Prepare to welcome three new shipmates
 

Hi chaps,

I havfe been working on three new sleeping crewman figures. At the moment they don't look much because they don't have any textures, they don't say anything, in fact they don't do anything, that's the beauty of sleeping figures :DL

A couple of screen shots below:

I'll keep you posted....

I'm still finding my way with all this 3D stuff so if anyone has a "simple" £D painting tutorial handy or can reccommend ideally a free prog to do it then I can get cracking on texturing 'em. I thought one of them could be wearing a nice kriegsmarine sport shirt like the one below:

Good show mate!!:D

That's the stuff!
 

Now, if someone can work out how to make those guys vanish from the bunks when action stations is called. It bothers me when in combat to see those guys lounging around as if nothing were going on.

speechless
 

You are a magician matey...:rock:

@Aces

Don't know if this may be of use to you shipmate but it has tuts as well as a free open source 3d thingymajig programme, forgive me if you have already perused the site.

Aces,

Any luck with those new ship mates?

I don't know anything about 3d work, but I was wondering if it might be easier to model them as objects under blankets with just their head poking out? A blanketed body is pretty abstract.

That's a good idea.
Model them under a blanket to save polys then use those to do a bit better detail else where.
Like the heads.

Hi chaps,

I have textured 2 out of three and will have something to show you later. I like the blanket idea.

Cheers

Looking forward to seeing it, Aces! :up:

FM's crew compartments are off-the-chart excellent, but do feel a little too empty. I think the sleeping crew members is a perfect way to give it a sense of more life without straining the FPS!

Don't forget to give one of them a "Dear John" letter.

Seriously, I agree about the blankets. Although for the sake of diversity, maybe one figure sleeping without a blanket, so we can see what he's wearing.

Any chance of engine room figures? :DL

Well you got all set up:yeah:. I nice picture of super human with uniform...... wait.... wtf is this? Is this a krigZmarine special uniform to prevent little kids get close to uboat or something? And you call us cheap subhumanZ :D. Damn hypocrites :nope: ;)

ohh i think this picture is also a nice handy pin up target to play darts isnt it ?:hmmm:

very nice developments aces:yeah: One possibility could be a cook in the kitchen now that somethin's cooking?

Hi all,

Just wondering how this mod is coming along?

Thanks!
