Insertcoin's turn!

Ahaha... guess what I knocked up in an hour...

To my horror, it looks like the Van Uber and F9000 feisar crossed!:dizzy

[andy]

Nice to see so much creativity.:)

Haven't been able to see them on my psp :( but Ill see them once I hook it up to my pc :)
gimme 10 mins and Ill tell you what I think.:+
...back again :)
Pretty good effort.:)
It kinda looks like the spaceships off star wars that fight the big walking ones. Is this your first design on skethup and what do you think of it? If you want any help just ask and keep practicing cos once you get the hang of it your only limit will be your imagination. :+
btw, love the gun idea

[Zerow]

Very nice mash-up of the F9000 Van-Uber and Feisar! :+

Indeed, it reminds me of the snowspeeders from The Empire Strikes Back.

[rdmx]

Yeah, first design on sketchup.:D Well, the first one I took some effort in.
Hey Andy, if I design something on one side of my craft, how do I mirror it so it is on the opposite side as well?

Examples attached.

[andy]

As before I cant see the pics atm (on my psp). Ill take a look tommorow.:)

Its a bit complex. you could send it to me over msn and Ill do it for or walk you through it. What I would suggest is working in squares, cubes, cuboids and rectangles. Thats what I do. Also, I plan it out in 2D on the floor then use the follow me/push-pull button. Tell me if that helps. :+

[rdmx]

I found the answer - copy and paste and flip.

[andy]

okie dokie :+

[rdmx]

i'm back!

This time I've made some weird purple Qirex lookalike :dizzy
Knocked this up in an hour :D

How did you get the canope to be partially alpha'd (clear)?

[rdmx]

When u paint the shapes, dropdown menu
select translucent
select your colour
alternatively, select create new material and change the opacity.
hope that helps!

[q_dmc12]

Thx, I'll try it later:beer

New imade - group photo between old and new - note the silly 2097 textures - and the draw distance? Stolen from 2097 as well! :D

Very cool :+ :D I was going to do this while back but I have had loads of revision. I get round to it after all the tests. Love the qirex :D Keep up the good work :)

[rdmx]

heheh, Andy, its mid-year test time over here too :(

[swift killer]

Yet another twin-hulled ship - it's yellow :D
With glorious anti-aliasing the edges look nice and smooth. I finally figured out how to do shadows :D

The purple strips on the bottom of the craft are like anti-gravity strips. Either that, or they attach the craft to the MAG-STRIPS seen in Pulse.
