Yet another Hades reskin
Yes, yes, I know, there's always a desire to reskin the Hades. I was messing around and came up with this, using the Orion textures; it's not that bad. Perhaps what would have happened if the GTA had started construction on it before they met the Shivans.

Say, that gives me an idea. Would the Alternate Paths team be interested in this?

It ain't that bad. Especially for a camp such as AP where there is no shivans to influence the design. Nice work GE, NOW GO TO BED.

I like it, but I still preferred the original colouring. Also, would the Hades even been built (or even thought of) if the Shivans didn't come to play us a visit.

Hey GE you got that for download? I'm steadily building a collection of all the Hades skins around so I can choose one for Maelstrom eventually! (Probably the day before I release it!!)

It looks good, the textures are applied right, but it just doesn't seem to fit to me.. Dunno, but the Orion textures just don't look right on the Hades. *shrug*

Well, considering the size of the thing, it must have been under construction for much of the T-V War. (Remember it took twenty years--with the cooperation of BOTH species--to build the Colossus.) Perhaps the Shivan tech was a last-minute addition in 2335. That's why I thought the AP team would be interested.

Any re-skin of the hades is good, but the textures get a little repetitive.

I actually think that it is a very good ship. ATM I don't think that we need anything like a hades...but we can still pick it up "just in case"


...and shouldn't this be in the modding forum..?

Well, like I said, for it to be done by 2335 it was probably under construction for much of the T-V War-- an ultimate weapon to beat the Vasudans, or something.

It's clearer in game and on the POF, but here's a comparison pic.

Speaking of AP....

How about what the Hades would have looked like without shivan influence?  Worth a shot maybe...

Ahem.. thats what the original one was meant to be like, however I believe Bobboua did a good reskin that added shivan influence!
