The basic shape, still undecided, but the bridge section is final(without so much detail as there will be)

The engion area.
The textures were just slaped on, they are not final...
though I'd mention that. [img]http://www.firstones.com/forums/smile.gif[/img]

    "Are you a god fearing man, senator? It's such an strange phrase. I've always though of god as a teacher... as a bringer of light, wisdom and understanding. You see, i think what you really are afraid of is me. Me and my kind, the Brotherhood of Mutants. Oh, it's not so suprising really, mankind has always feared what it doesnt understand. Well, dont fear god senator, and certainly dont fear me... not anymore."

    Next time, make your own textures. I saw you used Nadab's Brikiri Glowmap in half a new york second. Use the Glowmap form the G'Quon or gamnymead coliney if you have to.
  • Good eyes DOM!
    I'm working on a new glow map, that will be much easyer then the metalic hull for me. [img]http://www.firstones.com/forums/smile.gif[/img]

    (Kinda like Kier's Shitty Death, only low poly, and my design)

    If Blender has Bump maps, there's you ticket to cheap and easy (well, at least it's less tedious then adding all those little cylenders and spheres) detail. That's what Netter dit ot the white star, and the shadow ships.

    I don't think there were any bumpmaps on the actual show models. According to a couple of the B5:ItF development team (who got to see the show models firsthand), there were no bumpmaps used on this ships. I'm pretty sure I remember this conversation.

  • Wow. It actually looks like something now.

  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    The unstoppable mr. K is correct (You can NEVER escape that name [img]http://www.firstones.com/forums/biggrin.gif[/img])
    see...bumpmaps are, imho, a way of simulating high surface detail, but often fail to achieve this...
    it has no actual detail, it is just an image giving a general description of what the height or depth of a certain area should be...
    Again, it is not a replacement for true polygonal details. just a quick fix.
    It also compliments smaller polygonal details very well, but if you have those details, it's not needed to have a bumpmap anyways [img]http://www.firstones.com/forums/smile.gif[/img]

    I ment like WS 90 in ACtA, and Crusade. I thought the shadow Veins were bumped. Oh well.
  • X-OmegaX-Omega Elite Ranger
    The Shadow veins can be made to look bumpy without bump maps in Lightwave. You just have to add a veins texture for color channel, specular channel and reflection channel, if I remember correctly. [img]http://www.firstones.com/forums/smile.gif[/img]
