , would it still be possible to have an 'inside' slightly visible in it though?
Well done! Your ships have lots of promise. It is a shame that they look to high poly for SEV

Re: Ships and stuff
For the metallic shipset (the one you've expanded on), maybe you could add some variation across the hulls in the form of different shadings or features, unless that is how you want them to look. Just a thought.

Re: Ships and stuff
Oh and Zarix, now that you have returned, any chance of updating your Image Mod mirror?
