V-19 Starfighter WIP
 

This is one of my new creations. A V-19 in low-poly, under construction.
You may have seen this craft in the first season of Clone Wars.
Unfortunately, I don't have the blueprints so I had to suffer with the 3/4 view of the ship and try and model it from there. Now my work partly depends on you people :cya:. If you see mistakes in the proportions, element sizes, full ship scale... tell me freely (this is a community of course).
I'll have the textures ready soon too.

# of faces: approximately 1200-1300
% of work done: 33.333%

This ship has been known for his fighter use in the early years of the Clone Wars but since I can't find an appropreate republic bomber to model I will texture and code a heavy version of this ship (with gold markings), that has proton torpedoes.

I think the bottom engine should be lower a bit and here's a good pic of the V-19 http://images.wikia.com/starwars/ima...tarfighter.jpg

Uh, that's the 3/4 view i mentioned that I used.:lol:

nice one dude

I've seen the IA2 version but it looked kinda funny. It didn't seem to look like the one in the cartoon series so I wanted to make a new one. Besides, I wanted to design craft that would act as fighters/bombers from the part of the clone wars before the ARC-170 and V-Wings were used.

I have now finished the wing/main hull(w/o cockpit), nose extension, cannon and dorsal wing textures. It is now 00:30 in Serbia and I will see you tomorrow =P. Gotta get some rest this max/photoshop swappin is killing my eyes.

Oh and by the way I fixed the polycount. It's now 1138 (?!? digg the number on Wookieepedia) faces in total, plus-minus.

Hawkeye - Cause hes talented enough.


Very cool.

talent is only 5 percent I've been learning max for 5 years already (passively of course, it's a hobby)

Don't think this thread is dead... here's the latest update (still unfinished)

Took me awhile to finish the cockpit texture but I actually did it. Stay tuned for more.

And now - the finishing touch! All the textures are finished. Now it just needs to be rigged, scaled and exported, and here you have it.

If anyone has a tutorial about rigging fighters i would appreciate it. In any case, the bomber version is coming to you.
