[quote="SandJ"]Good chap vegetable.[/qoute] Good chap vegetable berry. A pumpkin is not a vegetable; it's a fruit! In fact, it's a berry. Pumpkins belong to the family Cucurbitaceae, which includes cucumbers, melons, squash, and gourds. Within this family is the genus Cucurbita which inclu...

Thanks Drew! Scaled it up, and added a standard-sized docking port - almost 5650m in diameter, so think it's big enough? :) Just finished UV mapping it out for texturing... easy part done. Now just have to learn how to texture well enough to do it justice, then work out the scripting side of things...

BTW, we're looking for somebody to build the Tionisla Chronicle Array - a bit like "The Wave" in Firefly/Serenity - you seem like the ideal candidate! Threw around a load of hexagons on Wings 3D and came up with this... http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d127/Mini-Nukette/th_TCA1.png http:...

Oops. Saw there was already a Stingray, a Manta and a Ray... didn't check Manta Ray though, sorry Thargoid!

Perhaps Manta Star Boat, as I was imagining it also produced by Marine Trench Co. like the Moray?

Thanks DaddyHoggy. True, could scale the d10 by making the docking port smaller. Any pictures you can link for 'The Wave'? Searched on Google to no avail. Another new ship, the Manta Ray - an amphibious space vessel like the Moray, designed for traders... http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d127/Mini-...

The Wolf Mk II - I played the Amiga version for a long time, after my dad sold his beeb and I never managed to reach Elite in that version, I did finally get there on the Amiga :) so figured this ship should accordingly be part of my core line up... http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d127/Mini-Nukett...

Now, these jokes are just getting udderly ridiculous... k seriously now, we'd better not derail the thread any more

Good thing its not built on a moon, or it might be a MoOonastery.

Another new ship design.. the Meerkat . Probably will need a comparethespacemeerkat.com advertisement campaign on the AD-X terascreen billboards. :) http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d127/Mini-Nukette/th_Meerkat_1.png http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d127/Mini-Nukette/th_Meerkat_2.png http://i34.ph...

Hoping to model all the original ships, as well as some extra ones of my own which I'll release separately - eventually :) Textures will probably take me a while! Decided to drop my previous model of a thargoid drone fighter (which may well become a ship for another alien race instead) and go back t...

I think I just about understand the use of lighting channels now, thanks guys!

Will make it that much easier when I start playing around with skins for my models properly.
