New Project: EVEN SMALLER FERRY
« on: March 24, 2009, 18:21:19 »
Hey everyone,

This one's just for laughs, really.. I was bored..  did it today in 4 or 5 hours or so..  :lol:
Obviously the people and car are google standards, and I used stuff from my other vessels for a quick fix.
But it's on target, poly wise.. so theoretically an active project..  :P

(a bit of a loss of quality from resizing..)

This type of car ferry is usually used on inland waterways. I know for a fact that there is a ferry that operates around here somewhere that can only take about 2-4 vehicles.

Nice model though Fred - someone should limit your internet usage for cheating  ;D

Well done though, it looks fantastic :)

We need a smart car with the new forklift tire things that let you drive in any direction (what an easy way to parallel park)

Haha Fred, you should find out if those actually exist. You could really detail that one and have only 50,000 polys! But what about the life raft? ;D Is it the size of the ferry itself when inflated? ;D

They do exist,

Mostly for crossing small rivers in my home country of Poland and the Nile River.

@ Fred, in the second to last picture, it looks as if that bloke at the stern is getting a little sea sick! (Either that or he just heard some Celine Dino) ;D

Hi you guys!

I appreciate your kind words, thanks very much indeed!

Yep, these small ferries do exsist indeed, they vary a lot in shape and size, and indeed are usually used on small river crossings and such..  in places where a bigger ferry just isn't needed..

The next one,.. well, I reckon that'll just be for one pedestrian.. hehe... it'll just be a lifering on a string, tied to both river banks.. with a bloke on either side to pull people across..  :P

And yep, that bloke on the rear is river-sick..  :)


Cheers guys!!


Fred.

You seem to like ferries, maybe a Washington State Ferry is in order. ;D

Actually, I bet you could make a mean looking Water Taxi. :)

Heh..  I could just paint a mean face onto the VSTP7   ;D

Anyway.. get me some good ferry blueprints, and I'll see what I can do..   :P

But there's a long list of requests allready though.

I think he means that he can design and make a website for you and you pay.

Somehow I don't think he'd be offering to pay for websites anyway, especially as we are in the middle of the credit crunch :P

I chuckled, but I really didn't laugh too hard. The only reason for that is the model looks very good, so I didn't really care if it was a small or big ship. It looked good, so I think it's good. Great modeling there Fred :).
