This time followed Jnyx'es comment and did not take off the wire frame since they help make the general idea of what the ships form look like...Supposed to be a harvester-ish ship and since i hear that Jnyx has already chosen how a harvester ship looks like...would like an opinion is all.

Right now im just practicing so if anyone finds something useful in this thing (though i hardly think so) use it without question....

I will give a cookie to anyone who can tell how many peaces this thing has *phew*


The model file is right below, do what you wish to it.
You need 3d WINGS freeware to open it

[EDIT]

Exported as 3DS file

This looks interesting. I have to say I like the general shape. However I recommend a sort of chitinous shell over what you have here. This to me looks like its a gunboat worthy design.

So, I'd most like to see this general shape with a swept back chitin shell like design. Think Horseshoe crap. Or a roach. Both with no legs.

Also for most playablity the Harvester ships are going to be described as machine ships that those of the machine alliance can fly. Thus it will be accessable to indies. That way even if the Harvesters fall flat on our faces the ship will be useable.

Thank you for your effort.

If you wish you can DL the .Wing file and mod it to your desire, would like to see how it turns out..interactive modeling, have an idea, get the original and show eeeeet

Export it as 3ds if you want people to take a look at it. A lot of people tend to like looking at models in their own program, no offence intended.
I use Wings for all of my modelling anyway and after looking at your model, it has plenty of potential for a Harvester ship. Currently it looks a bit basic due to the limited shape but if you could expand on it somehow (The ring around it all may limit that) then it could be fantastic!:)

This actually looks pretty interesting, I'd say Harvesters would/should have their own ship line since as far as I know they tend to make a lot of soylent green.

This looks pretty different, as it should be. I have a few questions though:
Where is the engine/propulsion?
Cockpit (just in case human pilots get a good RP behind it)
Weaponry mounts?

You can just make another image with arrows to point them out to me, but the ship does need engine mounts, since we haven't got star trek style engines I would say. Even Nomads have engine mounts, their just rectums.

I am very interested to see where this ship will end up if it does get into the game. Keep it up!

This is the second ship i EVER made....and the second ship i ever made on a modeling program. since i have no prior understandings in coding, i put the file up so any good modelers/coders can DL it and add what it needs...i only gave the basic idea, anyone who is working on models as such, can take these ideas, blend them with their own and make something truly FANTASTIC for the new versions or just for the fun of it...
And the fact that there is no details such as engines/cockpit/mounts/textures/brakable parts and other, i say its just a starting static mesh, not a ship.

Currently we do have a criuser model made for the upcomeing mod upgrade hopefully. However I always love new ideas. I know nothing about modding and have attempt myself but so far am unable to produce a cube.

Aha fair enough, my knowledge of ship modeling is limited at best. Sorry for my ignorance.

Still its a nice model through and through.

From Jinx' model the Harvesters seem to prefer more squid like ships. Reminds of the Sovereign.

SPOILER WARNING:

The big ass ship is Sovereign. Squid style.

All the same, other designs would be very welcome.
