Any modders need any modelling done?

Looks great, but the flat back is a thing.  Do you think you can make it curved?  The back that is, the front is fine, I assume you will be changing some of the colors?

Can do. I wasn't sure how large you were thinking of it being, and the very small parts tend to have flat backs. I should ask what size I should aim for.

 

As for the colours: yeah, I'm just showing it with a matcap material now. I'll colour/texture once the model itself is done.

Oh, so, regarding size, let's say that on a 1.25m tank/engine, it should be about 1/2 meter in each direction (avg).  Once you have it for one size, I'll just make configs for the larger engines.

Something like this?

 

I'll deal with texturing tomorrow. Is there a style/theme I should stick to? I don't see any other Engine Igniter parts to match to.

[linuxgurugamer]

Yes, looks great.

I assume you just buried the base in the tank? That would make it simpler, I think, similar to the way the extendable ladders get mounted.

I don't have any special texturing in mind, stockalike would be fine, i guess.  Maybe with a warning symbol of some kind?

As I said, I'm still learning what I'm doing with texturing, but here is an attempt. The textures are 2k, so obviously I can scale them down if needed, and I need to fix the weird normal artifacts on the chassis.

It helps if I actually remember the embed

You could try and do a better job than I did if you were interested.

I think this mod already has what you are looking for:

I don't see that I replied, sorry.

Yes, this is looking wonderful.  And, after thinking about it, I probably won't need to rescale it for larger engines, there really wouldn't be any need for that.

[Tokamak]

@linuxgurugamerWhoops, sorry for dropping the ball with this. How would you prefer me to share the files with you?

You might want to talk to Angel-125 and see if you could work something out - that pic looks like it could be nearly an in-game photo using his DSEV parts.  (Only they're more detailed...)

unfortunately all of Angel-125 parts are license under an all right reserved license. We need part models license under an open license that benefit the community.

Also a new model  we could give it a KSPIE twist, like this more realistic looking version, something like this

You can still use them.  'All Rights Reserved' just means you need to ask for & receive permission first. Now, I do understand you've had some trouble with this concept in the past, but it really isn't that complicated. You simply ask 'yo can I use your stuff? I'll be sure to give you credit.' and they reply with 'sure mate go right ahead' or 'no, I'm afraid it will be used in a way I don't agree with' or something like that.

i need some simple models. the ckan moderator pointed me to this thread.
i used a reskinned gigantor at 10x scale for my solar sail mod. i just need something that size and shape that can fold up like a gigantor.
an emblem or flag placement would be a bonus. this is just for fun and my first attempt at modding.
