    Yo guys!

    I Decided that my faction name will be the...

    :cool: KLAWXX DOMINION :cool:
    ...Very original eh!?

    And we already have its first ship ready!
    • The amazing... "Noburo Heavy Fighter" [TM] !

    ( presented here on very poor resolution :sleep: )

    Yea, baby, that's a fully functional 3-barreled 75mm GAU auto-cannon! Now, how cool is that!?

    Busy Day - More incoming news!

    Here is the faction "Civilian" Cargo Shuttle. Sadly, still missing an official class designation:

    • There's room for 6 passengers and 18k cargo storage space, plus the 2 crew seats.
    • Also features an atmospheric mode which enable the ship wings that can be retracted to dock on ships or stations.
    [doublepost=1548256055,1548254381][/doublepost]​

    Wait! There's more!

    Here are the faction (Freighter) Containers. We have models for:
    • Gas Canister - 221k cargo cap.
    • Liquid Tank - 329k cargo cap.
    • Solid Crate - 554k cargo cap.
    • Secure (Reinforced) Crate - ... (its cargo capacity is a well guarded secret)
    They are stack-able and easily maneuverable, due to their IGN-BE ("Internal Gyroscopical Nonsensical Built-In Engines") [TM].



    What a Joyful day for the average Klawxx Dominion citizen !!!

    Yo.
    I will not post pictures this moment, since I'm on my shitty Linux PC at work; will do it later, but letting you know that the fighter and the shuttle have been revamped and recolored to match de faction color.

    I'm still doing some testing with the colors, but will probably be mainly dark grey for exposed areas and brown for the armor plating. Not sure yet, but the windows might be either black (crystal) or red (crystal) for more color diversity. I was happy with the results I got from my Minmatar conversions from eve online. Brown/Grey/Red turned out to be a cool and less used color combo on starmade.

    Also, I think I will trow away the idea of a secure crate and just stay with the other 3 models.

    Hello guys.

    Had to take an extended leave for a couple of months due to a very complex project at work, but in some rare moments I was thinking it was time to work on my ultimate Starmade dream: a Sovereign class Federation Battlecruiser starship from Star Trek later movies.

    It will be 1:1, 700m long; It's something that will probably take a couple of years.






    I Finished the Bridge and the Captain's Ready Room so far, going for fidelity as possible, like adding those auto-opening-rail-doors...



    If anyone interested, here it's a link to my source material and a some more screenshots....

    Hey.

    I have been working on the Impulse Drives and a generic hallway pattern. Also, Saucer section shape might be complete soon.
    The Ellipsoid tool is proving to be invaluable to achieve certain shapes used on Star Trek, like the Saucer and secondary hulls.
    The Light grid on the background is being used to get the proportions right.

    Hey!
    Had some spare time today so I did some stuff from old Star Wars. Anyone remember the Prince Xizor and his "Virago" Ship?
    I will probably rework the wings to make them a bit less flat.

    By the way, sorry for the crap pictures, I actually took them with my mobile phone cam.


    ...Open Wings:


    ...Closed Wings:


    ...Back + engines:

    You still actually play EVE right? Also you should use EVE_NT Ship Editor

    It's the successor to CPPC.
    Well Actually no. It's been like 5 years. I do know they have newer models and stuff, but with wife/kids I barely have any time at all... The last time I had to change a diaper I lost a battleship =(

    Thanks for the tip about NT Ship Editor. I will take a look at it.
    Cheers.

    Did some modifications for better fidelity. I'm so eager to work on this ship, but baby takes a lot of my time... oh well...
