(Archive) Dominance-class Battlecruiser Released!

Image
It's this time of the year again! Here's an early XMAS-Present: The Dominance-class Battlecruiser! The Dominance, like the Warhammer, is one of the oldest models I have made so far (although massively upgraded through the years), which makes me very pleased to have completed this one after all the time. The huge Dominance-Class Battlecruiser, like the Warhammer, is the product of collaboration between the Corellian Empire and the ESS. Designed and constructed shortly after the foundation of the ESS it takes design elements of classical imperial ships like the old Vengeance- and Venator-class combined with high-end ESS weapons and shield technology. These elements make it the ultimate next generation warship combining the roles of command ship, carrier and destroyer. [Me from the Future]: Ehm, it's called a Supercarrier now!

(Archive) Warhammer-class Heavy Cruiser

Image
Finally done: A ship that is older than this site itself, the Warhammer-class Heavy Cruiser!  This is one of the very first original designs I ever made. Evolved from a rather simple comic sketch this coloss has finally turned into a fully fledged OPT - yay me! :D The Warhammer-Class Heavy Cruiser introduces a new generation of heavy warships that make the link between normal and super-heavy battleships almost six kilometers in length the Warhammer is superior to any common destroyers and cruisers, while state-of-the-art propulsion systems enable it to easily outmaneuver super-class ships.

(Archive) Dhilani Stingray Released!

Image
Well, this is sort of the last one for the Dhilani ships. As of now this is the last core model to be done for the Blue Phantom Project. There are some more models in consideration but they haven't reached a final approval stage yet. So for the moment, this is the last one, bringing the project range to a nice 49 OPTs. The lightly armed Stingray is a small personnel transport that is mainly used by Dhilani high honorables and statesmen. Although it is capable of long-distance travel, it's yet mostly used for short-range journeys, as Dhilani officials prefer the safety of heavily armed battleships for longer journeys.

(Archive) Inferno II-class Cruiser Released!

Image
Been long enough!, time for a new release! While this ship is not (yet) official part of the Blue Phantom Project, but still it has become part of the TBPP universe through multiple battle threads over at the XWA Upgrade boards. An old sketch, which I had originally drawn for a Dhilani troop transport, would step up as the design for this heavy battle cruiser. [Me from the Future]: Of course it's part of the Project ye dimwitt! Oh and I renamed it Despot-class Cruiser now. Inferno II remains as the actual ship's name tho!

(Archive) UPMF-style Hangar released!

Image
Alright, this one's for my granny who turned 74 today!! One more OPT done for the Blue Phantom Project. The UPMF-style hangar will replace the default or upgrdaed Calamari Hangar and add a bit more of a TBPP feeling to the game. Enjoy!

(Archive) XT-300 Piranha v2 Released

Image
Whee, that was a quick one! OK, after upgrading the BRX series ships, I went on in my cockpit-flash and reworked another flyable craft: The fast and furious Piranha. Like the recent releases it now also has a proper cockpit and Exterior model.

(Archive) Re-Release: BRX Mania!

Image
Well, I've been teasing you long enough! This time I present you not one but FOUR OPTs at a time. OK, admittedly, they're rather similar, but it's the little differences that make life interesting, right? So... Two revisions and two new releases is what I have here. By now most people know the BRX-700 Combat Yacht and the notorious Barracuda. After those two were released I had decided pretty soon that they needed to be redone, needed a cockpit and more detail. So I started reworking them. In the process of reworking the ships - and in the course of several Battle Threads a new ship found my intenrest, the Black Scorpion. With some more head-twisting hours of conceptioning I finally had the perfect background. Like Vasudra and Otana in original XWA were the player's personal ships, the Black Scorpion is the property of official TBP player character Mryna Qhalic. To make things more interesting - and justify some rather exotic design ideas I whipped together the 'Sco...

(Archive) Dhilani Leviathan Released!

Image
This day will be long remembered! Well .. at least I hope ;) Finally, after months of waiting here's a new release for your Dhilani collection. Not only that, it is as well the last of the capital ships that needed to be completed. Only a handful other objects remain to be done to finish the modelling part for the Blue Phantom Project!. The Dhilani Leviathan is the pride and the heart of the Dhilani space armada. 5.7 kilometers in length it is supreme to any other vessel of its time.

(Archive) Dhilani Mammoth Released!

Image
Scratch one more Dhilani Cruiser!  The Dhilani Mammoth is now finished and available for download! This ship has been derived from teh Dhilani Warbird and acts as carrier and tactical communications platform for the Dhilani's dreadded fighter swarms. That's it for now. Go out there and have fun! ;)

(Archive) Dhilani Warbird Released!

Image
Again?! No seriously, that was faster than I had expected - I had planned at least one or two months for this one! :o!!  The Dhilani Warbird is the primary killing machine within the Dhilani armada, a warship designed for a single purpose: destruction.  That's it for now. Go out there and have fun! ;)

(Archive) Dhilani Trident Released!

Image
Booya, there goes another! Finally, the first real Dhilani Capital ship, the mighty Trident , is completed and ready for download!  The Dhilani Trident acts as both troop carrier and battleship and is one of the most common ships encountered in Dhilani Invasion fleets. That's all this time, I think. Luckily the XWAU has some new stuff coming up soon. ;)

(Archive) New Release: Recusant-Class Destroyer!

Image
Another one of these things I had lying around almost-complete! The Commerce Guild Support Ship aka. Recusant-class Destroyer is the final Capship Relese for my upcoming ROTS - Battle over Coruscant-Shipset.  This model has been kindly donated by EvilelJedi from the Warlords Mod for Homeworld 2 and was converted to XWA by Berruga. I've made some minor tweaks and added a few textures.
