Mantis Class Cargo Vessel

This is another redo as a technical drawing. There are some differences: I've paid closer attention to scale, included some metre rules, and left the details of the decks largely blank for other to fill in according to their own requirements.

It is a different concept of the vessel than that in the CMOM, so you should consider it a civilian version. For my own needs, this is going to be a law enforcement ship. I have also treated the aft section as a detachable life-boat. It retains the auxillary fuel cells and auxillary thrusters, but not the aft thrusters.

An Alternative APC and Mobile Command Vehicle

A couple more images - both of these models had interiors I was able to render and do some cut-outs for. The first is an alternative APC design with a little more ground clearance than the classic one from Aliens. Then there is a heavy mobile command vehicle. I was thinking of using both of these for the Royal Marines.

Retro-Future Green Screen Images for the Alien RPG

 

Among some of the more interesting new games that have come to my attention are those from Free League, a Swedish publisher. Forbidden Lands, Vaesen, Tales From the Loop, Things From the Flood, and Alien have all found their way into my collection. At some point, I will have things to same about all of them, and in particular, the Year Zero Engine, which is the game system they all share.

Alien is one of the games that I’m most interested in running and this has led me to try my hand at producing some material for use in play.

I am not an artist or designer, so to produce the images I wanted, I sourced some 3D models which I rendered in some inexpensive software, and then hacked about with the results to try and achieve a green screen effect.

The results are a bit amateurish and a hodgepodge while I figure out what I want to do. I’ll post improved results as I get them but in the meantime, I’ll post what I’ve done so far in case something might be of use to someone else.
