Another Ship Remake.
I remodeled and retextured another ship. These new ships not only look better, but have significantly less polys than the old one. Typically I can cut the number of faces to about 1/3 of what they were before. I hope there is a performance boost to match. [smile]

More Bad Guys
Here are a few enemy ships I've put together recently. I used a base layer, and applied both Dark and Light green color layers.

New Ignus Design
My brother has been working on the Ignus design. He's been having a little trouble rendering it, but here's a peek.

Image Archive
I've been working on an Image Archive for the Epoch Star website. Basically it's a place for me to dump pictures of ships I'm not using so I don't feel like they were a total waste of my time... so many of them... suck... so bad.

Pirate Ship Rendered in the Game
This is how the last ship I posted will look rendered in the game. It was re-skinned for the Bryce Rendering that Day Dream did.

DayDream Rendered Pirates
Day Dream retextured and rendered up some pirate models for us. They look pretty sweet (and absolutely nothing like Astro-Boy)

Astro-Boy?
johnhattan has been quite persistant about his view that our last ship model is a rip-off of Astro-Boy.

Judge for yourself:


I personally think John has spent just a little too much time watching cheesy Anime, but that's just my opinion [smile].

Some Artwork from Daydream
Day Dream was in the mood to show off some of his texturing abilities so he took the time to retexture and render one of Johnny's ships:

Space Station - Retextured.
My brother re-textured the space station. It no longer has the lights on the side, but he did manage to eliminate all those nasty seems that I had on it when I textured it.

Epoch Star v0.65.01 on GDS
I just put out v0.65.01 of Epoch Star. The new version is getting a bit large (31 MB), but I'll work to get that under control. Most of the ships I've been posting to this journal are now in the game as well as a few engine upgrades.

Enjoy [smile]

Quickest Model I've made
I made this model in about 20 minutes. It was my attempt to see how fast I could make a ship that looked reasonably good.

New Mining Ship
This is one of the new Mining ships. The new ships are taking longer than I had hoped... I may not have a new version of the game out until next weekend.

Just Finished Reading the new Harry Potter book
I give "Harry Potter and the Half Bloow Prince" My personal thumbs up. The ending is a bit of a downer, but I loved the book. I'll refrain from any more spoilers.[wink]

An organic ship
This base texture is inted to look much more organic. I think I did a decent job on it.










Any thoughts? [smile]

Base Texture
Here's a potential mercenary ship. I'm a bit disappointed with the base texture. It seemed a bit flat and bland. I may have also overcompensated by adding too much rust and dirt around the edges.





Opinions?

In game screen shots from my brother
These are some more ships done by my brother. These shots were taken from inside the engine so they are currently aliased (the graphics card I'm using apparently doesn't support edge aliasing).
