What formatt are they currently in, out of curiosity? Good to hear there will be more like these, though I'm not sure what shape you'll be using for the king condor, if it's the same basicly theme as the 2 in here it should be great.

They're being modelled in Maya, and then converted to .3ds for conversion purposes.

Just for you, Starforce, here's a sneak peek at what we call the Aen'rhien-class Warbird. (Translates as "Bloodwing.") Please note that this is a concept model only, one that CJ put together just to get the shape down for StressPuppy's approval (the whip-cracking tyrant :p ). This model will almost certainly be rebuilt from scratch.

what is that little thing flying up it's ass?

Captain Pierce · « **Reply #23 on:** April 17, 2005, 09:53:30 am »

It's a fighter design we were working on to be carried by this ship... it will probably wind up as a PF at some point...

I thought that was just supposed to fly up your nose...

The "refit" version is nearly done:

Needs a bit of texture tweaking yet according to CJ, but I'm going to start hardpointing without them...

(Oh, excuse teh crappy renders, I did them.

)

bumpage. nearly a month since the last post...time to harass you for another update

CommanderJones has switched over to modelling mode, and has been busy rebuilding the Aen'rrhien--I hope to have some WIP's of that sometime soon. Once he's got that done, he'll switch back over to texturing mode, and do those tweaks to the Hlai before starting in on the Aen'rrhien.

Bump this. :p

Yeah, I finally got around to hardpointing the Hlai Refit.

If I can track down Stress to brk it (and the original), we might have some new releases here...

Rhaz · « **Reply #33 on:** August 25, 2005, 09:58:32 pm »

woot!

Looking sweet.

now that is a nice warbird. What are the things under the nacelles? Pulse cannon?

Captain Pierce · « **Reply #35 on:** August 26, 2005, 05:45:30 pm »

Plasma torps. We decided we didn't like the way that most nacelle-mounted torps just appear out of nowhere...

Starforce2 · « **Reply #36 on:** August 26, 2005, 11:13:19 pm »

so then whats the traditional tube in the bow used for?

Captain Pierce · « **Reply #37 on:** August 27, 2005, 08:24:39 am »

More plasma torpedoes.

The Condor in SFC2 has one torpedo in the bow and one on each nacelle, if I'm reading the hardpoints right... the CON+ has an extra one on each nacelle...

bumpity

Captain Pierce · « **Reply #39 on:** October 09, 2005, 08:22:12 pm »

Still waiting on the brk's from Stress... he's been busy as hell lately, but hopefully he'll have a chance here soonish...
