What ship do you want to see?
« on: March 23, 2006, 08:18:44 am »
If you had the choice to see any space vessel from any TV show ever in game . . . . what would it be?

I need a new project... dont mind if its trek or starwars, B5, galactia.. stargate etc..

Post your suggestions and I'll run with the most popular.. keep in mind I like to keep my models less than 3k.

I'm looking for Trek ships that haven't been built before, and some variants that have. I've bumped the posts I've put doen earlier so you can have a look and see if you want to have a go at them.

Thanks in advance.

Here's a list of simple designs that should be doable under 3k:

Spaceball 1 and the Eagle 5 from the movie Spaceballs.  And I'd like to see high poly/high res versions.  :-D

I started working on the Eagle 5 over a year ago.  Maybe it's time to dig it up, dust it off, and work on it some more.

I vote for Sea Quest as well (always loved that show...)

  Some other suggestions (These are from anime shows):
The Nadesico (any version)
The Destroyer  Soyukaze, Earth battleship,flagship or destroyers, advanced fighter  (Irresponsible Captain Tylor)
Comet Empire City Ship, Any Gamilons, (Star Blazers)
Colony/Sides, Solar Weapon complex, Albion, Minerva, Archangel, Libra battlestation (Various Gundam series)
Deathshadow (not arcadia) (Harlock - My youth in Arcadia), The  Kariyu, (Cosmo Warrior Zero)
Any or all ships from GALL FORCE
The Flagship Exelion and some monsters from GunBuster
I can't really remember, but there was some cool stuff in ULYSSES 31
Super Atragon (the anmie version is cooler than the Godzilla Final Wars one - a rip)

Regular (Live-action TV):
That huge arse starbase from Jason of Star Command
Hawk's fighter from Buck Rogers season 2, a stargate, lots of cool civ ships/shuttles, The Draconia!! Some Hatchet fighters...
Anything from Space Above and Beyond... (awesome show)
Anything from The Last Starfighter


That's all I can think of for now. (apologies if any of you think those are not viable ideas)...

His low poly modeling style would be perfect for churning out gamelon ships. Or those stingray shaped comet empire fighters. For that matter, any of the pre-tos sf museum staff not yet made (ya know wasp class and comet class and all that junk)

Anduril already made the Concorde.  It is called the USS Masamune.

I'd like to see a version of the flying sub from Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea. That'll be cool.

Ever herd of games workshop? they got a game called warhammer 40000(or epic it was a long time ago) lots of cool ships in that and in all the years I have been hanging around these boards I have never seen any one do any of them.
Thinking about it they have enough races to do a whole mod

Anduril made a TOS version of the Concorde, Not THIS one. Andurils is close but different.
