Realistic Rockomax "Mainsail" Liquid Engine

[SybyAbraham]

I was talking about the engine fairings. If I'm correct, you can copy and paste the model, and build the engine fairing around it.

Yep, you can do it that way.

Oh my god, this is amazing. You have an quite an eye for this stuff.

Personally, I'd like to see the nuclear engine and some particle effects, but you must be overwhelmed with all these requests...

Thanks! The poll looks like the nuclear engine is winning!

Looking amazing! I cant hold myself but ask, howd you study modeling?

Thank you! I am self-taught. I've used Digital Tutors's tutorials and tutorials online. I've been into 3D stuff since about a decade.

You're talented, and very much so. Great work here

You could save some time with modelling by using this, probably: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/43513-Blender-mu-import-export-addon ...and saving the imported .mu to Maya format.

Although, it looks like you're models are high-poly. Maybe you should keep doing what you're doing since it looks so nice

Thanks mate! I did use that. I got the .mu model into Blender using the importer, exported it out as FBX and got it into Maya so I could use the model as a reference. I also used an MBM converter to convert the textures into PNG so I could apply that to the converted model also to use as a reference.

Wow great job! I would really like to see the engines look like this is in the future without frying computers. Here's some rep.

Looks really really good!

I would just slightly decrease the bump strength of the orange part. (it sticks a bit out too much imho)

Keep up the good work.

By the way, would be great to hear some news from it!

Wow! That's awesome!

I'm really sorry about not keeping you guys updated. I've been really busy moving to another country. I shall continue working on the Skipper as soon as I can.

Thank you, guys!

That is awesome! You know what you should do? Model an actual kerbal.

Your rep debt has been paid, sir. Here you go.

Make any engine you want next, I don't really care much whether it's a LVT-45 or a LV-N nuke, as long as it maintains DA QUALITY.

My god! Thats fancy! Well, good luck modeling the skipper!

[jaddbo]

i think that it looks absolutely amazing and what is next? (also when?) and where can i get this as a replacement texture?

[kahlzun]

Slight necro, but I am still interested in seeing the rest of your work!

Maybe this is how "Mainsail" looks in KSP 3.0

Hmm nice! I like the scratches and stain, very realistic!

But, if I may, it feels a bit.. uh.. too gentle? The MainSail is one of the biggest engine in the game, I'd like to _feel_ that raw power
