Yeah, they stick out and interfere with docking a fair bit if I remember. But they made it look a lot cooler. I'm not saying add them all in, I'm just asking if you're include a few, or something in their place.

[Kolgena]

We could always have them as separate dockable antenna pieces, similar to how the rest of the Arcadia attachments work.

I just couldn't get the circle hole to work. I tried... but in the end, I really didn't like it so I went with the hexagon. Sorry to the circle lovers.

[Galemp]

I think you should lose the circle altogether. There's enough angles on the exterior that reinforce and emphasize the hexagonal shape that this feels really forced.

[mjn.mixael]

Really? I kinda like how the hexagon is set inside there. Makes the docking hole thing seem like there is a reason it's not circular.

[General Battuta]

I think I'm with Galemp.

I third Galemp's position. I'd even loose the arcing exterior curvature to a fair extent. It's a space dock/station, not a fast ship. Interior volume and ruggedness would go a long way.

I really like mjn's solution. It maybe looks a little bit too puffy but besides that a great approach!

[Rga_Noris]

I really think Galemp is just giving his opinion, not saying he could do better. In fact, his mannerisms were professional and clean.

[Thaeris]

EDIT: Same for you as well. - Zacam

View it without the ridiculous smoothing.

Ahhh! nice

[Solatar]

I'm with Galemp in opposing the circle, BUT I think it has potential, depending on the textures.  It's just so angular (at least immediately around the hexagon area) that I feel the circle looks a tad out of place.

But seriously, other than that small quibble, this thing looks freaking bad. ass.

I was just going to ***** and moan about the puffy jelly smoothing and thick cables, but you beat me to it Now it looks good and I don't get to raeg anymore.

More seriously, I think you could greeble the inside of the tube with recessed pipes and other assorted doodads. Might look cool. As for the bunch of stuff surrounding the hexagon, I think it looks quite good, and could see it making sense as some sort of structure required for station addons going through the tube. Actually, on second thought, the circle looks really good in the first picture because it's half recessed, but the side shown in the second picture seems (?) to have the circular stuff completely protruding. I think it'd look better if it was recessed a bit on that side as well.

[General Battuta]

SOOO much better with the smoothing fixed

[Kolgena]

Haha, I just remembered what word I was fishing for but couldn't quite place.

Edema. It has been resolved.

[Galemp]

SOOO much better with the smoothing fixed

Agreed!

It's a trick of the lighting. It is actually recessed on both sides.

[swashmebuckle]

I think the hexagon within a circle gives it a bit of a sphincter-like appearance--not that there's anything wrong with that, it just doesn't seem really terran to me.  Other than that though it looks really amazing.  I especially like the command tower things.
