Envisioning life-size 3D models of the Kol and Marza

from Sins Forums

I don't know if there are very many, if any, Unreal Tournament fans in this community, but one of my many goals involves eventually re-visiting the Unreal Editor and continuing to learn it. It will be a while before I do this, but it's on my list. For one of the maps, the arena includes a window that overlooks a space dock, and in that dock, is a large capital ship (life-size model) from FreeSpace (the game), but today, I imagined another window showing the Kol or Marza (or both) from Sins of a Solar Empire. That would give me chills to see a life-size 3D model of either ship. These would not be easy models to make and I would either recruit a friend or someone professional to do it. Alternatively, I could give it a try, but I'm not sure I have time to learn an application such as 3D Studio Max. None of this might be possible, but it's fun to think about.

The 7 Deadly Sins Super Star Destroyer -Executor- is 18,717 units long... about the 19 kilometer listed on wookiepedia.

The Marza Beta is 1601 units, about 1.6 km or a mile long.  Pretty standard that 1 unit = 1 meter.

The Argonev Starbase is about 2328m; 2.3 km long

My Favorite Unreal Tournament map was the one with the gigantic bathroom and all the players and bots were the size of ants. That was a blast.

I have not played that one, Bellack. Is that in UT 1 or one of the later tournaments? While I really like the later ones  (2003, 2004, and UT 3) - great engine - my heart has been with the original, classic UT. Aside from Sins, I've been playing that. Since I re-installed last month, I've been playing the same map (a custom map called The City), so I need to get out of my rut and diversify.
