I currently maintain a Star Wars extension mod on the North American server, based on the RTS Empire at War.
The following models aren't absolutely necessary, but would be a nice addition to my mod.
I bet everyone knows what these units look like in lore (goal reference set), but I'll still attach pictures and provide detailed information.
- Protoss themed Star Destroyer
Please don't get hung up on the texture color. I am mostly just looking for a modification to the existing battlecruiser hurricane model to more closely resemble a star destroyer. Protoss coloring is just icing on top of the cake. Namely, I would like to make the model triangular, and reshape the bridge. (See following pictures for 1.)
Don't worry about weapon attachment points. This unit behaves like a protoss carrier, so I'll just use the root point for the hanger.
- Terran themed MC80 Winged Liberty Type
This one is a simpler. The existing Protoss Frigate model is pretty close. I would like to see the floating portions of the wings filled in, the glowing weapon point on the front removed, and the entire model recolored. The thruster idea is only an extra idea, (if that's not too hard). On this model, I would like at least 1 weapon attach point, as this unit behaves similarly to the Terran battlecruiser, and has weapons. I know that the actual unit is creamy white to light grey, but I don't want that coloration.
- Protoss themed AT-AT
This one is hard. I want a four legged walker in the protoss theme. Everyone knows what this looks like, but there is nothing in Sc2 that I know of that remotely resembles this unit. In game, this is the Empire's assault walker, and it behaves much like a heavier colossus.
- Terran themed rebel T4-B Tank (This one is less important)
Dual turret turbolaser tracked tank. This is like the terran Thor in game. I already use a decent model for this one, but I put it up there as I would love to have this model for sc2.
These aren't absolutely necessary, just have fun with it! I would make these myself, but at the moment, I have no experience with kitbashing or modelling from scratch. The only working Sc2 starwars model I know of is an X-Wing from Solstice, and it would be nice if these where out there as well. :)
And here is a reference image to the T4-B tank. (This version is fan-created. Author: henskelion) Perhaps a colonist transport or eradicator bot modification will easily produce this? This will need a weapon attachment on both of the turbolaser muzzles.
You might be able to convert models from Star Wars: EAW using this addon. There's a Blender addon for .m3 files too. If you also have EAW, go for it. I haven't even tried it myself yet, so I'd like to see how it turns out. :)
