Reservoir ship model

[Mad78]

I am making a model based on a ship seen in the Rogue Squadron series for my TC. Here are a few pics. The model is 6990 polys.

Note: I am also working on a model based on a ship from the Rapora wars rpg. Pics can be seen here

Woo, that's already a lot of polys. How many sides does the main barrel of the ship have ?

You could try to reduce the polycount significantly by reducing the number of sides for the round objects. Something like 12-14 should work perfectly, since higher numbers always look good in your 3D prog, but eat up a lot of polys

For example JM helped me reducing the polycount of my SSD with suggesting to reduce the sides of the engines to 14 for each tube

 

Btw, what ship-class is this ? I've never seen it before and I always want to increase my knowledge

Thanks for the info about the poly count i shall do that once4 i have actually finished the model.

The ship class: Well i don't know i saw the ship when i was playing Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader. On the Kessel level. And thought it would be ideal for my mod so i made this. Thats why i call it reserevoir ship. But i would guess it would be Sorosuub make.

BTW what do you think of the Rapora ship model?

Ahh, that 's the reason, why I didn't know it.

Thumper and TF would be better suited to give you the name of it, though.

 

The Rapora ship doesn't look bad either, you're definately making progress, grasshopper

BTW did you receive my PM about textures that i couldn't get to work?

[the_mask]

Actually, I wasn't sure if I already answered that one.

Did you see the textures in the game, cause not seeing them in RebEd is not proof, that they aren't there
