For some reason, I like it. It just looks...

...sci-fi-ish.

I think it's safe to say that this thing foilds/unfoilds...

Anyway, don't know that one, what faction is it? I'm too lazy to check the GW or the Forgeworld websites :p

Tau, it's a kroot warsphere

Ah... "smacks himself"
And I'm a 40K tau player too. Ok that's not how I was depicting a Kroot war sphere.
That aisde, I still thing it's stupid to have kroots being able to make spaceships, but that's another problem.

Rendering one IoM cap ship would probably cause my CPU to melt, with all the spiky things, towers, pipes, guns, and greebles IoM techs stick on their ships.

"We need another projection, captain! We've got almost an entire square foot of blank space on the starboard side!"
"Let's glue a laspistol on and wire it into the targeting computer!"
"That's not enough, captain!"
"Then stick some chainswords on too, in case Chaos Marines try to break in by ramming the hull with their power armor!"


Nico plays as Tau? Figures...:lol:

Yea, but to get it exactly right it would have to have a way too many polys.  I didn't even both trying to get the textures to look the same, since I suck at making them.

If orks can build ships, why can't kroot? :p

I really should try to make a lunar or a gothic some time...

No, I don't mean your model, I mean the mini. I imagined Kroot spheres to be crappy, rusty spheres with lots of antennas and stuff, and some large canons sticking out in every direction. Don't ask why, it just was that way in my mind.

Anaz: well Orks can build a lotof stuff, save for that ship, kroots seems to be able to build a few crappy guns and that's it. Don't see forest creatures building spaceships. Ah well, I'd rather see some demiurg ship in FS2 :p ( or imperial guard ships, I love them )

I tried.  I spent a day on one, and it added up to way to many polys for my limited abilities.

My Iron Duke destroyer is partly based on Imperium ships from BFG. Not quite the same, but similar shape. Check it out. :)

EDIT: Here she is: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,28765.0.html

As for this model, it looks pretty cool - but the middle bit is too long compared to the model. Make it a bit shorter, and leave it as a blank mesh until it's finished - we can see the details better then :)

Looks more like a War Schwartzenegger, good for pumping iron every day...hmmm

Give it some turrets and it'll make one sick remote beam platform ;) or one really weird vasudan base?
