Your original:

Altered by me:

I've not seen a real ship with the bulwark slope going across the face as you have it, so I changed it some as above. I can select the faces that show the texture distortion, and stretch them on the map into straight shapes, too.

Tater - nice catch. I'm sure that you are correct to remove that slope from running abeam the deck.

I agree a hatch should be added but it also appears (as best I can tell from this collection of ridiculously small images) that there are passageways running on both sides of the superstructure. Is it possible to model that in?

tater · 09-08-10, 09:51 PM

I can probably manage that

tater · 09-09-10, 12:20 AM

LOL.

Ada
Aden
Ansyu

Perhaps hit the "B"s next?

My real life name is Alberto, as those from my father, grandfather, and grand-grandfather also were, as does my elder son. And my mother's name is Ana.
What's wrong with the A?

Nice fixes on the Ansyu, BTW

Tater, when you finish your fixes, send me the model so I can correct the double screw issue and make damage and reflection model.

they show no aft deckhouse over the stern

There is one, only it's not as wide as the front bridge. You'd see it only from teh side or when the ship is angled enough. Sadly I could not coax the bridge model into that.

tater · 09-09-10, 08:16 AM

Will do.

BTW, I got the Aden damage models, etc, they seem to be fine.

Hitman · 09-09-10, 08:42 AM

OK, I'll hold the Ada ones until you give your OK to the rest of the ship, so I can be sure I'll work on the definitive version

tater · 09-09-10, 12:06 PM

Lemme see what I can do.

Cool, lots of details fixed

I have found a suitable superstructure and hull for Amakatsu (Mass producer coastal tanker):

Not perfect, but could work at least as placeholder. The silhouette is correct, even if many windows are wrongly placed.

The only problem is that part of the model comes from SH3

tater · 09-09-10, 04:25 PM

I used the top of Heito's bridge and simply changed it, BTW.

This is probably a stupid question but I'm curious as to what extra challenges that presents? Forgive my ignorance...

She looks good, too. I hope it works.

Not to pester you, Hitman, but any progress on AMAKATSU MARU?
