hey nerds there's some pretty big changes here, some criticisms that aren't about how smooth it is would be nice

The big beam emitter and surrounding armor look good but I worry about gameplay impact. I.e. you've made it harder to hit from the sides and easier to hit from the front.

Well I always wondered what was that big round thing on the middle of the model.
I'd go for an internal spinny thing of some sort, that works as a gravity generator or something like that.

Probably hard to make it look like something functional without altering the model but...well maybe you can think about something to do on that area.

I always assumed it was some sort of reactor vent or something. Either way, what's on the model now is an armor covering for that bit. It's meanted to look armored so I'm covering it up and I'm not going to be like Galemp and cover all of the details with armor plates and then leave the big glowy bit uncovered. :P

God that's the leviathan?

I'm really REALLY impressed.

I've always thought of the Levy/Fenris as the most ugly model in FS universe. Now I'm not so sure, I mean... I kinda like it now.
How can that be possible, is beyond my understanding.

It's fairly easy to understand: you have bad taste. The Fenris / Leviathan were always beautiful ships, even more so after they've been HTL'd some years ago. Now they are even prettier.

It's so beautiful that I feel like I could reach out and hold it with my hands. [/generic Oddgrim/Hades praise]
"We have now reached the point where every goon with a grievance, every bitter bigot, merely has to place the prefix, 'I know this is not politically correct, but...' in front of the usual string of insults in order to be not just safe from criticism, but actually a card, a lad, even a hero. Conversely, to talk about poverty and inequality, to draw attention to the reality that discrimination and injustice are still facts of life, is to commit the sin of political correctness. Anti-PC has become the latest cover for creeps. It is a godsend for every curmudgeon and crank, from fascists to the merely smug."

Not sure how I feel about the look, to be honest.
To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

Looks good. We're going to need a hi-poly Fenris of similar quality, if that one's gonna be for the Leviathan only.

Thanks for the feedback! c:

Getting closer to the finishing , adding grime and normal lines. The plating around the upper tower is pretty much done, the fusion mortar underneath is redesigned to better fit the new fenris one. The Machine detail under the girders around the engines present a challenge, the retail texture that is used as reference is difficult to interpret.
