Aegis:2375 - A Collaborative Science Fiction Project


#241

actually, im strongly considering writing a chase scene involving a big-rig and a h-cell sport car (the one i recently asked you to reproduce). i’d have the rig driven by human counter-agent down an earth highway (with traffic AI completley shut down for maximum carnage) smashing cars and smaller trucks out of the way whilst being persued by the h-cell with a special forces sqauddie leaning out of the side, firing the most obscenly large gun at the big-rig to stop it, the car would be driven by another special forces member… hmm…might have to actually write an outline for this scene…hehehe [insert evil laughter]

oh yeh… good job mark!! :thumbsup: hehe


#242

Heheheh!! :bounce:

The Big Rig plants are here… so i will start a wip on this tomorrow.

Once again Mark… :thumbsup:


#243

Thanx guy’s.

Dene: If u do a chase outline i can do the storyboarding for it if u want…

Zag: cant wait to see it being made…


#244

yeh? coooool! ill try and do that this week! (i also have to throw together a new goddam PC…bloody computers!:sad: )

but yes… ill do an outline and a few sketches and stuff…


#245

just remember, the closer the fairings are to the trailer(or to put it another way, the longer the fairings(aerodynamic panels)) the less the turn radius is… trust me, i’ve crunched one or two in my time :argh:


#246

haha!:applause:… the fairings could be adjustable… id imagine theyd have to do so anyway considering the size of the big-rig and the size of the roads and available turning area!..

just an idea.:smiley:

Ermm…Greetings guys ( not the most original intro…but will work for now heheh…consider it a wip …ok moving on…)

After a short talk with Mr.Dene over here :stuck_out_tongue:
I decided to involve with all of you to this project.
I say , its interesting, and we all can show a nice reel together if we do it right.heheh

So…A few words bout me, I am Albert and i am from Greece ( we host the olympics here! )
And I started doing work for this “mysterious” moon found that holds unique tech-powers ( actually its a very well written script Dene Btw ).

Here is my idea of how the moon-of-power can look ( Btw…when are you gonna give it a name? Perhaps…Albert 2344 ? …just a thought :stuck_out_tongue: )

I hope Deve won’t mind for taking a first step without…his approval

Check it and tell me what you think…:slight_smile:

Its done using 3Dsmax 6.0 and PS for some post-edit .
I Believe i can install some human-tech platform here …if needed afterwards.

Whell…( * Getting nervous ) …Hit me hard…i hope you like it!


#248

this looks cool! :thumbsup: i think ill have to incorporate this idea that the moon is on fire into the concept! very good!

thanks albert! im quite happy with the outline i have written, im going to work on it some more and develop it a little.

im considering calling it just that! haha! really.:smiley: this looks really cool!!!

at most this will just be a landing platform (the rest will be underground)

excellent work Albert!!!

BTW: i notice you have put the project title on the image.:thumbsup: to avoid any confusion with other things titled ‘Aegis’ (there are a lot) it would probably be best to use the full project name ‘Aegis:2375’


#249

i dont mind!!:thumbsup:

when people go ahead and do things like this it shows to me that they are interestd in this project… that makes me very happy, seeing as this is something i REALLY want to do…more than anything i can think of.

Four thrusters in x wing formation and moved away from the main body section.

goooood mornin mr Mark! (well…6am for me anyway)

im just about awake enough to say hi, good job+:thumbsup: and, C&C after i get my nocturnal self some sleep!


#252

Goodmorning ppl,

After seeing only Dene’s comments on the “mysterious-moon” i guess nobody liked it :sad:
So…i would appreciate it, if you could give me some feedback of the reasons, in order to improve it. Btw. in order to accurate model anything, the concept designers are called out to draw imagery from the following views : TOP,FRONT,LEFT and one perspective view with minor rotation, just to compare results.Another thing to keep in mind is to actually follow the same size on all 4 scetches, and it would be ideal to actually propose a texture painting on it, just to give the 3D modeller a general reference of how would you like to present your idea.

Goodmorning from Greece ,

-Albert-


#253

nah it looks awesome, however the firey glow, you seem to only be able to see it around the edges ,and if the planet was burning all over you’d expect to see more flames, but thats just my opinion.
Keep up the good work guys this projects comming along nicley:thumbsup: cant wait to see that car chase


#254

Hiya maxFX,

I did look at your work and appoligize for not commenting straight back. Sorry :slight_smile:

I like the look of it and the colouring. Reminds me of the evil planet in the Fifth Element.
I only skimmed across the description of the moon.

I have a few ideas and if you want me to do some concepts. I looked at your design and imagined deep glowing crevasses, which gives the planet its fantastic firey glow you have. On the surface a huge fortified mining colony, huge bridges over the massive canyons.

But thats only my opinion ( pinch of salt ) :slight_smile:

Get back to me dude would love to help.
Mark


#255

Mark : Wow, i really liked that “fortified colony” stuff, it would be great to have a scenery like this, if that goes along with dene’s script hehe.

Well,can you maybe…if you have scetch a very basic outline of the fortified front? ( that will double also as the lab that humans do research)?. If so, i would apperiaciate it…i really admire your work , and if you put a hand we can really do “magic” :).

Additionally, we do not have any clues as of how the alien technology found inside the moon will look like…i mean…will have tubs for techy parts…will have sharp edges…will it based on liquid traffic to power-up various components? Answer DEEENE :slight_smile:


#256

Hiya maxFX,

when i get a chance i will do a colony base outlay ( Dene’s approval of course :slight_smile: )
This is a concept of your moon hope you dont mind.
as for the alien tech underneath. I remember a Dr Who episode where the planet had a ship at the centre of it and had become a planet/moon because over the many years had attracted space debris because the hull was made of Dark matter/anti matter. I know i am ranting haha!!

morning people…(i’ve just got up)

i think most people were asleep Albert :slight_smile: there is quite a mixture of timezones on this site.
there is absolutely nothing wrong with the moon image you have done, it is, infact, excellent:thumbsup:

i havnt really developed the moon yet, so any input is welcome!!

not as yet, but thats not all that important at this stage.

Albert, i allways answer posts here as soon as i can, but sometimes i need sleep / food / social life! haha! so please dont be offended when it takes me several hours to post a reply!:thumbsup: i really appreciate your input on this project!!

what do you need that for? haha!! go for it mark. ill post some architectural sketches today, may help. just keep the style in-line with what we allready have of the human stuff.:thumbsup: btw: love the ‘mash-up’!!!

thats essentially whats happened here, though this ‘weapon’ isnt made of dark, or anti-matter, its just been there for a hell of a long time! haha!

kick arse guys!! good job!! keep it up!:thumbsup:#

right...i need to go eat/shower/wake up properly......

#258

here are those architectural sketches i was on about…(human / USM)
ive added trees to show scale


#259

lookin good so far…

to be honest i dont like the rigid lines on them…
but hey what do i know?! lol


#260

since Albert (maxFX) has requested a progress report for this project, i thought i may as well make it a semi-regular event. as soon as i assemble this report (should be soonish) i will post it here as an attatchment. after that, i will make reports of our progress every 2 weeks.
