arekP64 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 ah shit, I confused Normal maps with UV's, again. Sometimes when I dig through files I find that some dev's tend to call Normal maps in the files as UV's. I don't know why are they doing this, but they do and they infected me with this. That's why I was asking why do you need UV's (normal's) for it, my bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How odd, not sure why those devs would call uv's normal maps since normals pretend to show high details using clever lighting tricks and uv's are too do with seams and telling the pc where to stop when it comes to applying textures. Strange devs too be honest, i don't find that a good practice really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks certainly great, especially the small details on the bridge and stuff! Do you use uploaded images to get the dimensions right or are you modelling completely free-style? What do you use as stating point for the hulls? Simple cube? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you use as stating point for the hulls? Simple cube? Thonks! Ye i use blender 2.9 atm, for this ship i actually look at some 3d models on sketchfab and work from there and maybe a few images, but i never put them inside the programme itself (probs should, but eh). Yeah, i always use a cube as it the easiest for me to get the dimensions right, and other shapes are too fiddly, pretty much every part on her is some form of a primitive anyways, mainly cubes and cylinders, with a few torus's and also curves as well. This is entirely a made up design however, but i like it anyways. Might at some point try an existing design, although there a few designs i want to get made (like texas style ship, california, yorkie, moar cruisers and some german style ships.). But yeah thanks for the compliments 'w'/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 I was unable to get a lot of modelling done today (got distracted alot). Either way i found some images of ORP jadwiga with her finished textures in substance, i also just got paid so i should be able to fling her on to sketchfab and you can then take a full look at her 3d model. Enjoy! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1MajorKoenig Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Hey Barney - I started skribbling a little on my own. It's probably not particular good but it's pretty fun and I may see where this will take me. Here is a super-dreadnought Hull I started doing: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be a bit tedious since you need to do all the little details unless you want to skip most of them, and make sure to watch your poly count as well ORP jadwiga came out a whopping 750k polys lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cptbarney Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Soz for the lack of posting have been busy with other projects, ill be posting a new hull and some additions to ORP warsaw later on today and more tommorrow, managed to get three models uploaded this week (ORP jadwiga included), and working on at least 8 different models with another 4-6 waiting to be textured and/or uv mapped. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well, i did another comparison. Ended up only doing little bits for warsaw as i ended up doing more of other projects ill set some time tommorrow and sunday to do more modelling for warsaw and see if i can get her uploaded as well. Oh and the new ship hull. enjoy ladz. 'w' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Hissy Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) Just have to say something. Sorry for appearing with criticism, but, please, pay some attention to hull form. Below deck level your models appear like some crude wedges, that's not nice... They were rather thick there. Maybe pictures like this will help, potentially you can even load one in your editor and use it as a base for modelling (this one is russian predread "Андрей Первозванный" *** also something very typical for all ships of this age, all superstructure and even guns are noticeably shifted forward. idk why, maybe those reciprocating engines are just this heavy, but gives them that characteristic look Edited November 20, 2020 by Cpt.Hissy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Hey ladz, i'm very close to finish modelling ORP Warszawa in-general, afterwards ill uv map her relevant parts and then texture and put her on sketchfab, in the meantime here is some more images of her and i think i have found one of the more perfect lighting solutions which is great. Enjoy! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 I've got a few extra bits to add to the hull, like some ladders to the sides of the hull to where the casemates are and also ladders to the turrets and poles too. Plus other thing like additional piping, anchors and a few more life rings plus some boxes and barrels (ill re-do the models so they are a proper barrel then uv map that so when i copy it i don't have to do each one). But yeah she will be the second ship, then ill go back and see what other ships need doing and their completion rates as well and then do them up and fix whatever need fixing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 Ok, she almost done. I need to a few more ladders at the front, some piping around the SS and also a few other little boxes and barrels maybe two or four more rigging poles little bits on those poles and also finally some guns at the front and rear. Not sure to do a platform at the back like jadwiga. enjoy! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbarney Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 Oh and do some other parts on the hull and the rudder as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
