Type B Space Fleet

Description:

Could you use an entire fleet in your next sci-fi adventure? Well this is your lucky day! Not just one, but five different ships in one .blend file!

Several years ago I was inspired by the wedge shape of the Star Wars "Star Destroyers" to create my own fleet along the same lines. Recently I revisited my old work and decided to see if I could do any better. (Hopefully my modeling skills have improved slightly.) In any case, I rather like the results, and thought I'd share.

Included are a battleship, cruiser, carrier, destroyer, and gunboat. The designs are a bit different than most -- perhaps it's an alien fleet? (There are two text files in the blend that help to explain my thoughts and to explain some modeling details.) And they are fairly low poly as well, at just under 310k verts for all five ships. And about half of that is in the greeble in the rear.

The two sets of preview pictures show the two hull materials included. All materials are pretty simple and should be easy to change or re-create if you use something other than the Blender Internal renderer.

So build your fleet today and conquer the universe tomorrow! Enjoy!

Peace.
