sweet.

i suggest that you apply for a swooh account to host your site/images, so you don't have any pop-ups, banners, or bandwith problems.

it's a hosting thing from a member here, he offers 100MB free, no popups, banners, or other stuff.

Release your model file for the Ishtar and someone could probably do something with it. Is the big arm a BFRed?

Hmm, looks great, but says "light cruiser" or "frigate" to me more than "destroyer".

Nice work!

Not bad. I'd have put the lone arm underneath, but that's a mere aesthetic concern. Your poly usage is excellent. You get a lot of detail even before you add the texture. Good job.

If no one else has recruited you, I need some help with Shivan models for the 158th. ;)

Very nice ship dude!! Since it is for HW, the 500 polys are just good, but if you want to make it for FS2 (and I sure hope you do... good designs are always welcome, specially shivan), highen the poly count :)

Welcome to the HLP!!!
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?!?

Very cool! What you might want to do, though, is to mount the arm on the rear right quadrant instead of in the middle. Asymmetry=good. It would also balance it out a bit, so it's not so lopsided and awkward.

Damned fine, both of them, though I would suggest changing the name from scarab, as that's a more egyptian (ie. Vasudan) reference.

The Scarab looks a bit like it ran into something bigger than itself... what happens if you stretch the claws and nose out to 1.5x or 2x length?

EDIT:  Actually, all the nose really needs is to have the height of the red area reduced I think... and the claws should go a little past the front rather than hanging behind.  But very cool :yes:

yes, up the poly count for new stuff, were going to get HT&L soon so it realy isn't an issue any more,

that first ship is prety good, needs some spikes or something to balence the one arm though, the second one you made is just good all around, in the wire frame the arms look a bit too dence compared to the rest of the ship, but on the textured model this isn't notisable, only recomendation for it would be some spikes comeing out from the bottom, but it doesn't need them, it is very shivanish as it is (FS1 shivanish, the better of the two), in fact the only problem I have is (:)) the name, Scarab is egyption, that is for Vasudan ships, you need something demonic

the Ishtar looks like a fighter to me.... and the scarab (PVS Scarab fs1 vasudan support ship?) looks like a shivan bomber to me.... maybe i'm just insane or crazy.

Thanks for the comments.
Im trying to move away from other shivan designs, (just put some spikes on it n paint it black n red) :nod: I could put in some jagged bits tho.

The reason why the arms are so dence is coz there actually made from the ishtar ship, i just added a symetry modifier to it n it came out with a cool shape. Then i just added it to this model.

The back has a nice texture to it, its sort of a lumpy carapace.

I gotta think of a new name, i sorta just added scarab coz it looks like one.... Mabye Agares, Barbatos , Abigor ,Malaphar , Byleth . ect........

thanks again.:cool:
