Since most of the old links in the eyecandy thread won't work anymore once the 3dap site is deleted, it's time for a new thread. In this thread you'll find images from the main campaign, test shots, and images from completed Archives mods.
Here's pics of m1-4 in the current build.

That Titus looks a wee bit overtiled. I can understand trying to make it big, but it needs other things on the long flat regions, I think, to help make it look more imposing. I don't want to come off sounding critical, but it's looking a lot like a trashman capship. I think if you had a few random greebles accross the surface, and used them to break up the tile (which could be left intact actually) it'd look a lot better. I think it has potential.
A suggestion would be sort of like how I dealt with the Damocles for TVWP: Like this. Another example would be the Raynor. Or the Sagitarius model I also tweaked for TVWP, but that's not been shown publicly. (Though I'm sure you've seen it, having been TVWP's help, no? I could show you an image of that, if you'd like.)

It is the 2nd largest freighter in the mod (the 1st being the Demeter)
I didn't really want it too look imposing, it is just a freighter :)
Some of the flat parts can be used for docking and part of the underneath could be converted to carry large containers. It can't do that if it isn't flat.

IRRC the Sagitarius is a Aldo modeldump ship that I converted. I also have another version of it for future use in something I have in mind. If it's the ship I'm thinking of that is.

Hmm, I don't recall seeing it in any of his model dumps. In fact, I think Goober once said that Ryx made it. In either case, I went over it because it was just too... shapeless. I may PM you the link, I don't think I should post it here.

Edit: Actually, looking back at it, it doesn't look too spiffy compared to what I think I can do now... but in either case, if you're interested in a peek, just say so.

The freighter in the first shot looks sexy as it is. Keep it! :D

Yeah, the freighter looks fine.  I mean, it's a freighter......you're not supposed to go OMGWTF when you see it.

I go OMGWTF at just about every ship model that I see. (As long as its not absolutely butt-ugly, like just a box or something.)

I stand by my claim that it looks overtiled and a bit monotonous. It needn't look imposing, then, but a bit of greebling would still help, IMO.

It might be a nice option, but I think the model's fine as-is.  I mean, how much greebling do you see on a flatbed truck or cargo ship? :p
