Sorry for the cheezy sound effects - it felt empty without them, and I couldn't resist :D
Cobra Take-off 01
Just a quick teaser while I render this massive movie :beer
Mu5 - that's awesome mate! Now I can't wait to see the finished render, how long is it expected to take? :)
Good question :D Im going to render a short version at 640x480 first, which may take about a week. After that a version in HD 1280x720, which may take about a month lol
Three two one go!
Well I hope SL are watching - coz what you are doing, MU5, is fantastic - and you work alone. A one man effort, hats off mate! :rock
Mighty fine Mu5! Keep 'em coming.
Thanks for the comments chaps, I appreciate it and Im glad you like it! :) :+
I just uploaded a slightly longer version.
I FINALLY got enough time to get my sketches to the computer. I posted my Idea for the U.S.A. team "WolfBane" a while ago(pg.10 on this forum if you want to read it). I've been so busy with school I've only been able to draw a few sketches of the craft. Though with fall break I'll be able to post the logo and slogan before too long. Anyway, presenting WolfBane's prototype craft, the "Alpha-Wolf Mk III ver.002".
I really like the side view but I'm still working on making the top view correctly porportioned to the side. But I'll get that fixed soon. As for the speed, handling, thrust, shield, and colors, well, you're gonna have to wait for those ;)
I could try and make a rough model for you, if you like.:)
@ mdhay - I would really appreciate it if you could do something like that for me. I'm not the most artistcally gifted guy in the world :?
WolfKill01, awesome! Your ship looks very aerodynamic, it reminds me the lovely Icaras of Wip3out...
Wolfbane mkIII : AirLicker Approved ++
Mdhay, will model it real good! I can't wait to see it :)
I remember the awesome backstory from months ago. The 2dimensional sketches are blinkin' cool! A nice looker, indeed! :)
that sketch is looking really good wolf :D I'd like to do a little sketch of that myself too if you don't mind :P that really is looking very nice.
I've had so much work at college that I've not done anything like this in a while. Gonna have to try and fit something in for this again. :)
Andy, good call...
... I better get on with developments to the Tez Dharkan Project.
Designer_79 has been a lil quiet of late, due to commitments with moving flats and having his GF stay over, so he hasn't been able to contribute much recently, though I know he is itching to get on with the 3D modelling of the Tez already...
... all good things happen in their own time I guess, and that aint a bad thing. :)
Keep an eye out for us, we are the promise of Potent Fear... :)
I suppose I'll probably get back into this at half term, it'll be good practice as I'm doing games development so it'd be good to get some practice in on photoshop and general designy-modely stuff. It's just so busy at the moment I haven't been able to get any me-time lol. I forget what your ship looks like, if you want, I could have a little tinker with it, it'd be good practice for me to do any kind of creative design stuff. Up to you guys though. :P
I got a good idea for a new team Andy, and a few sketches in pencil, like top and side elevations - I'll post them up soon and you can give them a shot...
...actually, that'll work out quite nicely, so thanks for the offer mate! It's hugely appreciated by me! :)
Two new ships to be returned (with new locations):
Tigron Enterprises
Location: Singapore
Description: With the fall of Tigron that is located in Russia (where Qirex-RD was located in), Tigron now resides in a private laboratory facility for FX racing ships located in Singapore City. While they have kept its original designs, they have successfully upgraded the Tigron racing ship that will outrun even the fastest ships there is (hence Icaras).
Speed: 8/10
Thrust: 10/10
Handling: 9/10
Shield: 6/10
Van-Uber Racing Developments
Location: South Korea
Description: Since Van-Uber have suffered the same fate as Tigron, the FX racing mechanic teams have revived Van-Uber, this time taking place in Seoul, South Korea. They have kept Van-Uber's original looks, but otherwise they have upgraded it to take on against faster ships.
Speed: 7/10
Thrust: 10/10
Handling: 8/10
Shield: 9/10
Two New Teams:
LH-58 Motors Inc.
- Country of origin: Puerto Rico
- Research and developement facilities: Hato Rey
- Catchword/Tag: "100% Perfection"
- Emblem: An "H" shaped lizard
Brief history:
- LH-58's new prototype, a lizard-shaped ship known as the LizardWave, will be able to dominate the competition, since it is indeed close to perfection that no other FX racing ship has ever had. They have placed 4 twin-turbos inside the ship, with titanium steel plated armory in order to withstand even the most deadly attacks, two large airbrakes that is intended to navigate through harrowing corners, a new emergency seat ejection that will deploy in an istant (thus causing the parachute to deploy). The team also declares that all other FX racing teams are considered their rivals.
Specs:
- Speed: 10/10
- Thrust: 10/10
- Handling: 8/10
- Shield: 9/10
Nebulus & Urebum Technologies
- Country of origin: Iceland
- Research and developement facilities: ReykjavÃ*k (Nebulus) and Keflauik (Urebum)
- Catchword/Tag: "Forever and Together"
- Emblem: Unspecified emblems for two different ships
Brief History:
- The Icelandic FX racing team have created two different ships within the same location. Nebulus & Urebum worked together to create two individual ships with the same power with different designs. Despite that Nebulus and Urebum are rivals, they do not seem to hate each other. They collaborate each other one after the other, and that two individual ships has identical performance. Nebulus and Urebum are always forever and together, despite their rivalry.
