Description

This is a project I did on a lark, to see if I could create something that was semi-made to order. (Actually, the order was "aerial battleship" and "lots of guns," so it wasn't super specific.)

Anyway, I got a little inspiration from the pipes for the urinals at my church/ venue (long story), and made this thing.

I'm sure that the name is a terrible mangling of how the Japanese should be constructed. Still...

There are some small mesh errors that shouldn't be a big deal if you don't get in super close. In the same vein, the lettering on the smaller gun turrets is upside down - for some reason, I didn't think that was a problem until I was so far along that fixing it would have undone a lot of work (so I just said, "whatever," and left it).

The zip file contains geometry in the following formats:

Blender 2.49b
Sketchup 7.1
Vue 7.4
OBJ

As well as the texture maps required.

If you're wanting to animate/ pose the model's weapons, getting it rigged up should not be an immense pain (because the discrete parts are separate, and named semi-logically), although it will probably be quite time consuming.

This model took me a while, so credit is definitely appreciated, and so is an opportunity to see your creations.
