OMG

I think your work here should have proper safety labels or signs so consumers are well-informed about potential dangers.

Wait for me, guys!

stuff like this always kinda discourages me aswell. makes u see what a noob you truely are . i mean it should be inspiring, but cmon.... this is just too crazy

Haha well after making a number of these ships before you might find you start getting into routine, and the well laid out plans really help.
Having Fun with the Texturing The Scrollwork is coming along slowly as expected. Main hull texture is still only in basic stages.

Oh well. .. yeah. . ..it looks pretty basic to me. . . . C'mon! You need to step it up a bit!

When it's all finished. .. what's next? Are you going to model the bottle to put it in?

i bet he's gonna model a huge city with half a million 500k+poly mansions, and in one room of one of these houses there's a bottle with this ship in it

david_h · 15 Dec 2011, 16:03

Could be. . .or he could model the entire battle of Trafalgar. With a little Lord Nelson Standing on the bridge!

axeonalias · 17 Dec 2011, 21:46

Haha as if! wouldnt mind taking on a first rate for a project but man theres alot of detail on those ships. Maybe ill give the bottle a try when shes ready
Added many more lines and coiled ropes, Launches are mapped and seperated from the main mesh , will soon be ready to sail them both.

axeonalias · 19 Dec 2011, 12:12

Added Most of the sails, Will be adding more Staysails even though the sim does not support more than 6 sails, Will also have different sail setups for different weather conditions. New Helm added along with Cannon maps

Here are a few in Game shots (Still unbaked)

Nice!

Tobobo · 19 Dec 2011, 16:13

Would the sails be that reflective?

Apart from that a friend asked if you only make replica models or do you 'computer modes too'? (her words verbatim)

She was shocked to find out that it wasn't a physical model.

The sails are satin

This is a very luxurious model.

iichiversii · 19 Dec 2011, 21:39

irwanwr · 19 Dec 2011, 21:45

that reminds me of my classic Sid Meier's Pirates Large Frigate
beautiful, Marius.

unigami · 20 Dec 2011, 11:12

This is so impressive! Regarding the "in game" images, what game is this?

It's a master piece of naval drawing.

Thanks guys, I guess those sails are abit reflective, Ill try get them to behave abit in game.
Haha hey compare my shots to some of the HSM Surprise photo`s...theres still a long way to go!
Im using 3ds max to render, post production? lol straight from max.
The Sim is Vehicle Sim Framework, does any type of moving vehicle, well almost

Did much work on the interiors over the last 2 days, Textureing, Refitting, and modeling extras. Looking for books right now that depict the furnishings of any of these frigates or period ships in general, pretty hard to find.
