Need Low Poly Boat Models

Art Asset Request

We are looking to have new 3d models developed for a 3d sea based combat game we are currently developing. Below are the details of what we are looking for. If you have any questions please message us and let us know.

Models need only model and texture, we have no plans of using bump map, specular, or illumination maps. We prefer .fbx (or .x) for importing into game, and .blend or .3ds for native formats. Models should be centered on their water level line, and physical turning point. We count on your artistic ability to assure that the art style is similar in all models. Pictures are provided as reference, but not exact requirements.


Our game will consist of the following styles of boats:
Somali
Military

Somali vessels are “improvised/fixed up” fishing boats. They are covered up with everyday spare parts (like wood boards and scrap metal pieces). This covering provides protection for people inside (actually resolves us from drawing any people). So these boats show no windows, or have open deck areas.

Military vessels, are similar in nature (armored up). But protection needs to look professionally done.

Also, we divide our boats into small and large. Small boats will be primary game drivers, and player will be able to control them. Large boats will be significantly larger, so they will “show” more. Therefore small boats can be very small number of vertices, while large boats can be “nicer”.
The linked video shows approximately the camera position and the amount of detail that will be seen on small boats.

Please let us know if you have any questions regarding our requirements.

Model 1(pilot) – small- Somali -
Medium Size Boat (25 feet) – This is going to be a medium fighting boat. All flat areas are possible gun positions. Being, small game entity, it does not need to be high in detail.


Model 2 (zodiac)– small –Somali
This boat is a bit smaller then model 1. Aprox. 15-20 feet. You can raise the deck a little bit, so that we can use it for shooting positions.


Model 3 (pirate mother ship 1) –large – Somali
This boat will serve as a base for all the attacks. We like the crane, but it can be simplified, and not circular in cross section. Deck, of course, can be/ should be flat. It will have multiple gun positions.


Model 4 (Cargo ship) – large – professional
We like the size of this boat for our container vessel. We do not need the crane stuff, nor the antennas. The control tower can be much simpler. The back should carry 5ish container boxes. The very back should allow space for gun positions. We will also place a gun on the very front of the boat.


Model 5 (military mother ship) – large – professional
This will be the boat that military will use to lunch counter attack on pirate base. The size of this ship should be comparable to other large ships.
