HMS Surprise

She is a pretty faithful and inspiring model, to be sure! :keith
There are no bow chasers, but there are stern cannons, just above the cabin.
 
For those who are wondering exactly how much progress I have made with the Surprise, here's what's left to do:
  • Fix the camera issue (when fully zoomed out, the camera centres too high up the ship)


This is OT but I ran into another ship with the camera centered too high, so that the ship is down on the bottom of the screen, which is mostly showing sky. It's the class 2 East Indiaman. In GMViewer I have found a camera locator. Is it that which needs to be lowered, or is there something else as well?

I'm not sure. I think I tried moving a camera locator before, but I don't think it had the desired effect.
Then again, it may not have been to try and address a high-camera issue, so who knows? :wacko:
 
I'm afraid someone else is going to have to step in here. I moved the camera locator on the Jamaicaship1 down a full digit with no effect. No idea what to do next.

Some photos hoping they should be viewed, what do you think? Personal i like more this version, and it's 47000 poly, whit full gun deck...
 
WOW! Extra details and less polys! Two-for-one deal! :woot
Two things:
1) what happened to the figurehead?
2) when are you likely to finish it?

EDIT: one more thing- if you've modelled the interior, will you make the stern windows transparent?
 
I have to put the figurehead, i hope to finish her in less than 4 days, it least only some thing on the stern and the rudder... Yes, the windows are transparent ;)
 
Another pic, ship's already finished, some things only, what do you think? And also there is a small surprise in the cabin

Here she has all guns retired...
 
Ha! LOL! A small SURPRISE in the great cabin! Thats a good one Jack.

Man she just gets better and better.
 
She`s looking damn great, no dobt about that! A little detail is still missing, if I may say this. The lower part of the bowspit looks rather "naked", there is normaly a big pack of ropes connecting it with the front section of the keel for stabilisation, I guess. However, you'll find it at the Google-pics taken in San Diego
 
You're doing wonderfully, Jack! I particularly like the new textures!
Be sure to let me know when you want me to merge my locator work with it... :wp
 
I hope really early ;)
No i'm doing the path, next conversion and some testing and i'll upload it, i made some points where when a mart fall down it looks damaged, for example at midship appear a "hole", i'm not sure about therm, big like two gunports, what about?

Takeda one, yes i have to add it and some other things to the bowsprit, it's not finished yet...

That sounds interesting; can't hurt to try it. :yes

Hi everyone, i converted the ship, it need only the figurehead and the detail that Takeda was talking, what do you think?
 
I love the cello in the cabin! Now we just need the good Dr. Maturin as a character. :onya
