Advanced Member Gary Dave Posted May 17, 2016 Advanced Member Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Nice, I really like where this is going. It's like a submarine, but for the air! Can you give any information on how you achieved things like the netting wrapped around the balloon things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Awiz Posted May 18, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Hi ! To Gary Dave: Thanks ! For grids - I used a sphere tool (in voxel mode) with a curve stroke - it automatically repeats the form of the surface For a frames - I use vox layers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member Ballistic_Tension Posted May 21, 2016 Advanced Member Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) that mesh/netting looks great how you get it so thin and spaced right is that free handed? what brush radius did u use 4.50 . just me but the 2 stacks could be bigger /wider like queen mary big . also how many triangles when doing net looks to be at 350,000 . Looks great so far. also how it repeats the form Edited May 21, 2016 by Ballistic_Tension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor Tony Nemo Posted May 22, 2016 Contributor Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 The figures really help the perception of scale. I agree on the stacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Awiz Posted May 22, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Hi all !! Thanks to everyone who is looking for my work about the net -- summary contains ~7.600.000 triangles when I did the network - I have used voxel layer with a high density [8x] or [16x] and sphere brush with a small radius (I select approximately - doing a few tries ) - I paint in several stages - and combined in a single layer -- at the end I use resempler - and reduce the number of triangles to a reasonable level for me. for drawing smoothly and in regular intervals, I'm doing extra geometry in a ghostly layer and the surface shape is repeated automatically - if used a curve stroke - I showed example earlier about stacks - Queen Mary is more modern example of what I use ( it seems to me) - for references I look fotos a steamships at the end of the 19th century or beginning of 20 century - like this http://heiup.uni-heidelberg.de/journals/index.php/transcultural/article/viewFile/9363/3245/10355 or this http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3m09K3n43Uk/U_eEXThrn4I/AAAAAAAAEEA/Nlv1nP1PvvI/s1600/Gondolier%2BDrawing%2B1.JPG or this https://thedisorderofthings.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/steamship_islander_leaving_vancouver_british_columbia_for_skagway_bay_crop.jpg I think it is more suitable for steampunk ( it seems to me) - P.s. I use Google translate Edited May 22, 2016 by Awiz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor Tony Nemo Posted May 22, 2016 Contributor Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Your right about the Queen Mary but using your references, the stacks still appear about 50% smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Awiz Posted May 22, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 well, I'll think about the size of smokestacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Awiz Posted May 23, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hi ! to Tony Nemo - I did the smokestacks a little more larger (~30%) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Awiz Posted May 23, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 and I decided to call the airship - "Phileas Fogg" - in honor of the famous character of the book by Jules Verne https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phileas_Fogg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor Tony Nemo Posted May 23, 2016 Contributor Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hi ! to Tony Nemo - I did the smokestacks a little more larger (~30%) smokestacks.jpg I do think that is an improvement in an already fine piece of work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
