I haven’t played around in 3D for some time now so I wouldn’t keep my hopes high, anyway I’ve always liked more to create stations instead of ships and there aren’t that many ppl around who need or even want new stations.

Station modules.

Way better than make a “solid” station

The moar variety, the moar type of stations. You know, the same outpost station in every corner of Sirius…

Sols stations can be made modular

What we need is a modeler with the time to do it though… Sol used alot of similar sized pieces (at the attachment points) and themes his work to fit together… so breaking it all up and exporting per piece as per say our actual modular .cmp models should be very easy… might have to close the odd open end though… and that’s were a proper modeler… not just a proficient converter is needed.

Oh… and, Good To See ye Sol 8-)

When i had to make a nomad station for my mod, i looked at disco’s “Nomad Shrine”, and filled my keyboard by salvia…

I decided to make something similar, but not similar at the same time…
So, my nomad bases:

Nomad Hatchery, Nomad Hive and Nomad weapon platform

p.s. ***if you up to make a *.sur for them - pm me…

I’ve textured SolCommand’s “Dax” into a coalition transport.
Here’s a view:

Better hull texture and custom window texture and it would be a pretty good one.

A quick one.
Is the Freelancer version of Lancer Fighter from Homeworld 2.

Just a note Fagu, you should turn up the lighting when you render out models. I have a hard time actually seeing your models because the shadows are so dark.

I suggest you set up a simple, re-usable 3-point lighting rig. Or, at the very least use an ambient light like a dim Skylight if you’re using 3DS Max.

I find that most modeler’s weakness isn’t so much in their actual modeling technique, it is that they don’t know how to show off their work. A good render that is well lit will make a model shine.

Other than that, nice work on the models. They would make good additions to the Freelancer universe and fit right in from a stylistic perspective. Exactly the type of Freelancer models I like.

Couple old lighting examples I have lying around.

Thanks for teh advice, I used Skylight and Daylight system for this one. Now you should be able to see the ship easily.

If only they looked as good in the game as you’re able to make them look in your renders Why, freelancers lighting sucks.

My latest model, the Nahel Argama-class Assault Landing Ship from Gundam Unicorn. Colors have been militarized a bit more than she appears in the anime, and I’ve added her name plates and and some random combat achievement markings. She’s 6628 triangles with three 2048x2048 textures. Hope you guys like.

damn good!!

The model is very nice, there’s just one thing I don’t like though:

The texture is too colored, but that’s probably just my opinion.

Niceee…btw I am wondering that there are tons of ships from SW, ST, B5, BSG but only few LOGH, Gundam, Macross, and none Battletech

I know at least one mod with 14 different ships from Robotech.

I know that there are Robotech ships in NSU…btw the Tokugawa is missing :(…but I never seen a Legend of Galactic Heroes or Battletech ship in a FL mod…

I would kill for a good Macross game. Robotech Battlecry from awhile ago was pretty good. Too bad the Macross games that get created and sold in Japan will never be localized and released here. I hate Harmony Gold for the extensive legal douchebaggery they pull, one of which is forever preventing Macross anything from being (legally) released stateside.

Look down… at the sig… I have quite a few more 8-) last year went nuts converting a fair few of them… they still sit converted but un-HP’d if anyones interested

Some ION cannon model I made. No texture yet.
I’d like some comments.
