NICE!!!
nothing more to say really.
keep it up!

#342

Yup…I agree. Youve got some great progress here…makes me want to start modeling ASAP.:thumbsup:

#343

hi Dimi…this designs are too awesome man!..your scene is going to be beautiful i can bet so! im very fascinated looking at your WIP is just so cool…if i see something i dont like ill tell u…but now all looks fine to me

#344

Now that is one nice lander.

#345

Yeah… good concept and design… just one thing don’t agree me too much… the difference of scale between the lander and ships… I know… the lander is normally big because the ships are inside… but that 2 sorts of ships are assembly by the same people… then, I think that will have more little parts, screws, bolts, etc on the lander…

I don’t know exactly if you understand what I want to explain… my english is always confused :shrug:

…and for the modeling… it’s always perfect nutman :bounce:

#346

WOW, incredibly details, i love your last rendering…dunno how i overlooked that thread, i won’t do it again, i promise :thumbsup:

#347

You’re making it very hard to come up with anything to crit… But Lemog has a point about more nuts and bolts perhaps… on the shell of this evil lander. Otherwise, well, even the brownish-yellow -> blue gradient overlay looks good :smiley:

#348

Okay I’m late to the game on checking out your entry, but let me say great work. I really like the colors in the concept sketches, especially how the colors evolved.

The designs are excellent and the models are too. Like most others I can’t find anything that looks really bad. Only thing I have noticed, and forgive me if you’re not finished, is the lander door and opening. The door needs to be thicker and the same with the wall of the opening. But I don’t think you are finished.

Looking very good.

And he keeps modelling, running, amazing people here and there! STOP IT!:stuck_out_tongue:
Very nice progress on the Lander. :thumbsup:

hey dimi, something just cropped up in my mind. it seems that would be an awful waste of metal to deploy 4 sparrows. maybe you could squeeze in more. like a front and back thing, sparrow facing away from each other… and ermm… some kinda blast mechanism to prevent them from burning each other in the butt. Just a thought, cos its a really cool design, i just wished there were more sparrows on the 2 wings that extend.

Also, some kinda landing mechanism, how is the sphere suppose to land flat? the crew is gonna get a tough ride if it slams straight into the ground. lol.

Anyhow, just some suggestions. probably you have not work on those areas that i’ve mentioned.

:bounce:

#351

Hey Dimi, nice progrss on lander model. Only thing is that opening and that door is very sharp.
I think You need to add some detail on that area, or maybe you are still working on this model.
Oterwise it is simply amazing:thumbsup:

#352

I’m not entirely happy with sparrow’s landing gear - it looks like inspired by a bird’s legs, but does not exactly fits the fighter. I’d make it lower, slightly ‘lighter’ (less bulky).

#353

Overall a wonderful piece of work…I quess the others here brought up a couple minor crits to help you out with…I would say add more,or pack in more sparrows,it’s what DOM Suggested,and something I thought of almost immeadiatly as well…Possibly a few crooked areas,or dents,a bit more messed up,a few deformations on the hull.A little more detail in various areas…Make it a bit more “Non mechanical”…Less perfect ( A taste thing,nothing wrong on your part)…In any case you do have a wonderful piece,the idea is very good,an interesting model for sure,I like the quanity,and best yet the quality matches it…Keep it rolling in…:arteest:

#354

hmm
id modify the mesh to have somekind of “sparow slot”

the launch bay takes u twice as much surface area than the sparows
wich make them look like flies. tbh :\

especialy when u compare it to the front door …
wich is even bigger

#355

Hey Lemog …nice to read from u friend…You are right about the details on Lander in order to show that comes from tha same technology…i have some more work to do about it…thanks friend…:thumbsup:

@ Grimreaper1981…thanks friend…:slight_smile:

@ cattledog, terraarc, madshooter … thanks…don’t worry the part of the door is not even worked yet…i am just trying to show where the front bay door will be …

@ JamesMK roger …roger …or " OK BUCK" :thumbsup: …i am gonna squiiizzz my head more there.

@ Dom , Virtuoso, Vootlooz …Thanks guys…well maybe u are right…maybe i have to utilize the Side - Bay space more …either more Sparrows…or a smarter bay …just not to waste so much metal…let me see what i can do…Michael …u are right about making it less perfect…most of that part i am counting to be done when i will start texturing all the models…so we will talk about it again then …thanks guys …really apreciated (sorry for my Engrish)

@ azazel…thanks man, how are u ?..about the legs of the sparrow…for the bird look , i wanted them to look like bird legs…regarding the size of them (fat or slim) …i had different opinions about it …i came to the conclusion to make them a little fat and bulky just to show that they can keep the burden and …in an animation test i did it was kinda funny(lol)…

@ KoryH, rattlesnake, Powell, SONIC-X , Cgstripe, essencedesign…thanks guys for your kind words :bounce:
thanks CG Bubbles …most helpfull …let me see what i can do about your obervations.:bounce:
