*STAR DESTROYER AND FIGHTERS NOT MADE BY ME*

While the image is nowhere near completion, I thought a teaser was in order. No anti-aliasing has been aplied yet, but it will be when the final is ready.

And now for a riddle so you can go fiddle:

The journey that began years ago,
soon shall be hear'd about.
The promised kept,
the dream fufilled,
the vision seen,
the end clean.

You do realize that if the bottom ISD is in fact moving forward, it's going to sideswipe a building, yes? :p

Its going to mow the city down at some point. I want the city to look like grass, and the star destroyers to just mow pieces of it down sometimes.

Weak building. This is a planet that does not have much technology, its pretty primitive, similar to ours.

When a building is going to be demolished, do they drive tanks into the side? I mean, it wouldn't hurt the tank.

NO.

They blow it up! And this the Imperials would do as well. From orbit.

Or even better... if they kill everyone on the planet or drive them off of it, they have little reason to demolish an empty city.

It would still damage the ship.

A star destroyer through a building would be much like driving a mini through a shed, even if it's just the side mirrors, something's going to break.
nope.

You could have a nifty backstory that says the Star Destroyers are controlled by a psychotic sith commander or something. That kinda thing.

Yeah. Besides, ISDs are not atmospheric craft, they should be VSDs. Of course, I prefer using "Vader's Fist"... :P

Not really. As others said, the victory class is the only one capable of entering atmosphere, so thats what they must be. Fits with the scale of the ties too. Though I have to wonder why they have tie avengers, but only VSDs.

Star Destroyers are designed for orbital bombardment anyway. They'd just level the place from orbit, no matter what class they are.

Except those are ISDs, and TIE Defenders.

Sure. Just go to [url]www.blenderwars.com[/url]

At first, the star destroyers will not be destroying the city, in stead, they are searching it. The whole idea of the ISD ramming the building is probably going to be scrapped because I think it would be to hard to make, atleast for me.
Then of course, the star destroyers will burn down the city, after the stormtroopers execute many citizens, sort of like a Jewish holocaust scene, where they kill them, probably bad choices of words but thats the feeling I want to it.

EDIT: You won't find the buildings there, I'll post a seperate rendering of those later.

Buildings:
1.- This was originaly intended for my matrix mod, how ever, it ended up in this project, and is the base on which I build all my other buildings:

[http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/Israel_Angell/BUILDING_10001.jpg]

2.- This was a simpler version of building 1, with a new taste. If you notice, they have the same glass, but I believe I resized them a bit, don't really remember. These were all built in 30 minutes.

[http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/Israel_Angell/BUILDING_20001.jpg]

3.- Still the same glass, and shapes, but a different type of building. I added a fence because I felt it needed something.

[http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/Israel_Angell/BUILDING_30001.jpg]

Well, thats what I've made in the scene so far, I plan to make more building, and perhaps a few ships, but I've never made a good ship before.

The buildings are better than anything I think I could make. What program did you use? They don't look terrible.

I use blender, and they are terribly easy to make actually.

New building added, now rendered with anti-aliasing set at 5 samples, took 24 minutes with 13 seconds... I really don't know what this is coming to.

It looks like one of the destroyers is sticking right into the unfinished building (I'm assuming that's what it is.) I know that they're supposed to do that but it doesn't seem to be destroying the building, just going through it.
2006-03-27, 9:43 PM #30
Yeah, Gold you do realize that any form of destruction that would result form a ISD ramming a building would require hours upon hours to model and make it look good, right?

I already said that idea was scrapped, and the stardestroyer is not going through the builing, its going around it, the shadow however goes through the building.

Looks pretty cool, I actually don't mind the idea of the star destroyers plowing the building

I might note that my teacher has worked (and still works) as a modeller and texturer for various game developpers.

So what are we looking at? A level? A cutscene? A video clip? I can't make anything of it.... please clarify.

So if we're going to see a finished product of this, when are you going to start working on the textures? To me it seems you didn't actually do THAT much so far.
2006-03-29, 4:42 PM #38
As soon as the geometry is done, texturing begins, and then I'm going to redo the whole animation.

You'd think the empire would take better care of their Star Destroyers... and I thought they couldn't enter atmosphere. Regardless, very nifty models. XD
