Human Dreadnought: High Detail

Fuzzy Modem · Post by **Fuzzy Modem** » 2004-02-21 03:06pm

For "Dragons: The Runner"- I decided to add more detail to this mesh as it will be seen very close up in some shots.

It still needs more work, but It's getting there...

Very nice, not so overgunned as to look wank-ish, but enough to be menacing.
Dig it.

Very cool. *Right-click, save as* If I ever show it to anyone you will of course get credit.

Looks like a Millenium Falcon on steroids

I like it. What did you make it with?

Are those guns on the bow?

If that beautiful peice of interstellar machinery was done in LightWave, I am going to kill you. I just got hold of LightWave 7.5 and I'm crap with it so far.

He does have talent, you must admit it

And practice makes it perfect.

He uses Rhino and Maya IIRC.

I've seen the finished model before, but nice anyway.

The turrets I don't have a problem with. But what's the point of the smaller forward guns? Nice work though. Looks good.

For some reason I had to type that three times to avoid typing it in leet. That was weird.

Anti-Air or maybe your looking at the comms antenna.

Looks more like a Narn cruiser to me.

Funny, I was thinking about the Centauri Cruiser (the larger one).

I'm not familliar with many Sci-Fi universes, so the closest match I found was the MF.

Nic render.

Very nice.

Gives an air of menacing and with a hint of sleek.

Though a lot of guns for a frontal assault.

Same here. IMHO it looks like the bastard child of a Centauri Primus-class battlecruiser and an upgunned Star Destroyer.

Excellent work, Fuzzy.

What's the big thing sticking out the bottom?

Your best work yet IMHO. Are you planning to texture it?

Anti-Air or maybe [you're] looking at the comms antenna.

Um, okay, you have twelve big ass forward guns which I assume are the main antiship armament. You then have another 16 medium guns in the same blocks, four light guns farther to the sides, and another 8 light guns in dorsal pods. All of these fire forward. I doubt these are really anti-air, because they are way bigger than the turreted guns, and I assume the larger turrets are worth firing at capships. The medium guns I suppose might be good for trying to hit smaller warships, if your big guns are really slow to charge, but why the light guns? And why not turret something that size?

And if I'm wrong, then what's the point of forward-firing anti-air guns on a dreadnought?

Think it has enough guns?

I took one glance and immediately started whistling the main theme from 'Pirates of the Caribbean'.

Good work!
