http://prokhorvlg.deviantart.com/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/prokhorzakharov/ This is me ^^ Yeah... stuff. Not finished a lot of it, I'm a slow worker. Plan on making guns, vehicles, a spaceship, and perhaps in the future blocks and dungeons if I get around to it... Ambitious, I know, here you go anyways. Shown with unfinished Protos Jumpsuit... all this stuff is probably going to be crafted with crystals to give those things a bit more of a use. I also plan on making a unique set of armor for each helm. This is just WiP stuff. Lore behind this being that the Vepr Corporation is an offshoot of the spread out remnants of a human civilization that left Earth between 100,000 and 200,000 years ago, long before our own civilization began. Possibly due to drastic environmental disasters. Practically nothing is left from this extremely ancient civilization on Earth aside from technology buried deep under the surface and under the oceans, and underneath Mars (they colonized it while it became a dead planet.) However, they spread across the stars in their massive voyenships. Digistructing technology allows them to create practically anything provided that they have enough energy and the required resources - many setting up shop near suns and black holes to siphon off energy. Although they are a giant presence in the universe, they are rarely seen as no one really ventures to black holes and suns too often. There are a "few" (couple hundred billion) of these, however, that settled on planets - creating glorious cities spanning planet-wide of tall black shard-like skyscrapers, bright hologram advertisements and beautiful green parks featuring ancient Earth flora. They are governed in a strange way. Individual cities, planets, and super-stations govern themselves democratically. At the same time, they are all part of a protectorate with rare exceptions - either the Vepr Protektorat or the Victor Protectorate, which are fiercely at war with each other. Most notable exceptions include the Daico Sovereignty - recognized by both Protectorates as independent. They offer mercenary work for both, and are proud manufacturers of some of the finest weapons in the known universe. Physiologically, they are not much different from humans of today, other than having slightly larger eyes and skulls, but being overall weaker. Voyenship Tradition (Vepr Protektorat) To be a voyenship of the Vepr Protektorat is the highest honor that a space-faring craft can hold. These come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from capital ships over fifteen kilometri long, to hundred metra cutters. Nearly all were digistructed at one of the supermassive stations plotted near black holes or suns to use the tremendous energy around. The material that the ships are constructed of range from places such as mined asteroids to obsolete, decommissioned ships. Voyenships usually serve for a century or two, depending on class, after which they simply cannot be updated with the newest tech, at which point they are sent back to their station of origin for the final ceremony and deconstruction of the vessel. Once it has been deconstructed, an updated model of the same ship will be constructed from the material the older one gave when it was destroyed - so in a way, it is the same ship, the same metal, the same plastic, the same concrete. Only thing retained between material transfer is the ships learning AI, which give the ships individuality and personality. AI micromanages, and is even able to control the ship itself if it has no more captain/admiral. The AI is able to manifest itself into a holographic projection representing the deity it is named after. The name is passed on from the old ship to the new one and the crew retrained and transferred. Only a very few are kept for museum purposes, usually ships in which the crew is very old or sustained heavy casualties near the deadline for deconstruction, or Parthenon has decided that the class’s role is no longer needed in modern combat - in which a new class is designed from scratch with the same name, to fulfill a different purpose. However, be warned, enemies of the Protektorat - just because Vepr Voyenships are destined for deconstruction, does not mean at all that they can live well past the deconstruction deadline. In absolute crisis, this is the case. Crew to ship and AI bonding is a very large aspect of the Vepr fleet. Due to this, when a new ship is constructed, those who are chosen to crew the vessel are usually in their early twenties, within five years apart of each other. Humans often live to be well into their two-hundreds due to genetic enhancement in the early days of colonization, and the crews of these massive beasts will develop a very strong bond with each other and their ships. Of course, progression is present, and if a crewmember wishes to transfer out to another - perhaps higher status - craft, they can once they hit a minimum number of years serving on their original ship. This practically never happens. If you have any suggestions on the art direction please tell me about it. Vepr - Lachesis Helmet "Your Destiny is my fascination, and my choice, as I am the measurer of the thread of Life." Vepr - Atropos Helmet "The cause of your demise has been accorded to me, as I am the one who cuts the thread of Life." Vepr - Clotho Helmet "The fate of all beings alive rest upon my shoulders, as I am the spinner of the thread of Life." Vepr Digistructor "It appears to digistruct physical items from crystal, ore, and energy. Very advanced technology."
Whoaa, I love those helmets! Especially that second one for some reason. I just really like the shape!
Working on a spaceship. It's a WiP... planning on adding custom chair, engine anims, tech/storage locker/fuel gauge. Possibly even a Vepr Digistructor built in to go with my mod, custom blocks if I get around to it.
Thanks, man! Currently working on getting custom Vepr background blocks to replace the Apex blocks. Update: Engine parts completed.
Now with custom blocks... will most likely use different kinds of blocks for a few rooms to distinguish them. Next up: custom teleporter. to-do: - Animated water tank - gravity well gun - custom blocks for different rooms - orbital bombardment station - "posters" indicating each rooms purpose. They will hopefully be non-intrusive and moveable. - cargo box in cargo bay
That is bloody gorgeous and its pretty much the perfect size, bigger then default but not massive. I can't wait for release
Thanks, guys. Custom digiporter (teleporter) and quantum compressors (shiplockers) complete. Fuel gauge and tech station up next! Animated water tank as well.
Vepr Concept - Skylla The result of recent forays into neuro-link weaponry by Vepr and the success of neuro-link weaponry in frontline Sowet squads, the Skylla is one of the first mass-manufactured weapons to be employed in Vepr units galaxy-wide. Features internal twin weapon system - railgun/sonic emitter and latest digi-mags. 50 tungsten-core explosive tipped rods each digimag. Battery charge worth 8 minutes of continuous sonic discharge/theoretical hour of continuous railgun discharge. Railgun effective range 1500m, sonic emitter 130m. Railgun: blue-core quadrail system, Vepr exclusive. Sonic emitter: harmonic resonance weapon capable of disrupting bonds between molecules, calibrated to carbon material. Will shatter any organics within path of stream, friend or foe - use with caution. Extendable tweezers - like a very simple hand. Operation: Operator places forearm into preservation chamber in weapons rear. Weapon detects friend-or-foe. Forearm is held in place by preservation substance. Biomechanical "tentacles" wrap under clothing and/or armor and painlessly injects into to nerves and nerve centers: upper spine (2), base of head, upper fore of arm, upper back of arm, lower spine (mainly for support purposes). User loses control of forearm, wrist, hand. Begins experiencing effects of transitory drug injected by "tentacles"; effect 10 seconds. Digital link between any cybernetic implants and arm establish, communicating in machine-common language. Any user UI begins getting updates with weapon condition. Holoscope calibrates with position of user eye and continuously projects into the area in front of eye regardless of own position. User will see no change in holograms position unless physical object blocks the holoscope's projection. User gains control of weapon. It will feel much like a part of his/her own body- however, manual safety is in place to ensure no accidental firing by unaccustomed user. Don't get too used to it buddy - it's not a part of your body.
Released! Rejoice, comrades! http://community.playstarbound.com/...sowet-urania-eodag-2-pathfinder-cruiser.1650/
Whoah, this is amazing! I love the blue and black color style (exactly the color style my character uses on his armor/weapons), keep up the great work!
Thanks. I actually have a few more guns and helmets, and the armour is completed, I just haven't shown yet.
