When will we see screenshots of the Kamekh ? Have you begun working on it ?
Wow, two in one. That means we're only 2 ships short!PopsiclePete said:Although, according to the CIC's Ship database what you modeled is not a Kamekh, but a Fralthra !
Yep, my Kamekh only has the forwardmost windows. The ones on the side turned out too low-res due to their placement relative to the texture's alignment, so I thought it was best to remove them altogether.PopsiclePete said:You missed those bridge windows on the nose there...
Huh? The standard issue Kilrathi marking is right there! (Admittedly, I've replaced the original bunch-of-red-claws with it).PopsiclePete said:...and the Kilrathi makings on the top.
The white/light brown is the same shade as in the other capships... and the red is the same shade as in most of the fighters. Maybe they don't mix well together, even though a corvette is like a fighter/capship mix? I can change this, but I liked the mixed shades idea. What does everyone else think about it?PopsiclePete said:It looks like you've decided to lower the contrast between the metalic and red parts by using light brown and dark red instead, why ? I'd like it better with a bit more contrast and maybe a bit more gray for the metalic parts instead of the light brown...
Oh ! Now I see some, but they're not dark enough, I mistook them for dirty textures !Eder said:Yep, my Kamekh only has the forwardmost windows. The ones on the side turned out too low-res due to their placement relative to the texture's alignment, so I thought it was best to remove them altogether.
Oh ! Now I see it, but barely. Maybe it's just the screenshot that makes it hard to see, but maybe you should make it a bit brighter ?Eder said:Huh? The standard issue Kilrathi marking is right there! (Admittedly, I've replaced the original bunch-of-red-claws with it).
They do mix well together, it's just that I liked the original red-over-metalic contrast...Eder said:The white/light brown is the same shade as in the other capships... and the red is the same shade as in most of the fighters.

Of course. I'm writing some main campaign outlines right now, but I'll have a second Kamekh screenshot (in a different, brighter sector) up later today... this way people can tell what is the lighting's fault, and what is my faultPopsiclePete said:And what about the shark mouth ? Can you provide us with a screenshot from below to see it ?
The shot from bottom is gorgeous and the lightning shows the contrast much better.Eder said:Of course.

Eder said:Uh, I'm not sure what you mean... the Ralatha is a Ralatha.
Eder said:IIRC, Thrakhath's flagship is a cruiser, but of the Rikagh class, not of the Fralthra class.
