DragonFly Assualt Transport

Sunday, August 6, 2006

Had some time to do some modelling recently, here is the result. Not finished yet, just the basic shape, the interior, hull plates and other embellishments still need to be added, not to mention texturing, but it gives you a rough idea.

The back story is that the DragonFly class Transport was used by the Independents for long range troop carrying (Special Forces insertion etc), supply drops and ferrying the wounded. After the war they were either scrapped or sold onto civilian buyers, where they found employment with smugglers and even as blockade runners due to their survivability and speed.

What program do you use for this? Is there a free program that will do that?

It's shiny-full.

3DS Max, it's about £3000 for the latest version. There's a few free 3D modelling programs about.
Blender: http://www.blender.org/cms/Home.2.0.html
Wings 3D: http://www.wings3d.com/

If you've never done any 3D modelling before the learning curve is somewhat steep, but rewarding once you get the hang of it.

Very nice!!

The engines look similar to the Copperhead from Final Fantasy. Fits nicely with the Firefly verse
