A couple look a little like some of the Homeworld concept art.
I think an Ion Frigate would be an interesting project.

Venom, these models are of the quality we've come to expect.  

Thank you for them.

To the rest of you who have complained about the models:

1.  Let's see you do better.  I know I can't.
2.  The purpose of wings, planes, or other extremities on a vehicle, given the context is twofold, to give added manuverability by moving the verniers away from the the center of gravit and to move the shield projectors further away from the hull so any energy that does get through disipates with the interveneing distance.

Once again, thank you Venom.  And just ignore teh loosers that don't appreciate such a fine gift.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

is a sweet ship, but I think it could use a reskin to look more great-warish. I always loved that concept pic, and was hoping it would get made. :yes: :D

After all, the blocky white ships are Tau ships, which are not supposed to be graceful because the Tau were kind of desperate and slapped them together.
Long time ago, you see, there was this thing called the VBB and... oh, nevermind.

Here comes my personal "TOP 3":



Extreme, awesome, superb. Love it. The best Vasudan fighter / bomber model I've ever seen.

When will it be available?




Very, very, VERY good. A definite eye-candy and great design.

When will it be available?



[V] Concept Art design, great model. A slight polycount improvement would be nice.

When will it be available?

They are all available actually. Although none of the models are technically available from Venom (as they are now for the project), the Vasudan ships are in Inferno (with different skins) and the the shivan one is on Venoms site (in his sig. ) as he released all of his shivan stuffs.

seems I sent maeg the wrong version, actually. it's supposed to be smoothed...

Ypoknon: the Tau weren't desesperate :blah: well, not at the begining at least, and the ships already existed. the blockiness is just, well, coz I wanted to, nothing more, nothing less.

My mistake, sorry Venom. I've always assumed them to be kind of rag tagged. Should have read more carefully.

Fr3z3r, isn't the your third favorite model (in the order you posted anyways) in Inferno?

Noting that this is an FS UPGRADE project, I think we should only use some (maybe all) of Venom's models, and keep all the old ships in.
If it was supposed to be FS3/a new FS2 campaign, then we could remove the old ships, but since we're only supposed to be giving new tools and a new lease on life to the original FS2, the old ships should still be kept.

But if we do that, we can't legally put it up for Download anywhere. If we change all the ships (and all the textures, interface screens, effects etc. - a massive but not impossible job) we can put it up for DL wherever we want with the latest SCP exe.

Nice. Some of those corvette-looking Terran capships seem to be suffering from TMGS* though....
