Shot Of The Month #1

OK, let's see if this works out... once a month, i'll post a graphic from or related to The Great Conflict. This month's graphic is the Tickleopian Y-Wing.

Yeah, it is kind of badly in need of interesting colors or textures. Otherwise it's like from some 1994 computer game like 'Lunicus' in which you play with complex(for their time) models of tanks and spaceships and stuff, but they have no texture. However, I don't know what graphics program you are using, so I can't help you with that.

It's still quite good.

thing is, cafall, i've looked at that site time and time again and it still doesn't tell me a thing about making textures...
BTW, i've changed that flat dark blue color, but i'm not saying how it's changed... i'll save that for another SOM or something, maybe you'll have to wait until TGC is out, wouldn't that be annoying for you :p?

If you have Photoshop, just play around with it. A simple grey cloud filter can make a decent texture(as long as the sides match up). I think I might make a texture tutorial... What program are you using?

Apparently, common sense isn't so common...

Come to think of it, it is pretty cool. Of course, I never do stuff like that 'cause I say, "WELL, THEN IT CAN'T LAND CONVENTIONALLY..." Hm. Perhaps this has opened a new spectrum of potential ships to me.

It is a simple matter to have it land. Just say it lands similar to the Slave I with its engines down.

Nice pic Divals. Any chance of having these pics more frequently?

Their are links at the top. Did you see them?
To make a good, simple metal plating texture, make the color of your texture dark gray. Then scan in some architectural floor plans and use them as a bump map.
Or you could just visit Saber Studios.

yeah, i'm using photoshop. or if you mean for 3D graphics, infini-d 3.1.

The Y-wing is normally starship-based and locks into a frame similar to a TIE fighter. I think there's multi-purpose frames for different fighters that can't handle landing gear, and they (the frames) can be used on planets too.

probably not, unless i can do more than one ship or whatever per month. this isn't something you just do in a few minutes, j0. plus there's constraints of space on my server... (i don't know how much space i have, and i don't wanna find out :))

Well, they were originally "tickles", when i was 5 or so. when i started on "The Star Gurns" i changed the name to Tickleopians so it wouldn't seem so dumb. And stuff.
My little brother? well he's insane anyway, but that's a line from the almighty Invader Zim ("Please, Ma'am. If you don't buy my candy, my little brother will go insane").

yeah, i saw them. the site is very vague and doesn't go into anything at more than a surface level. It seems to be more for people who know how to make textures already and want to get better than for novices like j00rz truly.

PS: watch for the Tickleopian A-Wing, the next shot of the month (whoopee.)
