Star Trek Armada II Dawn of War

[Jetfreak]

Great design work, reminds me of Dan's rendition of the Cardassian advanced yard. The configuration is mighty similar.

 

[Fireball]

Thanks!
Well I'm not dead! lol, I've just been very very busy with school as its my final year!

However now that its exam time I'm home a lot more which means I find an hour or two here or there to work on things.
I've got the shipyard done and ingame.

I've also started working on this beuty:
Romulan Spaceship

Not perfect but I'm happy with what I have. It will be used as a scout ship in the mod. All that remains are textures and the usual things!

Enjoy!

 

[Majestic]

She looks great, very detailed.

 

[Terra_Inc]

Looks awesome. Can't wait to see her fully textured!

 

[K_merse]

YAY! I was worried that something happened to you. That Romulan ship is gorgeous

 

[Jetfreak]

Gorgeous work, definitely respectful to the lineage.

Thank you!

Haha thanks man! I'm working on it!

Yeah I've been tremendously busy!

Gorgeous work, definitely respectful to the lineage.

Thanks, that was my goal!

So I dissapeared again and am trying to get into the swing of things again. After university the majority of my energy was dedicated to finding a job. Now that I found one the majority of my energy has been dedicated to the job! As I am getting more into the routine I'm finding myself having a bit more time these days so I started playing A2 again to encourage myself to mod. Recent additions include Terra_Inc's amazing weapon textures for the Romulans as well as the Romulan shipyard! Hopefully I finish the Romulan scout soon and then something special and Federation coming up for a friend

 

[Fireball]

A couple of more for good measure!
I've also laid out all of the textures for the Scout.

Now I've just got to texture it! I'm finding it to be somewhat intimidating and challenging. The odd shape is making it difficult (Specifically the Crown or Helmet type structure!) But I'm sure I'll figure something out

 

[Terra_Inc]

Looks great, good to see the progress!

Also, I still owe you a torpedo, but you know how hard it is to find time with all the university stuff going on... May finish it sooner or later.

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to take that!

It's all good man, I completely understand, I know how it gets.
School is more important, anyways I think the Klingon's rather like the fact that there isnt any torpedoes yet

Then again plasma torpedoes are probably far more painfull

nice ti see you back

 

[Majestic]

Indeed it's great to see you back again and work on the mod.

 

[Fireball]

nice ti see you back

Thanks!

Indeed it's great to see you back again and work on the mod.

Thanks man! I did some work today!

Worked a bit on some of the textures, I'm loving the giant front windows, they give an aggressive almost Romulan squint!

Very time consuming texture! Although the section I textured represents a huge hurdle for me, one of the more difficult sections.

 

[Starfox1701]

very nice

 

[Majestic]

Quality textures are always time consuming and difficult even if you know what you're doing but always well worth it in the end. My BSG textures take 3 times longer to do than the model itself took.

Nice work, I love those Romulan ships.

 

[Jetfreak]

Very original man, did they have any basis in the design?

 

[Fireball]

Thanks guys! Agreed on all accounts about texturing.

Jetfreak this is a rendeition of Greg Jein's Romulan Starship.

Small updates

 

[Starfox1701]

She looks great

 

[Majestic]

Beautiful work Fireball.

 

[Jetfreak]

Definitely a good precursor to the Vas Hatam, lovely work! I can totally see them exchanging nukes with the Terrans!

 

[Fireball]

She looks great

Thanks buddy!

Beautiful work Fireball.

Thanks Maj!

Thanks, unfortunately no nukes here, just two distruptors..

So she's finished (texture wise).
Just needs damage!

Something good happened today to facilitate her getting done! My internet went down and I was able to finish the Scout. I really had a hard time working on it looking at the few available pictures online. With the internet down I had no pictures, improvised and finished! The upside is that it's done, the downside is that it's not as loyal to Greg Jein's original as I would have liked.

Anyone have a name for this thing other than Scout? (Jet is that the name of Jein's design?).

Pics Attached

 

[Majestic]

Beautiful work mate, as for a name, perhaps something bird like or perhaps just look up Romulan names on google and find something you like. That's what I did with the Cardassians.

 

[Starfox1701]

That texture job is Awsome

Woohoo! Looks awesome!

Dunno... when I'm looking for class names I usually look through Battletech stuff like a wiki... they have literally hundreds of awesome names in there. (BT Clans - providing you with cool names since 2807!)

Thanks man! Love the ideas, google definatley did help!

That texture job is Awsome

Thanks! It was a LOT of work...what sucks the most is that it's only a Scout! lol

Woohoo! Looks awesome!

Thanks buddy! Soon she'll be armed

Decided to do 2 more pics for scale and fun

She's 90% ready.
Hardpointing is almost done, damage is done!
Also fixed some screwups (bottom of "pylons" if you'll call them that)

 

[Avon]

Looking good, mate. Nice job with the textures.

 

[Fireball]

Looking good, mate. Nice job with the textures.

Thanks Avon!

She's done guys! 80 hardpoints, damage, emitters and all of the good stuff.

Enjoy

 

[Majestic]

Wow, beautiful work Fireball, she looks great next to your starbase.

 

[Adm_Z]

Brilliant work man, I wish i had the ability to texture like that:Y

 

[Starfox1701]
