Update...
Don't have much to say at this point. It's still evolving.

The engine section is done for the most part. Now I'm moving to the main body of the ship.

Damn! Nice work!

It's starting to look like something.Yeah, a Binford 9000 vibrator! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I really like the yellow version of the engines. Is the one with the flare an afterburner of some sort?


BTW, people thought original stuff didn't get enough replies at SFM This place up and died, by the looks of this thread!

Actually the other pics don't have the flares because I just haven't felt like rendering them. I'm not sure if I'll keep the flares or not.

I'm not too concerned with getting replies or not. Either it happens or it doesn't.:D

[EBOLII]

Only 3 stars?....what?.....Ah 4 is better!


Lookin good

[skyhawk223]

Fairly massive looking drive section. What kind of shapes are you thinking of for the nose?

[Drakath]

oh... that's a cool spaceship.

[XFozzboute]

Fairly massive looking drive section. What kind of shapes are you thinking of for the nose?
I have an idea but I can't really describe it. I was also thinking of maybe leaving it with a blunt nose. I kind of like the look of it that way.

Drakath & Eboli: Thanks. :)

[Chris B]

finally i can see where this is going....and i like!

[phish]

Me too. I ahve always liked my freighters with bad ass engines.

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
I've started to throw on some textures. Ignore the one on the center section, I was just testing an idea. I've also added a front to this thing. I kind of like it. Just needes a little tweeking and detail.

It looks like a very sweet start. I cannot wait to see her/it in the end!

[Melvin the Dork]

Damn fine work. I really love that it doesn't look like some recycled sci-fi ship like a few scratch ships I have seen. You do great work, pat yourself on the back.

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE..
Finished the bottom detail.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu249.jpg
Starting to work on the bridge and living area.

[Proximo]

Hm, this is shaping up quite nicely. :)

[Chris B]

ooooo!

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE....
What you see here is the beginning of one of the versions of this ship. This will be for UEG Medical. There will also be a civilian version UPS/FEDEX kind of thing. And a military version.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu277.jpg
I've put the windows in the bridge/habitat and R&R section.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu278.jpg

[Chris B]

it is great as always, but:

i doubt that the military would share their vessels with others. it would be far too easy to train an act of piracy on a military transport if you can train on a civilian feighter before, don't you think?

of course they sell the hummer too, but that's different

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
Working on more textures.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu301.jpg
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu302.jpg

[XFozzboute]

I'm gonna try and focus on finishing this before I start on anything else.
UPDATE...
I've put in one of the cargo doors. Since the cargo/troops/casualties have to get in somehow. This one holds one support craft. There will be another one on the top that will hold two or more support craft. One will be on deck and the others in the maintenance bay.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu313.jpghttp://www.primscrwpro.com/myu314.jpg
Here I've placed the UEG shuttle I'm working on. I don't know if I'll design Support craft specificly for this ship or just use a redressed version of the shuttle.

http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu317.jpg
I forgot to mention that the for pipes on the side of the lower nose are not weapons. I had nothing in mind for then other than I thought it looked cool. I can use them as reverse thrusters perhaps.

[Elowan]

Veddy nice. Any release plans? My fleet needs a hospital ship - it's getting its bootie kicked.

[XFozzboute]

No I wont be releasing this because it's for my own universe and I don't want any one screwing with continuity besides myself. Not unless they're willing to pay.:lol:

[plum]

Wow. :)

[XFozzboute]

Thanks.
UPDATE...
Finished up the detail inside the landing bay.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu319.jpg
Here's how it look and I did some detail work on the tip of the nose.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu320.jpg

[Chris B]

sweetos!

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
Started to work on the upper landing and maintenance bay. I'll have to make some kind of support vehicle that will be able to move the ships on to and off of the landing bay. The shuttles won't actually land on their belly like that, it will have some landing pads or wheels.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu321.jpghttp://www.primscrwpro.com/myu322.jpg:nuts:

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
I've done some work on the inside of the upper cargo/landing bay.

[FutureDarkness]

wow!

[Elowan]

Mighty fine! I can smell the iodine!!:)

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
Work on the inside of landing bay 2 is coming along.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu332.jpg
The second pic shows how it looks with a shuttle in there and I added a little blue dude for scale. :)
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu333.jpg

[FutureDarkness]

Very Nice ;)

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE....
Did a little work on some alternate textures for a small to medium delivery company. I'm gonna try to dirty it up a little bit.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu334.jpghttp://www.primscrwpro.com/myu335.jpg
More work done the interior.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu336.jpghttp://www.primscrwpro.com/myu337.jpg

[XFozzboute]

UPDATE...
Some very minor work done. The heat just makes me too sick to want to do anything.
Another look outside to see how the landing bay looks and I slaped on a name for the ship.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu338.jpg
Another look at the back of the landing bay, I think I'm done here because I never actually ment to get a good look inside I just wanted something to look at when the door opens up.
http://www.primscrwpro.com/myu339.jpg
A look at the front of the bay as I build the part that will lift the platform up and down.

A sample of the first 5 names I want to use.

robert smith? i'll bet that medical freighter carries the cure. (slaps knee) :D

excellent work. the forward bay door area is amazing.

[XFozzboute]

:roll: It's definately not named after him. Not a fan of The Cure. I'm actually trying to name this ship after actual doctors.:nuts:

[021310061976]

yeah, i know. i just couldn't resist it though.

[Elowan]

Name suggestion: S.N. Fyodorov

Dear (deceased) friend and colleage of mine.

That's what I'd name it were it mine to do so. :)

Looking forward to more on this in the pace of time.

[tvdoug]

I've been lurking here for a bit -- VERY nice model. It's got a bit of the SW Rebellion look and feel to it, and also a very nice original model. :)

[BonzaiGopher]

More nice stuff here!!!

Dunno how I missed these threads of yours - they're great!

Cheers,

Bonzai Gopher
