38 Gun Frigate L`Aurore

axeonalias

Thanks Unigami, these ships where designed starting from the guns, the deck height was designed only to fit the guns and make them workable, hence why they ceiling is so low, the rest comes after the guns. I believe that the 2 aft guns where stowed up against the port as to make more space in the effected cabins, those being the Captains bed chamber, The Coach room and the Great Cabin.
Completed texturing inside, still need to map and texture the walls in max and Gimp. Interior altogether is 52k Poly`s

The top pic shows only the Lantern Lights at night, next pic shows with Daylight.

Thanks, Sure Irwanwr copy away , nice to see that pic, spent many hours on that game
Baking these textures is a long process, Ive now Baked over 23 Texture AO maps along with the 23 Texture maps, some AO maps can take over 2 hours, and with a 22 hour power out yesterday it really doesnt help, here a few in game screenies:

hi Marius,

Some props from Below Decks, Each Item has its own UV maps and Textures.

More work on the Textures, The exterior is pretty much ready apart from the figurehead and the gunport textures, struggeling to get the same Yellow.
Dropped the Exterior AO by 20% as the ship did look abit Dark in game.

Still have to hang the Lanterns and Firebuckets, along with making the Furled sails.

irwanwr

i love the ship
feels like i'm going to jump into the screen
have you ever made a tutorial on making the hull somewhere, Marius?

axeonalias

Thanks irwanwr, I think I did ages ago but I cant remember, are you needing some help?

Added the Furled sails and Fixed some more textures, Found out that the Upper Deadeyes where "accidently" Deleted 2 weeks ago, Lucky I have a different version saved everyday so I could go and find them

well, i might interested to learn and to make small sailing ships after seeing your gorgeous models say, something like a sloop or schooner. perhaps a royal sloop

PS: i saved the first image from the post above . that might be a good calming wallpaper to have on the desktop

axeonalias

Great, well find something you like and we can take it from there.
Launches are complete and fully functioning, Masts and rigging can be removed, Last pic shows how they can be removed from the ship as well.

irwanwr

where can you find the blueprint or sort of that for the ship, Marius?

axeonalias

Well Ive found most of mine online, and a few others Ive found and scanned original drawings ( more recent ships ) at museums and clubs. Hobby kits usually have good drawings as well.

A Sloop like this perhaps?
