Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


You think red scale would be a good idea?

Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


The green looks good. I think I'm going stay with some form of blue. I don't think there were any green ships in the empire.

I thought of red scale and it can work, but It wouldn't be compatible with the other ships (frieghters and shuttles).

Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


really nice work slay.

Personally, I think it's better to do this in redscale, full orthagonal views and then make a reduction to bluescale after that.

I do like what you have done so far slay, but Quint is very right.

regards,
Lucas

Thanks Lucas.
Actually, when I scanned it, it was in red scale and I reduced it then. So, all the detail is there.
If it's better to do in red scale, then why arn't all the ships of this size done that way? Not that I'm opposed to red scale, but I want this to the same scale as the other ships.

Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


no worries slay.

as far as the scale issues are concerned, I don't think we have officially esctablished what goes to what scale, but I think that if a ship is less than 20 metres long then redscale is ideal to show all the details, below 10 would be Yellow...

eventually, I think most ships will have multiple scale versions.

There'll be some other red-scaled ships pretty soon...

Call me crazy, but we may want to consider the new scales as well.

Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


I thought that we were.

Slay you are using the metric version of bluescale / redscale right?

Re: SFS Skipray Blastboat


yeah, I'm using meters. The ship is a little longer than 25 meters, but it's something I can live with for now.
