Xenos Snubline

[aerelm]

Latest Update:

- Base texture for rest of the line
- Redid the aux engines on bomber
- A whole bunch of technical cleanup

Only thing left to do at this point (apart from finalizing some technical stuff) is the custom decal and applying the poll results to the textures.

The ideation process for these ships was a collaboration with XA faction, and their suggestion was instead of Mad Maxing it up, we could potentially explore an alternate approach more fitting to FL and actual background of Xenos outside of the fun little stereotype of rednecks some people like to play, so admittedly, this might not be what most people imagine in their head when they hear "xeno", so feel free to voice your opinions and make recommendations if you feel strongly against this.

The idea was to build the line around what an older generation of Defender (decommissioned lib lawful fighter) might've looked like, and how it might end up looking like today if Xenos somehow got their hands on its blueprints and tried ducttaping some together using readily available CTE materials and black market liberty lawful spare parts, and having to cut corners and make compromises in the process to make a larger scale production of it more feasible for their limited resources.

So think: Older model Guardian, made poorly.

Also,

There's now a Discord server for Disco Modelers to share their on-going projects and gather feedback:

Main updates, major discussions and polls will still be handled via forums, but if you're interested in keeping up with the more incremental updates and providing real-time feedback, feel free to join.

Update:

- VHF has textures now.

So, while this thing was being worked on a few suggestions popped up. The general style of the textures in the main p3d link in the op is more or less final (apart from some fine-tuning), but to decide which style of details to go with, since there are a few options available figured it'd be a good excuse to do a community poll since we haven't done one of those in a while:

Note: The decal is placeholder, the final version is not gonna use the wiki image. A custom version of that same logo will be made to fit the ship based on which texture style gets the vote.

Damaged all the way.

Personally I would take symetrical with missing plates, but such option is not available.

I'm losing my marbles because people keep messaging me on Discord and asking when these will be done. I have no idea why they don't just go straight to you, but for the sake of my sanity could you give them all an answer?

Went to look as after my story contest submission I felt like maybe I wanted a Xeno but I am not a fan of the Eagle line and use the IW/BW ships on other chars already. This looks perfect so I wanted to check status.

Is this:

really all that's keeping it? Can it maybe be done without a decal or by using a place holder one?

These look too good to be rusting away(haha) in my opinion. Is there anything people can assist with?
