Deskjob Manufacturing

[vedrit]

The company Deskjob Manufacturing was once a simple toy manufacturer, creating whatever was ordered. However, once the space-race began and rocket parts were in high-demand, Deskjob turned to supplying the new age of exploration!

The parts are free to use (Just ask me first), and are set up with stock place-holder values. Also, I'm not the greatest at making textures, so if you want to use a part, but don't like how it looks, please provide a reference image or something so that I can try my best to make it look how you want. If you already have a texture, great. I can UV map just fine.

What exactly is it?

[vedrit]

I designed it to be used with life support mods to carry water. There are two parts, the large cylinder and the adapter at the bottom. I didn't realize I was on the wrong tab in game when I took the screenshot. I'm fixing a few issues with the textures, so I'll update when I'm satisfied

When I crunched the numbers, this tank will hold 10 of TAC's largest tank, so I'm reworking the texture to make it a life support module (It will carry all 3 resources needed for the Kerbals)

Good idea, especially for the users with part count issues. Though it seems a bit big. It would be fine attached to a space station, but you should consider adding smaller version for spaceships.

[vedrit]

Now that I see just how big it actually is, yeah, I intend to make smaller, much smaller, versions.

This is also useful for long trips or bases. 3 kerbals can survive on this for roughly 959 days.

I made a smaller version, but it's still 2 meters in diameter, so it'll hold a lot even though it's 1/4 the size of the larger tank. I'd make more, but its 3:30 AM. I hope these get someone's attention so I'm not wasting my time, haha.

I like the rounded bottle shape a lot. Those would make great fuel tanks for deep space vehicles if they where covered in gold foil.

[vedrit]

Hmm... gold foil you say....

[Tommygun]

I have this gold foil texture I put together in Gimp, if you want it?

Thanks Tommy, but I have a site that provides non-commercial stock images. I made a tank, but I need to fiddle with it's mapping to get rid of the lines, and I think the normal map is slightly out of alignment
