alright a few weeks ago I made a tanker, a week ago I made a royal liner for gallia,

both models are CMP and hitboxed, only not Hardpointed and textured,
for that I need someone who can do that for me,

the Tanker:

GHT-2 "Bufflesse" Gallic tanker

As part of a joint venture between the Gallic Royal Navy and EFL Oil and Machinery,
the Bufflesse Tanker works mainly under military contract to provide the front lines
with the much needed materials to repair and operate, and the Navy has become dependent on it.
Previous transports and freighters were unable to haul the sheer volume and size of some materials,
and were minimally useful. The Bufflesse is the result of decades of design and testing.
Built in the same shipyards as the Valor class Dreadnought,
the Bufflesse retains many of the same shapes and designs as the Valor, the Bufflesse is heavily armored,
covered in layers of hull panels that are suitable for capital vessels as the Valor.
This design has caused the Bufflesse Tanker to become very durable, but also very un-maneuverable. It is able to take sustained fire with no fear of risking its precious cargo.

Due to many attempts from various pirates,
the Bufflesse Tanker is commonly escorted by the Royal Navy. The Tanker,
due to its size is very vulnerable to attacks,
and requires military escorts to keep it from being a target.
Protected, the Bufflesse is very effective at fulfilling quotas,
but alone, it is a fat target for the harvesting.
Losing one of these tankers is disastrous for the EFL,
as it is very expensive to build and maintain a ship of such a sheer size.

The liner doesn't really look like a Liner, it look more like a versatile gunboat or a very large cruiser.

The tanker is awesome though.

Excellent work. I can only imagine how unwieldy this monster is going to be... should be fun. :)

You know Mike, what about adding textures to it and render it to see how it looks?

Yeh, Mike, the liner doesnt look like much offa liner. The sentance ; 'hotdog cramped together with wings' came to mind. The front too looks like 'Power down the guns! Eeer, captain? Do it! Imma hit them with my AXE HEAD!'

Try to make it longer, like all the other liners. I know Gallic designs don't look like Sirrian designs, but this is more offa armored transport than a Liner.

Okay. You've got the right idea, that's for sure; what you don't have are details and scale. Those things are, to be blunt, waaay too big. The Supertanker shouldn't be much longer than the Liner is now, and the Liner, to be honest, needs to be reworked; it looks more like a Gallic Yacht, but it's not, because it's considerably larger than the Cruiser. Basically, I think you need to look at the actual vanilla Liners (and the Royal Liner, since it's in that style) and try to aim more towards their proportions, especially with the windows.

Second, neither of them are detailed enough. Look at the Gallic BS and all the little nubbins - your ship needs those nubbins. Try to imitate the kinds of features already on the other Gallic ships (except, of course, make it look like a freighter.:laugh:), and, again, make sure to get the windows right (those are always a bugger, I know).

They're a start, though, especially the Tanker (even though it's larger than about half of the server's Battleships). Don't give up on them, they can be flightworthy if you stick at it.

A supertanker nearly the size of a battleship? I like how you continued that little tradition of extended platform wings, but the liner doesn't really look.. like a liner. It looks, to me, more like a gunboat, even a reworked lunch box. Keep in mind that people will be wanting and will be riding these (inRP). I'm sure their getaway would be much better spent upon something not quite so ugly. Remember liners tend to have a more extravagant front end, where the passengers would be, and then engines, etc, in the back.

Just my thoughts.
