Takemikazuchi - For now
I think I've looked at this one long enough. I'll make the crew that I really wanted and come back to this one for sure -- it took me this long to put together. Labels: aegis class, M1 Astray, Murasame, Takemikazuchi |

Still working on the water and adding more ships. Conveniently running out of memory a great deal so I'm probably going to have to bump that up in the near future. The astrays - the dumbed down version of the red frame created earlier as well as the flight unit, need shields and guns and the ship itself could use more detail -- and maybe roll back the fog a bit.

Ok, at this point I'm thinking [something is better than nothing] so I fired up lightwave and started on the surfacing for the flight pack. That's about all I've started lately. I'd be great to get back into this with my whole arse soon. I think I'll totally resurface the Astray(s) as well now that we're on that subject.

Well... I'm pretty sure it's a little too large. Nothing like a look-see to know if you're going in the right direction. Anywho, I've been busy these last few weeks with some coding issues so I had to put some of this on the old back burner, but hopefully I can get back to this asap.

I think most everything is there, at least as placeholders while I detail some of the bits and bobs. Some parts need to be shaped properly, but I'm fairly certain that it's usable thusly -- that is, after jiggling some parts around. Oh, sure, I have to drop some parts downward a bit and gussy up some other parts. I don't want it to be too poly heavy as the Astray is already memory demanding as it is. Hopefully I can start texturing within the next few days. Labels: Astray Red Frame, Flight Unit, M1 Astray, Striker Pack |
I confess that I'm more than a little disappointed with Bandai's move to include a rehashed version of the tactical arms for the MG Astray Red Frame. I had hoped they would instead have included the flight unit. I went ahead and started dabbling on the flight pack based on what Bee-Craft illustrated in the Perfect Grade instruction manual. Kind of ho-hum but I think that in the end it will nice to have. Labels: Astray Red Frame, Flight Unit, M1 Astray, Striker Pack |
