I wonder what the two front beam cannons could be turned into, once they get the right attention. Right now they're nothing but spikes with a different color, but I still wonder if they could be turned into a true subobject with moving parts, while still preserving their spikey nature.

Just another suggestion, I've noticed a few times when hi-poly redux models are made, the designer includes additional turret submodels that are left out of the tables and no submodel data is included.  That in mind, it has occurred to me that having the upper pair of front claws have turrets available might be useful for campaign designers.  I also seem to remember the Vassago had a central beam cannon as well.

I like the new Ravana the way it is.

Might be wrong, but I think the spiky beam cannons are supposed to be prism type things- note all the small cables running down the arms, like they focus the energy put into them from all the cables.



If you do decide to change them, How about making the spikes partly transparent? with a laser thing inside?

I don't know if you want to keeping hearing how good it is, but... it's real good!

Congratulations, Nyx, you've compelled me to re-access my Imgur account and make a meme.

More love to you then! It's gorgeous!

My GPU looks upon the Nyxvana's visage and trembles.

Meh polys are cheap, don't worry about it.

Ok, than hand 0.10 € for every of the Ravanas polys to Nyx pls.

[Luis Dias]

That's not cheap

It is planned. Upper pair of claws will be destroyable subobjects in standard version, but a simple table edit can turn them into additional turrets.

I was thinking about it, but FSO does support partially-transparent materials. It would require separate material to make it happen, but she already uses lots of multiple, individual materials. I'll just keep claw turrets simple. We can't have everything, unfortunately.

Fresh WiP. She is closer to completion then beginning :]

Errm i need a new change of underwear! That is a work of art. Can only imagine what you could do with the Lucifer to bring it up to this level of detail, don't get me wrong but ships like the lucy and Orion are brilliant but with detailing like this they would even more brilliant!

Orion has pretty much the same level of detailing, both in texture and mesh. I painted it to look close to classic when you're away, but you wil see myriad of details if you get closer :]. New MediaVPs are coming, so soon you will see for yourself

Lucifer is pretty old. One of very early HTLs, dating back to 2005. It's still holding up nicely considering it's age, but it's about time for upgrade. As I know Oddgrim, you have nothing to worry about regarding quality of upcoming Nucifer :]

Poor Moloch, the perpetual bridesmaid lol

This MVP update is going to really boost the visual impact of the game by giving the key ships such amazing presence.  What great work in such a short time!

[DefCynodont119]

Poor Argo, never even had an update.

Axem is working on it :]
