How can I make this boat look better?

How it should look:
image

A ship that I want to look more like Deepwoken’s early in the game before it… crashes.

  • What is the issue? (Keep it simple and clear - Include screenshots/videos/GIFs if possible)
    The ship looks too bland. I would like to add more details and depth to it.
  • What solutions have you tried so far? (Have you searched for solutions through the Roblox Wiki yet?)
    I could try using Blender, would that work? Or using Building Plugins.

uhhm is this supposed to be a joke or did you seriously just make a big box before asking for help on the devforum? Or maybe the image is not loading correctly for me? Cause all i see is just a box

Did you use a wrong image? This is a straight Roblox part…

You could start by making it look like a boat instead of a brick

By using Blender or Stravant Plugin?

I’d use Blender, but I also already know how to use it. If you don’t, good luck!

Is there any tutorials you have in mind that you can put?

BlenderGuru’s donut tutorial is always a great start.

I’m going to go learn how to model in Blender now and return results.

OK, see you in 20h, if not more!

Hopefully my model doesn’t look like a box.

Okay, so I redid the boat and it looks like this:

I made this just from positioning, rotating, and extruding.

So does it look better or what?

No offense but it looks bad, don’t worry you can still uplift ur skill level with more tutorials.

Yeah it doesn’t look really good but I suggest you just focus on the hull in Blender (or hone your skills first), then build the rest in studio, as to simplify the whole process.

Deepwoken’s boat seems to have made the hull a mesh, and the rest of a boat (minus other details) using cylinders. The sail could easily be made using a flat plane.

I know this is a stupid question, but when modeling anything, is it best to start with something like a cube? If it’s just the base of the boat.

So for the boat an ellipsoid?

I’m not really good with modeling. So sorry if they don’t look amazing or outstanding.

Technically you can make do with anything but it’s definitely simpler to start off with a cube.

make sure to delete the default blender cube, then add it back in for absolutely no reason as it’s basic tradition. (joke-ish)

So, it does work.

But the collision is pretty strange. I have the CollisionType set to ConciseConvexDecomposition also.

Here’s a video about the issue.

Do you understand that not everyone is as good as modeling as others, right? I have not much knowledge of modeling boats and things like that.

So forgive me if it doesn’t look as good as it should.
