you may now worship me

Coming Attraction!

[Taristin]

Interesting... to say the least.

But I refuse to worship false gods.

[Nico]

Looking good
But I already spend too much time worshipping myself, sorry
edit: There's too many polys in the engines if you ask me.

[Gloriano]

Nice

[TopAce]

A new goodie in the next MediaVP, I guess.

[Jetmech Jr.]

Well, my time is free, so: "All Hail Bobboau, Our Lord And Master! All Hail Bobboau...!"

Only thing I can complain about is the side areas near the front of the ship. They dont seem meant to be divided into sections. As for the rest, see above

[Lynx]

Very good! Now create some good looking textures for it because the original volition ones suck rotten eggs.

[Bobboau]

hmm, I thought the textures for that ship were some of the best in FS2.

the one thing I'm not to sure about is the thing I did on the upper part of the front section, it's a bit uneven, and I don't know if it goes with the rest of it

[Lynx]

Deimos textures:

The main hull map needs to be more detailed and bigger(less texture repetitions, granted with only 256x256 max texture resolution it's not that easy), more metallic(the original one looked like rough plastic, nearly like some sort off brickwall IMO without any shine effect) and the biggest gripe: If you could see the spaces between the armor plates on a ship that big from a mile away in such an obvious manner, that thing would be ready to fall apart.(problem of almost every capship in FS. The Fenris/Leviathan textures show how to make it right)

Window textures: just slapping on some diffuse texture with some light blobs =:ick: But with the additional detail on you r model it will help to make the window rows look less like a mess.

[Bobboau]

I plan on trying an alpha blending trick to make the windows look like they have stuff behind them

[Lynx]

*cues Mr Burns finger movement* Excellent.

But I was referring to another problem too: with just applying a standard windows tiling map, windows seemed to be cut off in the middle by other hull parts/textures. That looks truly awful. But I'm sure you take this into account.

[mitac]

Bobboau, this is simply awesome.

[aldo_14]

pcount?

[HotSnoJ]

I AM NOT WORTHY!!!

[Bobboau]

poly count currently in the 2000 range, I expect it to get into the 3,000s at least (not includeing turrets, I'll need to make a new turret as well naturaly)

[KARMA]

bob, while I have nothing against the fact that somebody else work on the same things I'm already working on (I'm extremely SLOW and I couldn't grant when I'll have finished it), it makes me a little upset to don't get advised, since I hate to waste time. You knew that I was working on a deimos too, and if it was your intention to do the same you could have PMed me: it'd have saved me from wasting some time recently;).

anyway, getting to the model:
awesome result, althought I partially disagree with some choices.
The part that I like less is the bulky front ventral section. In my opinion it should have been something like the ventral section of an ancient galleon with a more linear and curvy designed. Well, in my opinion all the deimos is inspired by a galleon and I was working in that direction, diverging a little more from the original.
The extrusion on the nose is probably a bit blocky
The rest is pretty good;)

<< is impressed

[vyper]

Karma, why don't you both do your own thing and let the community decide which is best? Keeps everyone honest about their work that way
