Raider

Here's a lowpoly ship I've thrown together. It's a fast hit and run ship usually classified as a raider. I don't know what the exact polycount limit will be, so I've made it in two versions: 1. A lowpoly ship with some extras to make it look less bland (783 triangles) 2. A lowpoly ship with purely t...

Alien animal (just for fun)

I was goofing around with some very old models, after some tinkering I created a somewhat elephant-ish creature. Behold: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/Stormwolf2000/Orion/animal1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/Stormwolf2000/Orion/animal2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v10...

That's why i called the ones that didn't impress me "Underdeveloped", because i don't presume to say that with more thought and work any of these ideas couldn't become much more complete and compelling. But " humanoid " is still a big detraction in my book. I've put a few supris...

He he, I gave you the bare minimum of info for the Iskarn based on a really early draft.

Well, I've heavily revamped the entire Iskarn idea while working out some crude 3D models for them.

I think that I'll just add the new story to the original thread :wink:

I'm currently working out two designs, a humanoid biomechanical warrior and a morphing enery creature. I'll post the energy creature some time later.

Meanwhile, the biomechanical warrior got its own thread:

Biomechanical warrior V0.1 (56K warning)

After the "aliens that look alien" thread I decided to create a prototype for a biomechanical creature. I made it fairly humanoid, eventhough that wasn't the idea behind the previously mentioned thread. Although I should point out that I'm not happy with this model since I rushed it quite ...

Aliens that look alien.

Hi there peeps, I've been going over some alien designs after the alien head thread. I've come to the conclusion that we shouldn't make aliens look humanoid to make them truely alien. So I came up with a studymodel for a for a electric jellyfish type alien: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v101/Sto...

I take it the spore thing would be completely useless against a ship made of energy? Yep, the spores wouldn't do a damm thing. Now this on the other hand would: Energy distorter A weapon primarily targeted at energy based constructs/areas. Shields and energy based structures are weakend or even com...

This is funny. I have done an aquatic alien head sculpt lately too: http://www.optisch-edel.de/junk/hoenir.jpg Very nice, I bet you put quite a bit of work into that model. I've only put 20 or so minutes into the lowpoly heads I made so far (hence why they don't really look all that great). @Skaro ...
