Katchoo\'s Shipset Thread (aka the ungodly slow DoGa guy).
 

Hey gang!

I'm building my first original Shipset and wanted to get a few opinions on it.

Here's a picture of the Battleship:

I'm going for a "Colossal" feel to the ships, ergo the blocky (sp?) configuration.

All comments (good & bad) are welcome.

Read ya soon,

Katchoo

Quite colossal and impressive indeed. Made with Doga, I suppose ?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah. I haven't mastered any other programs yet. Probably 'cause I don't have any patience with them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Katchoo
Way to go. Love it. Can't wait for the rest.

I like it. I imagine this shipset would be the best at ramming other ships. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
A huge flat surface like that can smash anything. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Or, if you get two ships together you could "sandwich" a enemy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Hey, DOGA is not to be underestimated. Just look at what I was able to do with it. http://newageshipyards.cjb.net

Nice start for a ship set. You can import textures to your color pallet. These can be custom made, or even from other sources. Textures really set a ship set apart from one another.

doga is nice but images made there lack realism even more than non-professional Moray images (all the high-end programs produce some nice stuff though)

ok sorry, didnt want to go OT.

Re: Katchoo\'s Shipset Thread (aka the ungodly slow DoGa guy).
 

Thanks for the feedback guys!

I've got 95% of the ships done. I figure i'll have everything ready (hopefully AI too) for the weekend.

Getting off topic here...

Has anyone ever done a Shipset based on Mars Attacks? They're showing the movie on TBS right now (I guess they wore out their copy of The Mummy already).

Re: Mars Attacks

Closest available set is probably the "Little Green Men" set, which isn't really all that close. I did think about doing this once, and even found a website with all the original trading card designs, but there aren't enough ships in there for even a quarter of a set, and I wasn't prepared to create all the images from new.

I'd love to see a MA set though. The speech file would rock!
