Ohhh! How cute! I would have used splines for the ring.

"One ring to find them, and in the dark to bind them..."

 

Of course! It was a wedding ring! The one ring to rule them all- the wedding ring, indicating that a woman now dominates all aspects of your life! That art just made it apparent to me!

I've gotten to the point where I prefer to use poly modelling with NURMS meshsmoothing.

When it comes to higher detail and higher poly models - it's more effective, but requires a lot of planning and fiddiling to get it to work.

It worked well Krytos fella

Dali stuf always weirded me out even in art class.

 

Real nice Krytos. Whish I'd noticed that a few days ago. Might have printed it off to show people at work.

Thanks guys

But I can't really take the credit seeing as I followed someone elses tute

Be that as it may, it still looks good.

A little effect from photoshop on one of those photos I posted. The history brush, after desaturating the image to grey scale. The art hisrtory brush is used to restore the image to an older form as selected in the history tab - so in this case, after making the image grey scale you can paint back the colour. So simple! And great for adding contrast and focus to an image.

And a model:

A Light Assault Vehicle (LAV) based transport for the New Republic (or if they don't want it, some other guy!). Capable of transporting ... maybe 8 people into battle (having looked into that yet ) on a repulsor chasis at 400 kph this can then back the soldiers up with a decent medium blaster cannon intended on saturating light to medium targets (think the 30mm cannon on a M2 Bradely ... or maybe the new Rheinmetall MLG 27) and engage heavier units with 4 retractible missile launchers. Umm, other made up stuff ... yeah.

Krytos (which means Crete in German btw) great LAV. - Grand Moff Conway

Really neat vehicule there Kryt. I intend to start work on a Dragon model this weekend. As well as a Pirate starfighter.

Great work, Krytos! Looks pretty cool ... and dangerous.

Huh?? http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/konfus/a035.gif (Tofu-Smiley)

 

I guess you mean Gräte, which means fishbone. But I rather guess that Krytos is a fantasy-name. Because I`ve never heard that word before.

That is like quality Krytos!

Have you ever read the X-Wing book series? Its the name of a virus.

No, never. And just mentioned elsewhere here I´m not sure if I ever will. But I guess I was right that Krytos is a fantasy name.

Yes you were.

A design I found of the ship i shall be modelling this weekend.

 

I know i didn't choose the easiest.

No, never. And just mentioned elsewhere here I´m not sure if I ever will. But I guess I was right that Krytos is a fantasy name.

 

The Krytos virus It's edumacational! (I added the "ma" on purpose, BEAKers...)

Thanks for the link, Tofu.

 

I favour that black sun fighter.

Actually that is the Virago. Prince Xizor's personnal transport. He aquired all the productionh rights from MandalMotors and it was only after his death that more StarViper ships were produced.

I have no idea about that. All that I know these fighters were seen in the "Shadows of the Empire"-Game and Prince Xicor was still alive there. Was a bit hard to play, but it had lots of nice cutscenes in it. And there was even a nice scene with the Black Sun Fighters.

Kick ass LAV there Krytos. I could definitely see that in action.

 

Decided to finally stop in and post another Starfighter design; the "Gunfigher" (Applications for new names here.)

It's a single engine Light Interceptor. I created the base design a few years ago but didn't care for how it came out so I did a little re-tuning of the design last week.

Some of you may be thinking 'Omg, that's not a light fighter, it's not light at all.'

It is light compared the the heavy interceptors.

This thing does not have the power systems necessary to be fitted with a Jump Drive or the room to do so. It does however support a handfull of small shield projectors which can be relocated to better protect the fighter depending on the mission type.

Looks a bit like a mixture of a Tomcat, a F16 and an Eurofighter. But nice. Use more angles to make it look more star wars-like.

That heavy interceptor is impressive.

Very nice D fella!

 

I felt inspired to make a Scout Panda:

Lol, trying to invade everything with Panda's lately J?

Still it looks cool.

 

I'm not going to put more angles on it Eagle, it's supposed to cut through an Atmosphere so it needs rounded-ness for flow.

No problem, mate. It was just a proposal.

 

@Jahled

Lol! Pandas against Ewoks!
