Very nice firestar, can't wait to see this finished along with volgobalt or whatever the name was

firestar12 · « **Reply #26 on:** April 01, 2009, 00:29:06 »

Ok, can I see a pic of reference? (Also Minime just hinted at another project you guys don't know about yet)

. Also, if anyone sees any errors, let me know.

oh lol, forgot that it wasn't announced, but I won't say anything more, that's up to Firestar

Who is Firestar? Are you talking to me by any chance?

Could you make it even longer, Fboig?

Haha...yep. Flaming ball of incandescent gas on awesome enchanted forests.

Ok, back on topic hehe...Thanks to Diamant for the info for this fix right here:
Also, heres that ship Minime was hinting at.
Edit: Here is another update, if you dont know what I did, I took a section off the back railings for the people to pass down to the lower decks.
Image removed due to unofficial logo use. I should have thought about that before I did it.

I will be changing my username from Matt5674 to something more better than the current.

On the other hand, I'm always going to be IRI5HJ4CK

Very good progress! Looking forward to seeing the final product!

p.s. Are you using Sketchup for the Hull, or is it Delftship, or something like that?

Just call him GAS - it's shorter

Minime · « **Reply #34 on:** April 01, 2009, 13:35:21 »

he uses blender, not delftship or sketch up

firestar12 · « **Reply #35 on:** April 01, 2009, 15:06:13 »

I changed it as an april fools joke. Nothing more nothing less. It is not something to be done often unless absolutley needed. Only the admins can do it.

matt5674 · « **Reply #36 on:** April 01, 2009, 16:45:02 »

Firestar is better than FBOIG. good thinking on changing your name back.

Captain Tony · « **Reply #37 on:** April 01, 2009, 17:53:12 »

Looking very good so far. I would use it.

firestar12 · « **Reply #38 on:** April 02, 2009, 14:49:06 »

It was an april fools day joke guys. Me and Fred were planning it a while ago. Maybe two months ago, I don't remember. Anyways, as soon as I get home I will post an update for you guys. Let me know what you want me to focus on next. I do think that the masts are too skinny, I agree with Diamant. Glad to see That "I want it, I want it" is winning.

Mad_Fred · « **Reply #39 on:** April 02, 2009, 15:32:58 »

"Planning" might be a bit overstated, I reckon..

I think it was me who called him that in a PM, cause it's boring to always say "hi so-and-so" over and over..

He asked me would I change it for him as an april fools joke.. and I didn't mind so said ok..

Back to topic though;

You're making great progress Firestar, can't wait to see where this is going!

Fred

CaptainMike1 · « **Reply #40 on:** April 02, 2009, 18:49:43 »

Firestar

I would ignore all the time wasting 'waffle' about your name change and concentrate on the excellent work you are doing with the model!!

Mike

firestar12 · « **Reply #41 on:** April 02, 2009, 20:13:37 »

I was doing the hull but deleted it after er...a buisness problem that we will not go into ANY further detail on. Please no one mention that.
@ Diamant, of course, I always work on practice items such as rudders and props and even telegraphs. Anyone here who can find me a decent side view please see if they can or ANY blueprints would be of great use. Exspetially that lower decks.

firestar12 · « **Reply #42 on:** April 03, 2009, 22:11:10 »

This project is kinda slow in comparison with my other one because this one will take a while. But sure, I made some test propellers. Let me know if you guys want me to make another topic for my other project. That one will get tons more updates way more often.

firestar12 · « **Reply #43 on:** April 07, 2009, 21:00:48 »

Thanks VERY much for those Diamant, will be sure to order them. Here is an update. (I added some more gaps in the railings for stairs to be added later.

Shipaddict · « **Reply #44 on:** April 07, 2009, 21:22:30 »

Very nice

firestar12 · « **Reply #45 on:** April 07, 2009, 21:32:29 »

Thanks very much!

Edit: Hey everyone, here is a telegraph I was working on for the SSUS. I will start a model of the bridge any day now. (Because for the guidelines, the bridge is basically a separate model, so i can start anytime)

firestar12 · « **Reply #46 on:** April 13, 2009, 22:04:04 »

I suppose I can start some stair work right now. (Listing to Love Shack and I love that song!)

llamalord · « **Reply #47 on:** April 13, 2009, 22:11:19 »

what's go'in on with that prop of yours. It has large noches in it along the shaft hole in the center, just asking.

firestar12 · « **Reply #48 on:** April 13, 2009, 22:14:50 »

My subsurf modifier was acting up. $:-\$ When I do the real ones, it wont be like that. If anyone here wants to know what subsurf is, feel free to ask.

firestar12 · « **Reply #49 on:** April 13, 2009, 22:32:54 »

(Sorry for double posting) I will edit a render in this post after it is done rendering. (Those clay renders take a long time you know!)

EDIT: Here it is, you might not be able to see it right away, but look at the very stern and on the port side, you will see that gate like thing. I will duplicate it over to the other side in just a second, no need t post that as an update as it is not too big...

Poll

Who would like to see her in ShipSim?
