Leo-J Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) PP2060: Solely use for transport, the Aglaeca Dark Matter Transport Submarine is an unarmed vessel. It is always escorted by the Aglaeca Mini Attack Submarines during raids and acquisition of Dark Matter from the Allies. More pictures available in MOCpages.

Milargo Posted October 20, 2010 Hey, wow. That's absolutely spectacular! I adore the thruster design toward the back the the vessel, clever use of the engine holder peice(?) it really ties the whole ship together. The front of the ship? Fabelhaft, and nice use of the weapons holders(?) and hammers on the bottom of the ship. Just have the crew watchout from the submarine's one natural predator, the blimp! submarine hunter. Also, one a side note, are those really black pieces? They looks suprisingly metallic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I learned this black on black background technique of photographing MOCs from Dr. Lee Jones (seriously, a MOCing ER doctor!) This technique gives it that metallic look. Check out the good doctor's MOCs as a reference. http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/139430 http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/135201 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never seen his mocs before, he makes great vehicles. That's a really cool technique, it'll really come in handy. Hope you don't mind if I add this technique to my repertoire. Once again, fantastic Transport Submarine. And thanks for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpiderSpaceman Posted October 20, 2010 That's super cool. Nice texture work, and yeah, that black on black is doing magic, gives you a perfect 'die-cast hot wheels' look. and I really like the dome bricks as reactors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leo-J Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) ... Hope you don't mind if I add this technique to my repertoire. By all means, use it! The good doctor would be proud!

XimenaPaulina Posted October 23, 2010 Another impressive mini-ship Leo-J! I'm really a fan of your unique and detailed minis. And thanks for sharing the metallic black photography effect. I might have to give it a try sometime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
