@Zukeenee: Now thats a good answer for a ship submission feedback. Filled with details that were not of your liking leading to the answer for rejection. It would be great if the entire thread was filled with such guidence answers on how to make the model slightly better instead of standart "no all is fine". Dont get me wrong, I really appreciated your full answers.

There is one thing about the "skeletal" issue which will be possibly fixed - right now the model is still under review but primary its nearly 90% ready. The only thing that Aeternus proposed as an improvement for the overall model was its size reduction with 15-20%. In that way it will look more smaller and the weapon platform wont look like that long cuz its length may be reduced as well.


Quote:Your Bretonian Gunship is to the vanilla Bretonian Gunboat as that Rheinland Battleship is to the Rheinland Carrier.
As for your opinon about the RMbs next to the RMcarrier - as I said thats why these two ships looks great cuz they are similar and with slight differences. Same thing must be done for all ships following an official vanila line.

Quote:I can see that you were trying to emulate the Bretonian style, but the similarities are really only evident in the general shape itself
The similarities between the bretdessi and bretgunship are ending with the weapon platform. Without it the ship looks totaly different but still containing elements from the vanila line making it look good when nearby.

I really like the idea of adding ships to the bretonian fleet and a light gunboat seems a very good start for that.

As the BPA mentioned the RP for a light gunboat is there and welcomed by all parties in lawful space. So its is very important to motivate people in bringing up ideas like this one and every idea is a win for bretonia.

But I have a conflict with myself in this model. It has the classical bretonian style indeed, but I miss something new in the fleet. The "fishy" "bubble" thing is needed to be bretonian after my opinion, but in that model i just see the Bretonian Destroyer

Edit: I think it would fit then more, if that model becomes the heavy gunboat and the old design a little smaler becomes the light gunboat

bret ships are a little fishy, but this one is more insecty

can the 'arms' of the hoop be reduced a little, so the mouth is reduced in height?

Don't think Bretland needs the second gunny. Only BHG has two of them so far..

Your gunny isn't too good cause of it's size, yeah, but some other factions have heavy boats too.
Plus, it has a cool FG.
It looks nice and i love it just for that.

P.S.: Why do you say bret shipline is unloved? It's the only house military shipline that has non-vanilla fighter model (Paladin).

People cannot deal with the facts and prefer to reject the RP behind the faction line, everyone does it when it comes to ship ad-dons, it is not Bretonians only so you cannot blame them for that- unlawful capital ships Corsairs and Outcast with even 2 Battleships and other houses with 2 as well for example.
It is funny how they does not like the best heavy GB in game because they have no idea how to fly it.

Frankly, it's a decent try, but the texturing is awful. You've got waaaaaay too much stretching all over the model and the tiling factor is too small on the mesh. The mesh itself is a bit too basic too, I think. Definitely looks like a step down in terms of quality than the Bretonian gunboat itself.

The connection of the underhang to the main body needs work. It looks really sloppily done, the underhang itself is frail and there's some bits sticking off the arm bits that look like they don't belong.

consistency and completeness is a good thing and it is important too. it's one of Discovery's strengths. but I often wonder at the amount of resistance people will put up against new content being added especially when it is pretty well designed. I mean for it to have even a passing consideration for aesthetic and universe consistency is a bonus really when it looks this good to begin with.

it's not easy to get to this point. sure, it looks a bit weird. bit too skeletal, bit too sharp, bit too stubby. but it's consistent and quality enough and matching enough with bretonia that in-game in leeds you wouldn't bat an eye. and also, if all the ships looked alike nothing would be half as interesting. I thought the bretonian destroyer looked weird the first time I saw it. I thought that the bretonian gunboat was strange compared to the other bretonian ships. so once you consider all of that, it's a new ship. it's another ship, to add to your universe, and add to current storyline with gallia (gallian lower craft too maneuverable we need gunship), and you want to stop that? there is no perfect. there is only the standard and I think this thing meets it.

so I recently started exploring Coronado. I must say you're all doing a wonderful job.
so I recently started exploring Koeln. I must say you're all doing an amazing job.
some time ago I explored Rousillon. Impressive. Particularly the music on the planet that was a nice surprise.
so I recently started exploring Omega-55. LOL... NOMADS. LOTS AND LOTS OF NOMADS. SHOOTING THINGS. I GOT THE HELL OUT OF THERE. (and I was thinking, jeez I can't remember what that one was from the news. I hope I don't run into a nomad system)
recently started exploring Omega-41. what did you guys do to the star? that new effect there, that's impressive.

I can see quite some effort in this new model, but I personally don't like it. Reminds me of a smaller version of the destroyer.

In my opinion, the current gunboat is already well-balanced enough against snubs.
