Roughnecks Retrieval Ship image - Starship Troopers: 1st Interstellar War mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
Currently being developed by Starside R&D, this is a Total Conversion mod for the game Star Wars: EaW Forces of Corruption from Petroglyph Studios. You decide who has the right to survive, the Terran Federation or the Arachnids and their allies, the Skinnies. It will include space & land skirmish and Galactic Conquest and is based on various aspects taken from the movie, animated TV series, and the original book. Command your Forces in the silence of space or the roar of the battlefield, be it the Terran Federation or the Arachnid/Skinny Alliance. Use old favorites as well as brand new units developed for this conflict.
A few days ago a Blender modeler who happens to also model high poly SST models from the movie & show contacted me about reference material for the Valley Forge. He had seen my low poly model somewhere and asked if he could use any reference material I might have for his own future high poly version. I said sure and sent him everything I had along with my model. He in turn let me use his Retrieval ship model as a reference for my own low poly version. Even though I stated here that I was taking a indefinite break from modeling, this was too good a chance to pass up. SST models in any form are few and far between and having access to an amazing build like his is rare to say the least. Anyway, here is my basic build and will be fine tuned but thanks to his help, it was very easy. He devoted all the major research, time, talent, etc. into his model, all I had to do was build lower poly versions of his parts.
His next build he's currently working on is the Dropship. You can check out his Blendoggery at the following site for images of his High poly version of the Retrieval Ship mine is based on. Blendoggery.blogspot.com
