BOOM!! It's a bomber!!
Old
     

New
     
     
     

I can't really come up with any improvements/ additions, so this (should) be the final texture set.  512x512 maps at present, the metal seams are a little dark, but hopefully size reduction will fix that.  took me about 3 days to draw, I added shading effects to every line on the model, to try and get it a bit better looking.

The model is a bit high-poly (560-ish without thrusters), but it's not an en0-masse bomber, so it should be ok.

Arms -  'Bout 10 gunports, possibly 1/2 turrets.  

It's obviously a total redesign of the older ship model, and I'm now starting editing the file to compile to pof.

Looks darn sweet dude! But seriously, all your old ships are of such high quality, I reckon you should leave them in there as Mark 1's, and make your new models Mark 2's. 'cos those old ones, old as they are, are too good to waste

Well, i considered it, but I rea;ly hate the older versions of this and the Claymore, and they don't really look right with the newer models.... plus hud.tbl is getting stretched   . In fact, the only thing that's survived intact is the Gryphon.

Really? Okay, fair enough. I kinda liked them all, actually.   I pity those who aren't paying attention here and will never have had the benefit of seeing the old ships

What's Starsiege?

I think it looks a bit cell-shaded, actually.

 
Starseige is a semi-obscure RTS (?, at least I think it's an RTS) game.

This is just a hunch on my part, but do you hand draw your textures and then scan them into the computer?

Awesome stuff as always... A much more intriging design than the old one.   You'd have to excuse my dry comment, I'm at a school sleepover with nothing to do for 6 or more hours...
Long time ago, you see, there was this thing called the VBB and... oh, nevermind.

 
i dont often comment on user made models but this is simply stunning, it looks like it comes right out of a manga cartoon, excellent work
