Myshella Drake Caldari V.O.F.L IRON CORE H E L I C O N	Posted - 2010.01.03 13:01:00 - [1] Here is my own take on what a Sisters of Eve Science/exploration ship might look like. I know a lot of explorers including myself would welcome a new exploration ship class so i decided to design my own. Final concept: Linkage Completed model: Youtube\|\|EVEfiles A little Composite: Linkage I Wanted to go for a slightly aquatic look but also pull in design elements from each races ship architecture. The model was created in Lightwave 9.5. Not the greatest 3D software but its all i know how to use so far. It was created for my final assignment in a multimedia course i completed earlier this year. This was my first time Texturing using UV maps. It turned out pretty well considering i had about a week to texture the entire craft and was feeling around in the dark half the time. I would have liked to put together full stats and bonuses but I enjoy the design aspect more and there are already some very nice ideas out there by people like Nova Fox. Though feel free to suggest ideas for names, stats, bonuses etc. The stuff written on the concept was just a placeholder really. Also, here is the short presentation i did to accompany the model. It shows off some of the individual parts a little more. Presentation: Youtube Enjoy Myshella

But SOE is (as far as I know) mostly gallente. And the result is also looking quite gallente. Very, very good work, I wouldn't mind if they implemented the ship using your model. Thanks. I didnt show all the screenshots though as it had to be around 2 minutes but i did look at alot of gallente ships.

But I don't think we'll see it ingame. I guess, if ccp wants community to undertake ship modelling, which is the most interesting and creative part in development work, they would open a contest. The ship is however very nice. Sorry for other destructive words, but... If you may look ingame into Sisters of EVE market activities they are suppliers of Polytextitles and Oxygen like helper of poor people. They don't have shares in production of ships, so the idea Sisters of EVE does have their own exploration ship is curious. Maybe another corp may have such an exploration ship. It looks like Amarr design mostly, so try find a more suiting corp. However, hope you're not stop modelling even if the ship won't go ingame. Your work is nice (private opinion). And look for official contests I never really intended it to be put ingame at all, though that would be pretty damn awesome . Its just my take on what a ship of this class might look like. And also to raise interest in this type of ship and inspire ideas enough that CCP will seriously consider making one themselves. Sisters of eve are a very good corp to manufacture these ships. They already have the most advanced probe technology and they are interested in science, especially the eve gate itself. Its very possible that they would want to learn as much about wormholes and Sleeper technology in order to bring them closer to their god. idk just an idea. Might want to read this. Linkage Originally by: Callista Sincera edit: Oh and more on topic I'd have to say that any exploration ship would probably be very lightweight to prevent wormholes from collapsing. Your ship looks really cool, but it also looks pretty heavy to me. Anyway, definitely a cool piece of art. Thats a very good point. It actually slipped my mind completely when i made that concept

Overall the modeling is done very well. The flow and profile isnt argressive which is good thing but the vertical plane has some bad flow to it going very sharply up and twice on the bottom. Great Composition and colors however hide most of the annoyance of bad flow cept twoards the bridge area where it looks glued on instead of built into the ship. Who knows maybe a few more tweaks and you can make it a tech 3 ship instead :) keep up the good work. also +watch'd you on DA. I know what you mean about the flow. I really would have loved more time to work on it but i had about 4 weeks from the first brainstorms to the completed model. I had some other ideas where the vertical bits were at more of a 45 degree angle, shorter and on both sides but i had to ditch anymore changes because i just didn't have the time. Free feel to add my ship in your thread and thanks for the watch
Myshella Drake Caldari V.O.F.L IRON CORE H E L I C O N	Posted - 2010.01.03 20:00:00 - [5] Originally by: Nova Fox Oh can you make videos? Ill I ask is for very very simple models (IE a moving triangle pryamid with a ring around it made to look like a breifing room ordeal) would be neat for my idea thread. I still have the 3d software to make renders but i dont have any editing software like premier or after effects on my computer
Myshella Drake Caldari V.O.F.L IRON CORE H E L I C O N	Posted - 2010.01.05 06:00:00 - [6] Originally by: Herzog Wolfhammer If you could send me the model file (3DS I think or convert to XBF or Blender project) I got an XNA program for WinX that can load the XBF models and it can be flown around, complete with "eve style" camera. I would like to send the model file but its a bit of a mess tbh. most of the textures are huge and not optimized properly. After the stressful time i went through just to complete it on time im not really prepared to go back and fix it all right at the moment. Your idea sounds very interesting though, ill keep that in mind if i decide to improve my model.
Myshella Drake Caldari V.O.F.L IRON CORE H E L I C O N	Posted - 2010.01.06 13:15:00 - [7] Originally by: David Grogan nice looking ship and very well presented (though u misspelt valuable in the presentation video u spelt it "vaulable") ............and dev's or gm's reading this thread it gets my vote for as a good model to use for the soe exploration ship hahah yeah i wrote those in about 5mins and had to hand it in straight after it rendered Thanks for the compliments
