Yeah, watch out on copyright, especially with Fox. I hear they tried to sue a program for making fun of them. If I recall correctly, it was their program (most likey, though I'm not sure on this point, it was The Simpsons :p), so they are rather lawyer filled

I'm attempting to model the planet express ship, because im bored and don't want to study for finals, and im finding (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/payndz2/planetblueprints.html")http://www.geocities...blueprints.html(/url) to be extremely useful. It's blueprints of the planet express ship. thumbs up
------------------ skeptic
All right, I made a model of the Planet Express ship in Wings3D, and it's about as close to the real thing as you're gonna get wink The reason I'm sayign this is that if you'd like to use it, I'd be glad to let you.
Took me a really long time (you don't even want to know), becasue it's my first real model.
It also is not textured yet, and the pic is only a screen shot of the default view of it in Wings3D, so it looks crappy. When I get Strata/Bryce working (have been having some comp problems), I'll make a better render.
Until then, check it out here: (url="http://"http://www.deviantart.com/view/4775047/")http://www.deviantar...m/view/4775047/(/url)
Nice looking ship! I'm no expert, though.... If you post this where the graphics gurus hang out, over at the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&forum;=EV+Image+Gallery&number;=56")EV Image Gallery(/url), you'd probably get good feedback & advice.
Thanks trowel! I'd post it, but it's not worth maknig a thumb for, I should just wait until the final render is done. ------------------ skeptic

Well if you send it to me sometime in a compatible format, I'll render it with Strata Pro's toon renderer... could look cool. Tell me if you want me to and I'll give you my email, I'm not putting it on a webboard unless I have to, it's spam free right now.

Before I send it out, I'm gonna try to finish (i.e. do a better job) texturing, and maybe test out some renders. (url="http://"http://www.deviantart.com/view/4798608")http://www.deviantart.com/view/4798608(/url) I did that UV mapping only in Wings, the textures made in Photoshop. Actually, this is my first model that I made without any help, and the first texturing (sigh, it looks kinda obvious, I know, but those are the colors. I dunno, they look off to me.)
Azdara, that'd be difficult. I've found that Strata tends to lose texturing information when importing from other formats. Or maybe just 3DS. I dunno. I used to have Wings, but it was acting strange...I might redownload it.
iamwallflower: Yeah, it does look a little off...except for the back, which looks great.
I'm getting an inspiration to download Wings and start modelling...

orcaloverbri: I really don't want to redo the textures, but if someone does, I can send them the UV Mapping file to tinker with, and I ca re-apply it.

How's that look?
This is my first time with Bryce, I'm still tinkering with most parts of that pic.
The front needs to be round and the bottom is a huge dimple. Other than that it looks great.

Wrong.

From a user's point of view, much better. Of course, that's the only point of view I have in terms of graphics...
EDIT: 666th post!

Thanks bri.
Didja notice you just passed 666 posts?
Anyways, thanks for support.

You're quite welcome.
Holy smackoroonies ( I make up my own words when I'm bored...)! Must find the 666th post.
Actually, the one I had responded to was it :redface:

I downloaded a plug that allows exporting of UV mapped models from wings into .obj format, which strata can then import. I never actually got it to work (cause I can't get wings to work properly, as I have a 1 button mouse and whenever I change the prefs wings crashes) but you probably could, with the UV map intact. Anyhow, that can be thought of later.
Tell me if you're interested and I'll check the name of the plug, or send it to you.
Or something.
Strata can't import .obj files. It can, however, import DXF files, which Wings can export to.
