I'm currently making a small demo for a stand at an expo to promote games development. Basically it's going to be a space battle where two teams of spaceships are going to blast each other to bits, fully AI-based. I made a low-poly model of a spaceship (any C&C is welcome, although I only took about 10 minutes making it).

The only problem is texturing, which I'm about as good at as I am at quantum mechanics, and I dont really have to time to teahc myself either. If anyone would help me by doing a texture for it, it would be highly appreciated.

Cheers,
Kentaree

what formats can you export it in?
Wavefront would be awesome...and .x won't work at all for me...

Wavefront is an export format in wings, that's what I use to import my models in to MS3D.

perfect...then send me it in wavefront format and i'll texture it for ya

any guidlines on how the texture should look?

dirty(realistic)
Smooth and clean (sorta cartoony)

...

BTW i like wavefront because UvMapper 0.25 uses it

Thanks
I'll email it to you in wavefront form. About the texture, I would prefer if it was semi-realistic anyway, but if the other way is easier, you can do it like that if you want. One other thing I'd like to have is 2 versions, each with something like different coloured wings so it's easy to tell them apart when they're fighting, if possible

"closer"?

there is no cock pit yet so i'm not sure what you mean by closer but if you ment "close" then yeah i'm going to try and put a cock pit there...

fixed that little "bump" in the red color on the wings...

that model shape looks sooo much like the spaceship in the intro for Blood Money, an old Amiga game.

Lol, I've been told it looks like a ship from starwars aswell. I didn't actually use anyu reference images, I just played around with a cube until I got something I liked.

yay! "red" ship done. the texture is 512*512....

in darkbasic-


milkshape render-


just so you know the red and black colors are NOT just plain red and black....

here is a pic of the texture..(NOT full scale...)


when i finish the blue one i will send you the model with the UV map...and textures

BTW i'm planning on making the blue one with a Grayish body...is that okay? or should i do some other color...as in one you suggest...

[edit] ouch running unto problems with the cockpit white not looking quite as "glassy" compared to the bodys gray(instead of blackish like the red one)

any color besides light gray or black you think the blue one should have?
