Second Life for Wingnuts... Part 2

Vasator

Spaceman
Hello Everyone,

Awhile ago I posted in the forum about a carrier that I found looking for Wing Commander related things in Second Life. I just recently bought a Black Lance Dragon fighter. It's pretty cool, you can fly it and shoot from it. However it doesn't look all that authentic. It is pictured below.

While I was playing around with the fighter I decided to give it a try and model a Hellcat.

It is currently modeled and not yet textured or programmed for that matter to do anything.

Let me know what you think.......

Alex

"Hi honey. How was your day?"

"Not bad. Sorry I'm late. We needed to put in some extra hours wrapping up the Q3 financials. Next year's spend is going to suffer quite a cut back."

"Aww, I'm sorry dear. Well, dinner will be ready in about thirty minutes. I made your favorite..."

"You know what? I'm actually not all that hungry tonight. I think I'm just going to hop in the Hellcat V and blast a few residents. I really need this weekend to start out on the right foot."

"Well if you insist. Just make sure you remember to pay attention to the master arm switch this time. We don't want a repeat of...

"I know, I know. Little children are hard to replace. It won't happen again."

Arrow and Longbow

Here are the Arrow and the Longbow, have finally completed all of the Terran Fighters/Bombers from Wing Commander 3......

Whew!

Still working on the arrow though, this was my first attempt

The Longbow Looks Okay but the only thing I had to go by for a reference was the Wing Commander 3 Guide and It did not have a picture in it of the rear of the Longbow so I used what I remember from playing the game ten years ago... ~~~

Textures....

Yes I agree I need to add textures to the models. I'm still learning exactly how to apply them to the models and I'm working on making some custom textures for them as well.

The only thing is I really do not know how to apply textures to these kinds of models. I have experience with Truespace and the SL modeler is somewhat similar to it so hopefully it will work out the same.

I'll post more images as soon as I have them all textured up.

Thanks

Alex

Ta... Da... Hellcat Textured!

Okay here are some screen shots of the test texturing of the hellcat. Not perfect but this was just a test to see how to map textures in SL, I also got some scripts and the Hellcat is somewhat Flyable...

Contact Info... and credits...

Oh and I forgot a few things also.....

My contact info in SL is:

Vasator Aeon

Also the Textures you see on the Hellcat and the Thunderbolt are not mine they are from the WC3D Website. These textures are not going to be used on the final models but I just wanted to give a shout out to their creators:

(I hope I remember which textures I used)

Hellcat5 - Lynx

Thunderbolt - Tolwyn

I wanted to give credit where credit was due with the textures
