Great mix of Tau'ri and Lantean design Zake. I love hybrid designs so nice one.

I like the shape of the carrier especially Lantean_Canuck, although I'm still not entirely sure why they'd ever need a ship to carry Daedalus class ships and the like, perhaps you explained that previously and I missed it though.



I'd personally like to have a go at detailing it if that's alright. Like I said before I've been a fan of the design since I saw it as it's one of the really original designs we've had in here.

Here's the first in a series of renders I'm making comprising my entire fleet. This is basically meant to be almost like they're lined up in a museum or something, on display. I intend on making a more action oriented image, albeit with the still untextured ships.

Nice ships there scorpius, are those all yours?

The models themselves are all mine. The Ares is being built from Bar's design and the Artemis is based on a design posted on SFM by bagera4000, although only the basic shape is from the original design, everything else will be my own doing.

Mmmmm interesting, you know what, you should put a daedalus class ship in there for scale reference. So we know how big those are

sure will be more than happy to let you do that. i myself am not good at greebleing and last time I tried my comp crashed and I lost the work I did on it. I can do the textureing but like just about everyone else on here I dont like to do it also when and if I ever get done I have plans on making a plastic version of Hammond to hang from my ceiling scorp I will send you the latest version of hammond to you tonight. and thank you for voulunteering your time and effourt to do that for me.

very nice ship you got there. to me it looks like you got some inspiration from a russian akula class sub it looks good thou, question; does it have a cloaking device on it? would kinda fit the design imho.

@ Lantean
very nice job on that ship. and boberth. that ship is massive! my ship is about 1.5X the size of deady and my ship is a spec on his landing platform

Seriously...you guys need to do a group render of as many ships together in one big scene....

[scootes]

now thats a nice ship! althou the pic seems abit unclearlike the jpeg did not save right. couple questions for you. is it a tau-ri ship or altearin?, what kind of armaments does it have and can we get a brief backstorie on it as to better asses when it and why it was made. either way I like that design very good job on it

and btw welcome to the comunity and congrats on your first post

It'll be my pleasure mate.

I've actually just started having a go at texturing the Icarus. I think I'm getting close to a colouring I like, I just can't find any decent panelling I like and whenever I've tried to make my own in the past they've always come out looking like crap. If anybody has any tips for that please let me know.

Well the Icarus is basically the same size as the Daedalus, it's essentially just an Asgard upgraded Daedalus built from scratch
