Hello everyone!
as i said in the showcase thread, here is my WIP thread of the Venator i´m making.

Here some pics of the bridge and the start of the tower: and now some of the whole ship so and here pics of the engines so and now to the pics i´ve made today i think this should be all IMO, i think later will come an update

That's very nice, only some edges could be removed on the towers.

you are right, but i´ve already see it and will delete these edges (there are many by the engines too) if i´ve finished the exterior. you read right, the exteriors! interiors will also be include!

here a small, realy small, update: BTW: can someone tell me why my right tower is black? i already used headlight.

Edit: forgotten the to show the scale of it
in the red circle is a trooper

The tower is probably black because you probably didn't checked "headlights", for that click on texture decal, and check "headlights", nice updates btw .

This is going to be an AWESOME model!
Wait a minute... No, that's already an awesome model!

Do you plan on using stock textures or do you need a n00b texture artist like me?

Looks great. I'm loving the detail on the bridge and engines. Don't be afraid to use even more polygons than that, though. It's going to be a big model (as in you won't be able to see it all at once) so go crazy!

EDIT: Oh, and it needs to be scaled bigger. Much bigger

THX for your comments

realy, i will see if i put an arc-170 and eta-2 in to see how it looks. it will have interiors, so i mustn´t be to big, cause otherwise you run and run and run...

1)
2)

that's AWESOME. a really big Project and exelant detailed. keep on work

Hagars??

Why do you start a project that is allready in work (forcemaster)

thx anakin
to the hangars i must say: it is an WIP!!!!, but they will be add and if you look ion the oic with the down view you will see the bottom hangar.

to this i can only say what i have said on the showcase thread

it is the Venator, one of my favorite ships at all. i know that forcemaster is also making one, but he makes it TCW and i ROTS, so i think no problems there
it was a big dream of mine to build a complete new Venator (with interiors) when i start modding this great game called Star Wars: Battlefront 2

and tell me one reason why i shouldn´t start this project? look on the topic, there stands: "[ROTS/CW]" and not TCW. moreover i will say that this will not be an idea stealing or a contest.
i only make a dream of me real.

@The Nasal Abyss: here is a pic with the arc-170, i think i can scale it alitle more but not too much if you see it right ike me

Excellent .

@Anakin: Each people does what he wants to do, if we don't do what is already done or in WIP, we couldn't do nothing.

It's totally a modders perogative to make something he or she wants to make.

If Naru wants to make an awesome Venator class Republic Star destroyer, then let him. I've even been helping with textures and I can't wait to fly around that beast.

Officialy, I started to do textures for this model. I try to make them different from Forcemaster's Venator, like this we will see the difference.

model looks very nice naru good job
why does everybody make venators lol

Wow, the bridge detail reminds me of fractalsponge. It looks really good.

Ontopic: I think the Venater looks good as always, I would watch that poly count as you go though. The bridge looks a little too detailed for my tastes.

thx for your kind words guys

so here is another update, i´ve finished the base model and go no over to the details: and wireframe:

i have a look on it, but there are many edges/polys which will be delete when the interior comes or which are obsolete, cause the exterior hides them. and for me, i think the bridge is too low detailde(made it in 3hours) and i´ve planed to make more details on it, but after all your great feedbacks, where you all said that the bridge is very detailed, i´ve decided that this is the finished version of the bridge only at the end of it will be a zylinder more, so...

It looks great Naru!

Nice looking model
Not sure if you are going to make your own texture for it or not but if you decide to make sure you keep a copy of the higher poly msh it would make a very good hires version for an ambient occlusion map. Which would also allow you to do a fair amount of poly reduction on the lowres version because the "detail" provided by ambient and a bump map if you make one.

Keep up the good work.

thx for comment, but i´ve understood nothing of it. can you explain it to me, so that i can understand it please? you may remember i´m modeler since half a year and don´know all about modeling. so i´m open for everything new
thx in advance

EDIT: last update for today, base model finished and here are some details on the venator not many now, but a few:

That is looking amazing and getting pretty realistic. Keep it up. Can't wait to see a mod with this one in it.
