Mandible Class
« on: June 19, 2010, 09:26:46 am »
hello Dynaverse community.

I recently was playing SFCII OP and it got me in the mood to build a new model for it. a re-imagined centaur class to be exact. I may need help in getting her in game. I am happy with it so far, do you like? anything i should add to it?
The torpy lauchers will be located on the underside. I have shorter fatter pylons with integrated impulse assembly. Fighter bay will be located to the aft.

I have deleted all images as of 1st October 2010 and you can see the latest ones on page 2 thank you.

I have finished the model.

I decided to not make a torpy area on the bottom because it looked too old fashioned. I want this to look like a lost era ship. between the excelsior and amby class  :) Now I am happy with the look and lines of her she is very aggressive, so will start textures now.

EDIT

Oops the underside

That is looking good

The Photon launcher in the later years was more like a single point and not a big bay by that time. You could very easily make it simular to the Sovergn (SP?) Class and put the launcher in the center of the lower part on the saucer

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

Very good idea  :)  I will do that. Thank you.

ok thanks to GotAFarmYet, Torpy is in place, in a dual formation. The structure underneath, is the main shuttle housing. Somewhat like the Capt yacht, but not just for him. Fighters and shuttles come out the rear, but the bottom houses a bigger diplomatic craft, suitable for it's needs.

Model looks good.  I have a feeling though that somehow, for a newb around here, you managed to keep the poly count on this model within range of what most people here would want.

Thanks Centurus. It is clean (one object) and its count is 1958 Poly's. I like to keep them clean and low poly so it is easier on the mapping  :)

*finishes shooting at black holes*  Under 2k polys.  Not bad.

Nice gridlines. I would worry about poly-count though. Awesome design nonetheless.
