I like.

The support for the cannon looks better in the concept pic. but generally a good job.

I really like that concept pic. The model, while good, doesn't do the concept justice. It looks too elongated.

It might help to know what sort of ship you're looking for here. The concept looks like a heavy fighter, while the model looks like a fast frigate. Also, before I looked at the model, if someone would have asked, I'd have said that was a shivan design, not a Vasudan one. I know I wouldn't like to see a swarm of those bubbling up out of the mists of the nebula.

Just a little thing: this concept is one for a shivan ship   A more elaboated version led to that shivan bomber that looks like a horse foot ( the naema I think)

Actually, it's a Vasudan corvette. You know, V's Freespace concept art. It's a little larger than a Sobek.

Edit:
It needs tweaking.

But that's an arbitratory (sp?) choice. I have the full pic, and it's a page full of shivan ships, and ONLY shivan ships.

The only ship on that whole page I find an interest in modelling, and venom already did it.   (the Jotun)

PAH! I'll do it anyway for Iwar2! After... I do... all that other stuff on the work queue...

The jotun isn't really Iwar2'ish if you know what I mean. Anyway, if you want, I can send you the max file and the maps.

I sent you an E-mail recently, have you received it?????
Ryx: the model is really nice, but it really does look like a Shivan concept...
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

Nah, the Jotun looks fun to model. Thanks for the offer though.  

As for not being Iwar2ish, well the Braavosi and the Waterdancer aren't either, but I still enjoyed making them and putting them in. Besides that, the Storm Petrel (Cormorant?) isn't exactly the most Iwar Universe type ship either.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

OUCH. And now the site is down. I'm glad I grabbed the concept sketches I liked.  

Yet another thing I should mirror...

Looks like a design based off the SB Taurvi, but with dreadlocks.
