Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0  | Kuralis Class Escort Carrier Hey guys... I decided to model the Kuralis class Escort Carrier from the Manga GalForce in order to learn Sketchup before I get into modeling my own designs. I did a test render with the drive pods lit at low power. So far my first real complete 3D project is going well. I never knew how time consuming and addictive this was....YOU GUYS SHOULD HAVE WARNED ME!!!!  The design part of the build is easy..But one thing I see in the render that I don't understand is why are the cylindrical surfaces (i.e. engine pods) rendering geometrically instead of smoothed? Questions about Sketchup, comments and suggestions all desired.. Here is what I have so far: |

 Next time post an image so you can give your audience a ****ing clue as to what they are looking at! I mean if you're gonna be an attention whore you might as well do it right!   BTW; it's Gall Force and the anime dates back to the mid 80's. | |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | Thanks...The lighting FX have been frustrating...I almost have the engine glow the way I want it....a little more tweeking at it should be a little better. I went from zero 3D skills to this in about two weeks of playing with Sketchup...The learning curve for the software is really short...but mastering the details...is an ongoing process. |
