Spetsnaz

yeah same here very nice model u got going there chrono!

Chrono

anyone care to mesh/skin?

Godhand

i wanna try and skin it for fun if someone smeshes it!

Chrono

tf im doing im going with the general syle of pipes and stuff its exactly 1000 polies
and im thinking of enclosing the piston thingys with like a box then using transperancy and making it a grate i dunno tell me what you guys think of this and any ideas on how to improve it

BAshh

hmm i like the idea, but it's to... plain for me, needs a little more spice. not the TF that is.

Chrono

pretty much finished with the TF unless you want other stuff changed on it 1100 polies

bashh you confused me were you saying the TF is to plain or the observatory?

BAshh

pardon, i was saying that the observatory is too plain TF... is weird but kickass

Chrono

then tell me what to add to make it better <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
here is where the grating will be on the TF all the pure white is going to be replaced with grating

BAshh

*shrug i donno, but its just too plain

Chubbieboi

i like the TF tho the Obs is real fat at the base <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Chrono

im completely baffled on what to add on the observatory but i did make it taller to get rid of the fatty feel

PromoCL

Maybe make the dish bigger?

Chubbieboi

maybe make it a long thin pole with dish and it has a lil cable that connects to another lil PC thats placed beside it?

frostymoose

nooo you ripped the idea of detail behind awesome grate-stuff from my head!!! /me wonders what animations could be done with thems buildings...

Chrono

TF the pistons moving back and forth?
and the observatory the dish rotating?
and for the construction animation i was hoping it would be possible with the structure being dropped with the tubes not in the floor have them just laying around and when it gets constructed the tubes are plugged into the floor

Godhand

i REALLY like the cable-toobs. both the models are fantaschtick!

Also, like i said. im not skinner number 1, but if you want any help, i would love to assist in anyway possible

Tobold

make the dish of the obs so its not circular, that would be original

Swiftspear

and it would be ugly as hell...

as it stands that obs is just a dish and a base, put something on it for the cabels to plug into... a monitor, keyboard, wings, or anything else, just something so it isn't just a base and a dish.

On the topic of the observatory, how about making the dish point diagonally upwards?
Like<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->
