Terran Syndicate Alliance Cruiser, for my Nodewar campaign im working on.








Thoughts? There are some things that i can see that might need changing, though im unsure.

Where's the GTD Cube when you need it?


Anyway, detail. It has none, it needs some. Alternately, you can leave out the detail, and make it look like that was intentional, which it doesn't right now.

I like the lack of detail, it's like the Oliver Hazard Perry class. Simple design to allow mass production in even the smallest of shipyards.

I assume he means turrets and what not, but clearly you haven't added them yet.

As in greebling, as in more interesting textures, as in something that's not a barely modified cube. You could keep it as a barely modified cube, but you'd better keep all the textures more or less matching, then.

The flat top and bottom is intentional(they'll be covered in turrets soon enough, just turreting is tricky and i want to leave that until last), as is the flat front. As it gives it a more robust look, than fancy curves.

That's fine, but there's nothing on the surfaces, either. Complex meshes in general work better, but in this case you'd better at least have stuff to look at on the surfaces.

trash the FS2 maps, and use something else.

btw, I'm sick of seeing FS2 maps everywhere.

edit: where are the engines?

Texture is temperory while i wait for wEvil to find his TSI texture and while i find some other textures from somewhere, i thought it would be better than white. The engines are at the back in a rectangular alcolve i made for them.

I'd put some spinal mounted beam cannons on the front of the ship, just to give it some punch.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Personally, i don't think it resembles a doorstop or cube now.
