WZ's Accuser Romulan retexture up.
« on: January 11, 2005, 11:17:35 pm »
OK, it's up at Battleclinic. I know that Wicked Zombie is into cars. So, I added some extra chrome and pinstripes, as well as the C-stripes reminiscent of the late 60's Mustang "pony cars" and some scoops on the wings. I couldn't really add the wing pattern to the bottom, I couldn't find any place to put it, so I settled for some "feathery" looking striping on the rear dorsal area of the wings. I hope that you like it.

If Romulans aren't cowards, then why do they taste like chicken?

Nice, its very simple and has just enough detail

Thanks, FW. I tried adding more "stuff" (hull plating, decals) to the top of the wings and decided that it looks better plainer. The lines are smoother and it gives an illusion of roundness to the wings profile, to me. The model is pretty blocky and more stuff just exaggerated that.

It didn't start off that way, but somewhere along the way it started to remind me of "old school muscle car" in the detailing and I remembered that WZ did a Defiant that he has Ford Mustang detailing on. I decided to see if I could go in that direction without making it hoke. So, I left off the headers and mags.  :D

Thanks for the encouraging comments, everyone (Sandman, red green too). WZ's C7 is next and that should complete the set. After that I'm hoping to be able to do Taldren's pirate ships with Cartel specific textures. At least the Korgath (some Korgath Klingon hulls too) and Syndicate, for starters. Those are the only two Cartels that I still have in my game. I'm still trying to assemble a complete set of models for the "Galaxies at War" mod. Hopefully I'll improve in my skills a bit more each time. That's the plan, anyway.
