Instead, I'm posting some inspirational concept art from the credits images of FS1. Behold:
(http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l77/Aardwolf001/conceptaeshma.png)
I personally never liked the Aeshma, but the hammerhead is just win. If someone feels like detailing the Aeshma at some point, I for one wouldn't mind seeing that sort of hammerhead, particularly since it's quasi-canon.
I noticed the ship's left gun (the gun on the right of the image) is misaligned in the drawing... whatever
-
There were a bunch of odd ships in the credits.....Some of them could had potential.....
-
It would be pretty badass to see a bit of that design in a touched-up Aeshma. It's a rather nondescript fighter as-is.
-
And seeing as how the Aeshma has frakked up LOD2 as it is....
-
Why isn't that in the Wiki?

Yeah. I'm concerned not all concepts made it onto there.
-
I like that, someone make that.
-
I know I'd much rather shoot that than what's in-game right now.
-
That Aeshma actually looks rather badass.

Well, it does have some elements of FS1 Shivan design (Freakish Mechanical).

I preferred freakish mechanical to the more stereotypical evil alien thing.

:yes:

I like a mix of both.

Me too, that's why I liked FS2.
BUT LET'S NOT DO THIS AGAIN HERE.
-
So, back on topic, are there any modelers* interested in actually trying to make this thing? Because that was the reason I posted it.
*who aren't already working on too many things at once

/me gets ready for flamewar
BUT LET'S NOT DO THIS AGAIN HERE.
:(

Doubleplusbump borderline necro!
In case any of you have forgotten or didn't know this existed, it does. Glory to whoever makes the concept Aeshma!
-
Looks like what happens when you cross a Whitestar with the Andromeda. :D
-
Well if nobody else wants to do this... would someone at least convert LOD0 to .3ds (with materials, uv coords, and smoothing) so that I can take a stab at it?
Obviously there are significant discrepancies, but having the original as a starting board would be useful.
Edit: Kudos to _Angelus_ for getting me it. I'm not sure the smoothing worked, but it will suffice.
Another Edit: Damn that hammerhead is a lot harder to model than I expected!
-
Well, since nobody else wanted it, it looks like I'm starting this after all.
-
Don't abandon your other ones though.
-
Yeah yeah.
Anywho, that hammerhead (which is a lot harder than I expected) is sorta shaping up;

Too round IMO. Looks kinda...vasudan-y
-
I believe this is what they call "lipstick on a pig".
-
;-)
-
That belongs in the Descent world
-
Well I am gonna redo the rest of it... I think.
-
That's the head of the Hatshepsut... Maybe try making it look more Shivan.
-
Oh... the two pieces go together?
-
Two pieces??
