I was messing around with the symmetry modifiers in Max while working on something (which is coming along very nicely thank you very much) when I stumbled across this:



Literally created with a couple of clicks.
What do you fellas think ? Any potential ?

Looks like a torpedo or a missile, it only needs a nose.

Next generation terran/vasudan hybrid design, maybe a cruiser or corvette?

If I could decide which end was the front and which was the back...

If the first picture is the front oriented towards us, it would make a neat Vasudan torpedo cruiser...if the second is the front oriented towards us, a bomber, but whose would depend on texturing.

It looks like a Taiidan Missile Destroyer from Homeworld.  Stratcomm(IIRC) already has something that looks very similar to this.  That aside, you say you created it in only a few clicks?  Nice!

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

I like. Needs work, obviously, but a good start. Deffo a Vasudan ship, though - reminds me a bit of that beam destroyer from inferno...

To be honest i can see it being a new Bomb.  Kind of like a cluster cyclops.  Or something with extreme destructive power, like a Meson but not THAT extreme.  The four rounded bulbs are the front.
You can't take the sky from me.  Can't take that from me.

Exactly. If this is made a ship, you should make it with the top picture showing the front, with four forward-firing big honkin' guns. Great for roasting Shivan cruisers, corvettes, or Sathanases :D (That's what I thought it was, at first)

The other way would just look like a very smooth misile destroyer.

The Hyperion. I noticed the similarity straight away. Considering that MG is using the Hyperion you should consider this as praise Roanoke :D

Hmm, not a bad response for an 'xperiment.
No doubt when I show my real project you'll all hate it and tell me to return to this...
