Here are the comparisons.

A lot bigger than i was expecting lol. quite the chonk, at least if i need the historical hull i can just copy yamato's. Either way hitachi isn't a yamato, but it's own ship really, but looks similar to her.

The other model isn't mine, but im using it as a base comparison. But yeah gives you a nice visual side-by side of how tall, wide, long etc each ship is.

Might do that at some point with my other ships even if they aren't textured, just line them up. Although ill have to watch the poly count in-case blender doesn't decide to blow up lol.

Also thonks! 'w'

Moar Hitachi pics. Ill add materials too her so she looks more like a ship and easier to see details.

Enjoy!

Ill have to think of a name for her plus stats, dunno what names the polish would use for battleships or larger ships in-general.

Well most of the larger polish ships were named after famous polish general ect. But, the largest polish built ship were destroyers and were named after weather, Thunderstorm, Lightning, Thunderbolt, and Gale (?). Although personally I think they would have hopped on the bandwagon and named them after counties, but its your ship so in the end its your decision.

Noice work @Cptbarney ! 
 

Would you like to make a refitted BADEN one day? Such as this one here...? 😊

Hmm, that's quite sexy. I'll will make this at some-point, ran into problems with ORP jadwiga with her normals on some of her parts, so ill have to fix those before i can texture the remaining parts. I might even re-do some of the UV maps or break up some islands so i can get better texel density on the hull and other larger parts of the model itself.

[Cptbarney]

In other news, i have ORP Jadwiga almost textured, just a few things to go like turrets, railing and shaft, plus finding some decent texture for the canvas at the back as well.

Also need to fix some issues with normals (bloody programme), but i should be done fairly soon.

Either way ill upload some moar pics of hitachi soon regardless.

[Cptbarney]

ORP Jadwiga's Hull atm. In substance.

Not sure if the wood is too dark or not.

 

[Cptbarney]

Made the hull brighter and with some werid pattern on it to make the other details stand out more, tommorrow ill give her a better material in-general.

I literally just discovered this topic, there are some cool things you posted here guys. I remember I that I did a simple aircraft carrier in KSP for a role play, which was inspired by Kuznetsov I'm not sure do I still have any screenshots of it, but if Ill find it I hope you won't mind it here.

Currently she looks like being moored somethere around Silent Hill - which is good, for ghost ships are cool.

Not at all! I created this thread so peeps could share designs in-general. Mostly your own designs and ones you've made in someway. But im not mental on what should be on this thread as long it follows general forum rules and keeps mostly to the threads topic and the first post (unless i change it).

I actually forgot how to make a proper metal material lol, but i have one done. When im done with ORP jadwiga i might do 'camos' like wows for her. same for any other ship i've posted here.

Every time I look at that rangefinder I can't help but laugh just from how big it is and it how it kind of reminds me of Space Battleship Yamato's antenna.

I took it from wargamings skin for yamato, its rangefinder i think is still longer than mine believe it or not.

I think you should save this texture, just in case - IMO, it really have this eery wibe of old horror games - might come handy later.

Yeah thats the one, odd skin. But i do like it regardless, especially the radar at the top lol.

Might see if i can do the same in substance painter and come up with a weird camo scheme for her. Or something interesting anyways, could even do emission lighting on her.

It's bloody hilarious. Just make it super obvious where the player is looking. Love the symbols though.

Yeah the symbols are nice, although frankly i always look at the turrets rather than radars or rangefinder as they are more noticeable for me.

Figured out i would do 20mm's for Hitachis LAA Triples based on oerlikions and the 25mm triples the IJN used to use.

Yeah I know most people look at the turrets to see where people are looking but from far away the rangefinder makes it easy. Great now I want animated rangefinders in UA:D.

Same, a bit sad they don't turn with your main guns on your ships, but eh i guess we will have to wait a bit for that.

[Cptbarney]

Ok moar, pic of hitachi gave her some new metal materials but they seem a bit too shiney for my liking so ill adjust that tommorrow.

Also a quick peak at the turrets for ORP as well!

enjoy!