Specs (Nebulus):
- Speed: 7/10
- Thrust: 6/10
- Handling: 8/10
- Shield: 6/10
Specs (Urebum):
- Speed: 7/10
- Thrust: 6/10
- Handling: 8/10
- Shield: 6/10
Let's see if I can make the LH-58 Motors logo and its ship and Nebulus & Urebum Technologies logos and ships.
AWESOME - We got our thread kicking once again peeps!
MetaKraken, nice ideas and well worth posting mate... Cheers. :)
Just in, a brand new ship from the IGLU team that can fold up for either better speed or increased downforce:
http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/pic...pictureid=1542
What is that :eek?! It's like something straight out from a track in Zone!
Nice work Feisarfan - the ship is coming together nicely mate!!! Big respect man!
Thanks for the positive feedback on the sketches. One of my goals for fall break this week is to create the slogan and logo for the team as well. Does anyone now any good FREE software/sites to do this on?
2 More New Teams:
TER-TO-NAI Research Facility:
- Country of origin: Serbia
- Research and development facilities: Belgrade
- Catchword/Tag: "Turbocharged to The Extreme"
- Emblem: Two "T"s (one from the top, the other is upside down"
Brief history:
- If Qirex knows all about High-Speed Revolution, then so can TER-TO-NAI. The TER-TO Serbian team has unveiled their powerful ship, known as HyperThunder, which consists a powerful rocket engine, a small, but powerful supercharger embedded into the engine, and its state-of-the-art racing seat that it is made out of kevlar (which is fireproof/explosion-proof) and twin exhausts from the back. When it comes to oval or straight lined tracks, TER-TO-NAI will always get there first with ease.
Specs:
- Speed: 10/10
- Thrust: 10/10
- Handling: 4/10
- Shield: 10/10
Dronzier:
- Country of origin: Israel
- Research and development facilities: Tel Aviv
- Catchword/Tag: "Always Ready"
- Emblem: Unspecified emblem
Brief history:
- The Israeli FX racing team will do whatever they can to rise Dronzier to popularity, as they work countless days and months designing a ship that no other anti-gravity racing ship can ever outrun their latest design, known as MantaOmega, a hybrid ship which consists an engine that cannot be heard by the crowd and the pilots. This is one tricky ship that other rivals are absolutely unaware whether the MantaOmega is approaching or not, so Dronzier will quietly take home for finish.
Specs:
- Speed: 6/10
- Thrust: 8/10
- Handling: 6/10
- Shield: 5/10
@WolfKill01 - I use Paint Shop Pro at home, aka the poor mans photoshop. But it's a cool piece of software man. You should be able to get a trial version of it from Jasc.com - hope this helps.
Oh, and um - on the main WZ page, there's links to free stuff like wipeout type fonts, which are always useful. :) goodluck mate!
Cool :D. let's see if I can design my mentioned race teams and their ships by drawing ;).
Get on it mate, more ships ftw! And help is always at hand!
WolfKill, I can't design it. I've tried, but I just can't. Something isn't right with it. Not the sketches, but I don't know, :S
I can see if I can crack it once I've finished my homework if it's okay with you wolf & mdhay. There looks like there are plenty of subtle curves on it, which is something that's pretty difficult to pull off in sketchup - but I've been using sketchup for this sort of thing for longer than anyone on here so I should be able to have a decent crack at it.
If you post what you got up to with mdhay, i may be able to see what's up with it.
I'll see to adding the pics later, watch this post.
An audi xD
no really, i'dd like the zone ships as a skin to normal races in HD like in pulse
Sorry if those sketches are giving you any trouble mdhay. I don't mind if you try to model it andy. Can't wait to see the results. :+
Here's a new track which takes place in an isolated volcanic island in Makana:
Track name:
- Volcannus
Track description:
- Makana is back once again, with a fiery scenery awaiting elite pilots to tackle the volcanic island. As racers venture through an actively volcanic track, they will discover the core of Volcannus with dangerous lava cascades underneath it and exiting the deadly volcano will encounter streams of lava venturing throughout the jungle and back in paradise. The heat is always on.
Ooh, Volcannus! Scary huh? reminds me of that track in Fusion where you could steer your ship into the lava and self eliminate! hehe
btw, which team does your track belong to? :)
Since Volcannus takes place in Makana, I would say Goteki 45 (since they are founded in Makana :D).
There we go:
http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/alb...pictureid=1547
Problem is, I dunno how to do the exposed engine parts/ the chassis properly.:(
wow that's a lot of straight lines xD. You're gonna have to learn how to use curved lines with curved follow-me lines and build up shapes to intersect and rub away. Normally I'd tell you how now, but it's quite complicated and I have plenty of homework that needs doing. :P It is a tricky design. If you save his design, you can go to File>Import it into your model so you can get some reference next to the model as you're designing.
Should we add pilots (for the next Wipeout Future) for each new teams?
@metakraken: I don't see why not, as long as they're relevant to a team in this thread.
So I haven't done much on wolf's design because I've been busy with coursework.
It is quite tricky, and it isn't looking exactly the same as the design, but I reckon it doesn't look too bad the way I've somehow got it looking so I think I might just go with a stylised render. So far I've done the front part. I know the proportions are off but whatever. xD
I tried an orthographic projection but it didn't work. The reason I couldn't get it perfect straight away was because the drawings weren't symmetrical, but whatever, I wasn't expecting them to be lol. You'd have to be quite serious and use a ruler, measure every single bit and do everything just perfect to get an orthographic projection - and I wouldn't expect anyone to do that for a sketch for here.
Yeah, I've got a week off after today so I'll try and get a model done by then.
