Eh? I made that ship from scratch, I didn't use Aldo's model...
It is very similar the the Orc but it has many differences - it has a tower, it has anti-cap turrets, differnt engines, different side-wings, a slightly altered profile, it's allso thicker.
While the model would have been quite useful to me, the nameplating has screwed it: it is unsuitable for words longer then "Orion", among other things, and looks quite bad with the serial number removed.
Make you own nameplate texture, but for longer ship names, don't stretch it vertically as much as you would a shorter named ship.
true, the letters will appear a ltiile smaller than by a GTD Orion, but that's no biggie..
