Very nice eye candy!
Take an idea from one person and twist or modify it in a different way as a return suggestion so another person can see a part of it that can apply to the oxp they are working on.

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
that's what my tianker did
i figured since she was full of Q fuel, if you were stupid enough to shoot her, something really bad would happen, but like dropping a lit match into a petrol tanker.

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
That one is a 6,500ish polygon model, I have since been tinkering with it and (at the loss of a few little pieces) have got it down to 2200ish, but it still needs to be triangulating, which will probably almost double that.
I have no plans to release it, but if Amaranth wants to include it he can (although it needs to be UV unwraped and textured)

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
If you like (or at least, don't mind) reading manga, there's this near-future (2070) hard sci-fi manga called "Planetes" (ΠΛΑΝΗΤΕΣ) - and fear not, there really are no giant mecha or space aliens involved(*).DaddyHoggy wrote:Life imitating Art (possibly): http://www.gizmag.com/gas-stations-in-space/20557/
It opens with a passenger sub-orbital flight hit by debris, and follows with a group of
space, er, debris disposal technicians' daily routine. Along the way, we get to see mining He-3 and ilmenite on the moon, Kessler syndrome results of an orbital war and the first manned expedition to Jupiter.
It ranges from character development, sociology, macroeconomics and 0g effects on psychophysiology to trivialities such as the difference between hard (though ungainly, hop in and you're good to go) and soft (decompress, or get the bends) space suits, why it's a bad idea to play baseball on the moon, and how come it's not impossible to be a practising Muslim in space.
(*) There's a Selenite and a guy who claims to be a space alien, but both are at least technically humans.
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
I am indeed a fan of Manga, so thanks for the heads up!

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
I have decided to add a couple of executive runarounds, based on the small ships from the PPK resurrection video. In role, they'll borrow from the Ferdie as a fast, agile ship with little cargo capacity.
The Sparrow is nearly complete also
and also the mobile pyro's playground, a.k.a. the fuel tanker

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
The fuel tanker is my favourite - and is pretty much how I thought an Oolite fuel tanker would/should look like.

Goody. Plenty of space for some nice fuel company liveries.

Re: Corporate Systems Flavour OXP
i like the tanker. i was going to redo a tanker model w/ three long tanks in a triangle formation, but it's gonna be at the back of my rapidly-growing ship-idea queue :-/
don't like the Sparrow tho, all those polys on the body make it look like a crumpled up ball of paper.
