[PIC] Cartel Inc. Presents - The Avanti TL - New Colours!

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Thu, 5. Dec 02, 04:04

Based on the popular Avanti TS, this incredibly large statement of style and finesse is all you need to seal the deal. Included is a rear mounted landing bay, atmospheric capability, and 8 BHEPT turrets that have been hidden below the deck plating so that they don't interfere with the clean lines. All of that, plus one and a half times the cargo space of the Argon Mammoth make this mobile command centre a must for the discerning trader.

Also available in:
Black

Chrome

Jersey Cow

Ferrari Red with Racing Stripe

Thanks

But, just so you know, that's geometry - not mapping

Every plate is an object.

oh! sorry for not getting to you earlier.. time for bed- actually past it 2:12 am

... the color right.... well don't make it like a solid colour with those textures- it makes it look like a toy.... perhaps something along the lines of CJH's ... https://www.egosoft.com/x2/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1219

the ship(s) you made is(are) really nice- but I hate that color- really takes out the pleasantness of a spacesgip and replaces it with the cheap platics feel of a kids toy- but that's just my opinion..... be careful not to make it too coorful... it will be like the big scary ship was only carrying a mob of clowns

make sure your colors aren't too light- keep 'em dark... if you have to put red on- spatter it... or put it in a few spots only- dark blue could work really nice... make it like "camouflauge clothing" colors. but not like a cow

I thik you get the idea right? :well thanks fr hearing me out

Snokid · Post by **Snokid** » Thu, 5. Dec 02, 08:27

Also Im sure you have nire than 'nough experience to make it look like a spaceship.

remember not too many bright colors... no lines straight down the ship that are bold and stand out

and make sure it doesn't look like a cow

Snokid · Post by **Snokid** » Thu, 5. Dec 02, 08:31

oh no! you made it look like a cow

sigh... the ferrari.. too bright!! chrome- strange/interesting... black- from that angle it looks stupid.. change those textures too... and that dorsal fin do it now!! now!!

bump... agin.

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Thu, 5. Dec 02, 12:49
