Interesting... a new take on the Eagle Mk 4 long-range fighter?

Wings3D is proving addictive. I've got lots of models in the works now...

Besides the already showcased Lifepod, Sidewinder, Thargoid Invasion Ship and Drone, I've now got - Thargoid Warship, Q-Bomb, Fer-de-Lance, Dodo Station, and a few new objects, a Decahedron Station ('d10'), a Solar Harvester Station and a couple of new ships which I'm calling the Hyena (a maneuverable combat ship, about the size of a Krait) and the Giraffe (a passenger ship.)

I think rather than filling this thread with lots of pictures, it may be best to start a thread of my own. Storm Shipyards?

Gawd knows how I'll find time to texture them all!

LOL!! That's the way it is with Blender for me. It's too addictive. I have way too many ships, and would probably boor the forum to sleep with them all. Most are, unfortunately, not player ships, and tend to rate in the Behemoth category.

That is a cool ship, Ross154. Looks like a wicked fighter. :)

Scale this up to huge, reduce the poly-count, and you have a brilliant model for a "Tionisla Chronicle" antenna array OXP. Something which is missing from my Oonivers. Hint, hint. :D

Open a free account at Photobucket (or similar), upload your pics to there, then post a link.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

I recently tried Droplr, works well for all sort of documents that you want to share, including images. Just add the URL you receive after uploading between

Code: Select all
