Title: WTF EXPENSIVE shivan model
Post by: Turey on September 28, 2006, 10:31:29 pm: http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/167531

it's a nice model, but...

:jaw:

$61.50?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??

Isn't it illegal to make money off of someone else's intelectual property?

These models are very hard to come by. I know because I''ve looked EVERYWHERE.

:confused: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,40807.msg832154.html

Anyway, I wouldn't pay $61 for that. For $61, I want it actually look like a Shivan, be fully jointed, and have a beam cannon and a top hat.

Morally, no. Legally, yes.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that's not the same model. Nico/Venom's model is noticeably different in shape and color.

If only those poor commandos in Hallfight.mve had used REAL TIME WEAPON CHANGE, they might still be alive.
