Come one, come all!
You know you want them, you know you need them!
That's right, I'm offering you high quality ship renders!
For a very reasonable and negotiable payment of Sirius Credits, you can have your very own high quality ship render of any ship, any angle, any lighting condition! Just think about it, you've always wanted that signature to look just a bit nicer, that faction banner to have that extra sparkle (or grime, for you junkers out there).
I've got fully up to date models of every ship, with accurate textures (yes, this includes V4.85.3)!
So, what can I do to prove this? Well, for starters, you can look at my signature. All handmade, no in-game footage used. Second, you can take a look at the Ships section of the wiki - every ship in there was rendered by me to ensure that they all are at identical angles and with the same lighting conditions.
Still not enough to sway you? Well, have a look here!
That's right, minor texture modifications are also available for a modest extra fee!
To sweeten the deal even more, I'm willing to add in mounted weapons! That's right, choose what weapons you want to see on your ship, and I can put them there.
So, how do I get one of these amazingly sweet pictures for myself you ask? Well, simply ask!
"Hey can you make me a picture of a [insert ship name here], facing at me and slightly down, with a greenish light coming from the left, like it's in [system name here]?"
In that case, you've be looking at 2.5M, and I'd probably be able to send you the picture within a few hours of seeing the request. The better you define your request, the faster I'll be able to get it right. That means if you can give me a specific angle (20 degrees down from horizontal, 15 degrees to the left) I'd be really happy, but I'll work with whatever you give me.
Or even:
"I'm making this really nice sig for someone, and I just can't get the ship to look right. Can you make one that fits into [example picture], and has shading and perspective that fits with the rest of the image?"
Of course!
Are you seeing the benefits now?
"lol, can u maek 1 4 me with my awesomesauce tridente pwning soem nub lvl20 rhino?"
.... No. sorry. Two reasons: 1) I can't do weapon fire, that's too hard to get out of the game files for me. 2) Even if I could, it would cost you a lot. My prices are subject to increase based on the 'lolwuttery' of the request.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, here's the skinny:
+ Any ship, any angle, any lighting, any resolution, any format you want. For technical people, the [perspective / camera distance / zoom / whatever you want to call it when the part farther away is smaller than the part up close] amount is also easily changed.
+ Basic ships will be delivered by whatever means you wish (depending on file size) within 2 days in most cases.
+ Prices start at 2.5M/render, may increase with huge render sizes (more than 1280x1024 or so, just because of the time involved for running it).
+ Basic ships for any BAF| or Cryer| official member are free! (yep, I play favorites)
+ Additional services such as painting the textures or adding weapons will be more expensive and take longer, because they take significantly longer than just running off what I already have ready.
+ Price and time will be quoted before I work on anything, unless you specifically offer something that sounds good to me. Payment will be directed to 'Old.Frank' on the main disco server.
What I do not offer:
- Weapon fire or engine trails, I haven't found a way to export them from the game without trying to recreate them manually by trial and error, which I'm only willing to do for my own stuff (for now at least).
- Full sigs, unless it's just the ship, a simple background, and some text.
- Model modifications.
Of course, if you think something is worth more than I'm asking, feel free to donate whatever you wish! The more money I make from this means less time I have to spend trading, and I'll be able to offer more services.
I know I'd said earlier in the ship renders thread that I couldn't get smoothed ships, but I've figure that out and everything will look nice and smooth, just like they do on the wiki now. Every ship except the Paladin and TigerShark for some reason, those two just don't want to look pretty.
Please note, I am currently a graduate student, so there will be some days or weeks when I have a lot of real work to do, and will not be able to give a fast turnaround. I apologize, but this is a game after all.
