Holy....

I was going to say that I thought it would still need more Red. But then I loaded the two (this one nad the MediaVPs one) side by side, and I have to say...

Perfect. It may have less red to it, but it's so crisp and clean by compare that I honestly don't care! ANd the UV is laid out well enough that if any minds change, it'll be easy to implement any changes.

Speaking of UV, I notice the map has a lot of area in the bottom (especially the right) that is essentially empty. Maybe filling in or UV-ing some damage like looking stuff there will help make that space more efficient.

I like the look of the smoothing as well. I actually at first (in PCS2) thought it wasn't smoothed, then I realized, "D'uh, angled panels!" at which point I wasted 20 minutes or so just spinning the damn thing. :D

I like it, I like the work and I would like to thank the Inferno Team for the lovely work.

I donno, it looks to me that the smoothing could stand to be improved.
Its got some weird lighting in bits.

Not at this current moment. Once we are sure that all the texturing is finalized, then there will be.

I wonder if I could convince Flaming Sword to do them, he did an excellent job on the Rahu...

The above was a quick throw together.

Looks even more mega awesome with the smoothing fixed version I just finished. Though some of the lower LODs have some interesting bisections. And a lot of doubles to clean up. Still, very well done.

I also had to re-do the normal map from what you see above too, the second version is MUCH nicer. (the initial back-ground that I set the vector lines to was too bright and caused the normal lines to be too sharp. They are still a little too thick IMO, but you only notice when looking at it without the rest of the textures.)

something I always thought would look cool on this ship would be it the spikes were pointed more outward (like 45 degrees) but had an afterburner triggered animation were they pulled to there 'normal' position.

just throwing that out there.

Umm way beyond what I know how to do and a little too late now any way. Not saying someone else can't do it if they were so inclined though.

Are we going to see a release anytime soon?

Never!..... WOOOWAAAAHAAAHHAAAHAAA

More seriously due to the number of hands involved in finishing this and many of the other Shivan assets it will most likely be available with either the next MediaVP's or Inferno campaign release, which ever comes first.
