HMS+Beagle+Model

=HMS Beagle= Comprised of 29 custom sculpted primitives. Will eventually be scripted to take visitors on a tour of the islands (what destinations?).

Design:
Using charts found on [|The HMS Beagle Project] web site, the HMS Beagle ship was roughed out using basic prims. Using [|Sculpt Studio] (made by TheBlack Box), sculpted primitives were made for the sails, the masts, and the hull, which is in three pieces

Sculpt Maps:

The texture used for the sails was made using some noise and blur filters in Photoshop: [|canvas sail.tga] Using some different filters, the wood texture used for the masts is this: [|Beagle Wood.tga] Finally, the hull texture was created using several layers: [|Hull Texture.tga] The front of the ship needs a special texture because of the bowsprit and jib boom being on the same sculptie as the forecastle: [|Hull Texture Fore.tga]

During some publicity events where signage is needed, this poster has been created for use with the HMS Beagle model: [|HMS Beagle Nameplate.tga]
