Pretty fucking cool man. When do we get to see that bad ma'ma ja'ma in action?

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-02-19 03:59am

Well whenever I finally get around to learn actual rendering. Not quite there yet, buy here's something with guns:

That's another original looking one. (To me anyway. I'm sure it looks like some obscure ship, but I'm not a complete Sci-Fi nerd like some people on the board

) Dig it.

Looks like a manta ray, and that's awesome. I love the cell-shaded look it has!

Oh man, make one that looks like a sting-ray, and call it the Steve Irwin.

Man, thats just freiken wrong, lol. Anyways, small UPDATE:

Havok · Post by **Havok** » 2008-02-20 02:41am

Needs more starfield. That is one bad ass looking fleet. Does it have any kinda back story or is it just something you came up with. It also needs fighter escorts.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-02-22 11:27pm

No back story yet. Fighters are going to be more difficult to create, but I just finished a gunship type thing, about 150 meters long.

UPDATE: Reworked some of my old models. Check it.

UPDATE: Just completed work on my first fighter.

Havok · Post by **Havok** » 2008-03-05 11:58pm

THAT is FUCKING COOL! Do you know how to animate? I would love to see these, and your other ships, in action.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-03-06 12:17am

I have no freiken idea, but i would kill to learn how to use the better 3d programs and animate.

The fighter looks a little larger than I would have expected, but that doesn't change the coolness.

As for animating things, I have a little experience with that. I could try and give you a little advice, or if you don't mind sharing the models, I could try and knock up a scene for you.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-03-06 09:12pm

I don't mind at all. Let me know.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-03-07 01:23am

UPDATE: Added some small details to the fighter and slightly revised some things. I apologize for the poor image quality, Photobucket didnt like my JPG's so I had to save them as GIF's. OH, and big gun up front, heh.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-04-07 08:46pm

Update 4/07: Well my graphics card took a shit on me a few weeks ago and my hard drive got infected, so I cant work on my models till i get a new graphics card. To tide over the time i've scanned in some old designs I did about 6-7 years ago:

First, some destroyer type ship

Next is a gunship/dropship thing

This one took me forever to draw, and its sort of the progenitor to my current design lineage:

Tell me what you all think, or if you have any ideas/helpful hints.

Just putting up a battlestar concept ive been working on:

Havok · Post by **Havok** » 2008-05-16 08:45pm

That's pretty cool, but, is it just me or, does it look like it is made out of Legos?

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-05-17 08:34pm

Well, im still working on creating curves in sketchup.

Tasoth · Post by **Tasoth** » 2008-05-17 11:59pm

I dislike sketchup mainly because it's ruined my ability to learn a true 3d modelling program. Oddly enough, I still love it.

As for curves, Might be some help. Yeah, I know it's for a sphere, but you can do all kinds of fun curves with that technique.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-05-26 05:21pm

UPDATE 5/26/2008: Just finished a model of one of the designs I posted earlier, let me know what you think..

Hawt. Looks like an ISD had a baby with a G'Quan.

Grahf: Seeker Of Power · Post by **Grahf: Seeker Of Power** » 2008-06-05 11:54pm

Update 6/5/2008: Worked on a smaller, cheaper fighter with comparison shots with the larger one.
