[Saktoth]

Is there enough of a difference there? Does this work as a sub?

[bartvbl]

make the 'windows' of the tower on the sub a bit more blue.. Perhaps that adds to the idea that it is underwater.

[Das Bruce]

The main tower is still very surface ship.

[Saktoth]

Maybe i should wait for the other one to be textured and try and make something out of it because it may be more appropriate. But if we do only conversions of crems models thats going to be 3 ships (since the battleship is going to be baah) to do all the ships from, 3 each thats 9 units.

+1, just leave one red "window" and it could work

Or something more complex and closer to my original concept?

LUNCH TIME! have a w.i.p.

[MidKnight]

lol. the plating looks a little like the heat plating on space shuttles. Nice job with it. Can't wait to play around with the finished one.

[bobthedinosaur]

nice details smoth!


need to add elevators and elevator doors. oh man this is going to be a nightmare to UV

[smoth]

depending on the mesh I could uvmap that in about 20 minutes.

[bobthedinosaur]

well heres is ( kind of ) what i have so far. maybe i should add some AA phalanxes or something? and smoth i just might take you up on that.

[smoth]

not really offering just saying it really isn't terrible.

[MidKnight]

Some AA guns would help break up the flat-ness of the thing, whether that's a good or bad thing is your call. IMO go for it!

PS:
When UVmapping it, please try not to do any sort of crazy overlapping, for my sake.
Overlapping identical parts is fine, but please don't put the UVs for the bottom and top of the tower over the same area or any of that kind of stuff.

[Saktoth]

Gorgeous, bob! Not sure about the spikes though.

Forget AA guns, add missile launchers.

[hamsate]

Some gun again.

[smoth]

Is that an ak47? the fire selector seems small and the handguard seems a bit short.

[Warlord Zsinj]

I like the spikes, I reckon you should keep them, they add character

[SeanHeron]

I wouldn't add any guns or missiles or such - depending on what we do with it, the decks going to be busy enough with stuff anyhow. Plus I think the elevators give good relief from being to homogenous (they were a very nice addition!).

On the elevators: I'd consider adding some struts to the elevator, and/or a crossbar were they cut into the deck - so that the look is less of a "chunk bit out of the side", and more punched out/cut out from the top. But that's probably a matter of taste.

I've said it elsewhere but - I think it's a sweet model overall :) !
