Socke Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) This thread is for all my WIP stuff, for now all I'm making are parts.Right now I'm working on some 1.875m parts, since I'm a huge fan of Orionkermin HGR, but some of his older parts aren't quite my taste. I also want to add some 1.875m sized parts and do it all in a style more similar to Ven's stock revamp.Anyway, heres what I've got so far.Javascript is disabled. View full albumThe tanks have the same capacities as the ones in the HGR pack. I've also added some adapter tanks for now.Download:Plans for next update:-SAS module-2 nosecones-flat adapters-2 kerbal pod-heatshieldAfter that I will concentrate on reworking the capsule I was already showing in this thread as well as engines.If you have tips on how to improve my work or ideas for more parts that could be needed be sure to write it in the thread, keep in mind I'm only a beginner.License CC-BY-SA Edited December 22, 2014 by Socke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach_XXII Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Socke, are will working on this style http://imgur.com/zKoweq4 .

Socke Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 Socke, are will working on this style http://imgur.com/zKoweq4 . I really like this art style/color and it fits well with the stock partsI didn't really change much from those models. Mostly just the color of the stripes and the top and bottom, which you can't see in that picture anyway. The blue stripes looked too colorful with the orange parts imo.

Whirligig Girl Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Where's the tank locking thing? The bits that extend and go into the grooves? I'd really like to just see tanks that still LOOK the same as the HGR tanks, but have the higher quality; like Ven does to stock parts. Emphasis on Russian/Chinese/nonNASA rocketry.

Socke Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) Heres the next two tanks finished.I'd really like to just see tanks that still LOOK the same as the HGR tanks, but have the higher quality; like Ven does to stock parts.Well you won't find those here Edited October 29, 2014 by Socke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptRobau Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 These tanks look real good. Better than Ven's revamp work if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socke Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) Added a downloadlink in the first post. For now the pack contains all parts visible here:I finally got flagDecal to work.Keep in mind that at this point it doesn't make much sense to use these parts without HGR.

Niemand303 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 That's really useful! Will you make crew cans of that size? I'd like to have my space stations with something smaller than a Hitchhiker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socke Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) So I've been back at the drawing board.The next three parts are gonna be a 1.875m to 1.25m two or three man pod (I'm thinking about making two variants with the same exterior but different interior), a fitting 1.25m to 0.625m parachute and SAS combo (so you can use standard and junior docking ports with the capsule) and a 0.625m launch escape system. That's really useful! Will you make crew cans of that size? I'd like to have my space stations with something smaller than a Hitchhiker. I'm planning to do station parts later on. The parts I have planned right now are gonna take a while since I have no experience with IVAs or parachutes and I probably need to learn some more 3D modeling to be able to get all the features I want on the capsule.

Kartoffelkuchen Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 These are great looking parts Socke! They really fit with Stock Parts, even more with NASA mission parts if you ask me! Keep it up:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Initar Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Man my Soy rocket is soooo much sleeker now!I had the same feeling about HGR fuel tanks, and THIS is the best complement ever!*+rep* Thanks a lot, and keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulsar Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Do you plan to make a fitting 1.875 nose cone as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Initar Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Do you plan to make a fitting 1.875 nose cone as well?+1 , and maybe one like this?Cannot remember where it comes from xDMaybe SXT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nose cones aren't hard to make so I'll put them in the next version.Sadly no new pics since I haven't really gotten to work on it over the weekend.But I've finished drawing out the pod and the other parts at least.I still need some text for the descriptions of the parts...Edit: Finished the exterior mesh of the pod: Edited November 3, 2014 by Socke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bs1110101 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Is that going to be a dragon? Looks way to small for that, if anything it should be a 3.125m part or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socke Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 Is that going to be a dragon? Looks way to small for that, if anything it should be a 3.125m part or something like that.I actually realized that the shape is pretty similar to the Dragon while sending this into orbit. But this is going to be a 2/3 man pod as written here:So I've been back at the drawing board.The next three parts are gonna be a 1.875m to 1.25m two or three man pod (I'm thinking about making two variants with the same exterior but different interior), a fitting 1.25m to 0.625m parachute and SAS combo (so you can use standard and junior docking ports with the capsule) and a 0.625m launch escape system.I took today to learn about how to get IVAs in the game, mostly to see how small the pod actually is in relation to Kerbals:It has more room than I thought. But that's good, since I plan to make a 3 man IVA too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGatsby Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Very neat stuff! I'm excited to see how the pod turns out, particularly the three man version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasmic Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Is that going to be a dragon? Looks way to small for that, if anything it should be a 3.125m part or something like that.A Dragon pod is actually slightly smaller than an Apollo pod. Generally, the Mk 1-2 command pod is assumed to be Apollo inspired (it has the same capacity and shape), so a Dragon in KSP should actually be just about 2.5 meters.
