This is great stuff, almost as good as some of the recent FS2 models.

I assume that the central section rotates.

Will there be a version available for FS2? Since this looks like a great civilian installation. (for FS2, I'd darken the hull a little and add some window type lights, but it's great still)

i'll try to make it for FS2 but a station needs turrets and turreting is such a hassle. still, i'll try.

Beautiful work! I love the detailing...even if the overall hull design reminds me of some giant spaceborn dumbell.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) I too would love to see an FS2 version.

no, forget about the turrets  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) If you make it as a space station, it won't have turret, instead, cerberus will be layered around it  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif).

My thoughts exactly! I think it adds effect to a mission to do it that way.

ok but it will have some beam cannons on it for defense. making it completely unarmed would be a mistake. thanks for the encouragement you guys!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I like it. It's very detailed - how big is this thing, exactly? And could we get a six-view (for the sake of the contest guidelines)?  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

well since it is a symmetrical cylinderical design, 4 of those views would be exactly the same. here is a six view none the less.

Setekh's on crack.  It's supposed to be a 4 view.  (front, side, top, iso)

But what you have is fine.  Just next time ask the person who set out the rules, mmmkay?   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
