Title: Galileo 7 WIP
Post by: Tralfaz on Dec 21, 2020, 03:18 am
I've been working on the Galileo shuttle craft for a few days now.  Not done yet.  Still have some lettering, vents to model, etcl.

wow nice meshing, when the wire frame looks like a technical drawing that's nice

Thanks very much folks.  Quick update.  Not sure if I am going to do an interior yet or not.

Thanks Eric.  Instead of modelling the graphics on the shuttle, I am going to give it a try and UV map the shuttle.  Then I can add some weathering etc.  Decided this after getting all of the graphics just off the surface of the shuttle, then make a subtle change to the model and have to reposition the graphics again.  Did this a few times.  Not fun. ;)

depending on you you do its if you UV map it out you can also bake noise and shapes into a normals map for subtle details.

I have abused that for years

Started working on the interior.  I am taking a bit of artistic license here in order to get everything to fit

Thanks guys.  Unfortunately I had a problem where I had to restore to factory settings.  Unfortunately, factory settings meant scrubbing my 2nd hard drive as well which is where I kept all my models.  Fortunately, I had a backup of the shuttle before I started working on the interior, so it is back to square one again.  I now back up my work to my back up drive nightly.

I am glad you have started to back up your work!  You're a talented artist.  We want your work preserved.
