 I like how aggressive it seems. The top reminds me of a furrowed brow.

I like the top armor casing or whatever it's supposed to be. Not so much a fan of the nose or the lower bits, but I do like how you turned the beams into BFGs from those wimpy button turrets, even if it will be a pain to balance correctly.

The biggest eyesore to me is the way the nose just curves around into an engine. It seems too... organic, almost? Nothing Terran about it there.

 :wtf:

I just want to make sure that you realize that the greyed out models are not a part of Hades' recreation and are in fact the models from retail and current MediaVPs... Hades' model doesn't even have engines yet.

I'm aware of that, I was talking about his earlier renders that did have engines, and as far as I knew (up 'til talking to him on skype five minutes ago), they had not been scrapped, with the aforementioned render just being a contrast between his new one and the current HTL Deimos.

Are you still planning on incorporating the side-mounted multi-part turrets for at the very least a "special edition" of the model?

  • What?
Looks like another Hades made Wow-Bomb is in production. Medusa, move over.

EDIT: Question: The trenches on top seem to be a great feature, but a little empty. To you have plans to add greebles within those trenches?

I think I'll call REAL Mahjong 'Chinese Dominoes', just to make people think I'm an ignorant asshat.

The Deimos is powered by Vasudan technology, one could argue that there was some Vasudan influence on the design. /shrug

I made sure to make the front curved, just for you Betrayal. <3

also the Deimos looks awesome

[EDIT] Also the entire front is smoothed except for that one series of edges about halfway down, might want to do something about that

forgot to remirror out of laziness, ignore.

EDIT: Derp, now I know what you mean. That's cause they're seperated at that point, I was going to try putting the engine on some sort of mount but I realized it'd ruin the flow and look dumb.

Now THAT is an effective use of curved surfaces - well done!
If you can hold to that style for the rest of it, it will look very, very cool. :D

I'm really looking forward to the rear section (no pun intended :P )

Will you keep the strange tubes at the main engines? They always looked somewhat redundant to me. Just something random to add detail...

Just my opinion, take it as that.

The space on top between the forward crew section(beige in the illustration) and the aft engineering section(the engine pod) in the back seems a bit large.

That part of the model was cut off. That's where all those windows would be.

You know of course people this is going to make it look even more like it has a face now that you've given it a nose. :p
