Looks good so far Lith can only improve it though, as with turrets.

[kasperl]

make the neck longer and smaller, make the head a tadd smaller, i mean a very slicht tadd, then the aft hull. and round of those parts a lot.

[Knight Templar]

I'd make the head taller.. like a sobeck somewhat. The Vasudanness is growing though.

Oh and don't be surprised if I later try and steal it for MindGames

If you do grab it for MG, Kara, lemme tweak it a bit.

[karajorma]

It would need remapping since it's very GTVA at the moment. Admittedly that's a problem with most of the vasudan ships out there.

You could always take a look at Aldo's orginal version. I don't know what Raptor's changed.

[Ashrak]

i liked the blue mesh more

[gevatter Lars]

I would prefer the first version...looks much better in my opinion.

quite a bit really (just had a look myself)


Slight update: I've narrowed the neck a little.  Turrets are next, unless there are any more major changes needed to make it 'Vasudan'

And I may make a corvette version, simular to the first posted pic...

That Vasudan tile is overused a bit IMHO. But I know it's hard to find something else...

[Odyssey]

To me, it looks very much like the Sobek that ate all the pies. Not that that's a bad thing, but the two do look like cousins.
If you want it to look small, then that Vasudan tile needs to be a lot bigger. It's currently on destroyer scale or so.

To alter the Sobek look a bit, and avoid the above, maybe you could try some Typhon textures?

New pic, this comparing diffrent base textures, with a Mentu and a Sobek behind

I think you should use individual textures similar to the Aten - I always found that the FS2 vasudan style looked godawful compared to the FS1 style.

[Eviscerator]

I prefer the new "scaled" Vasudan look than the skins used on the Typhon.

When I look at a Vasudan, I see more of a kin-ship with the tan, desert-like scales than I do with the dark, purplish-brown eye-destroyers of doom.

[mikhael]

Desert like? I'm always reminded of tortoises by FS2 Vasudans. This is a very good thing, from my point of view.

[Taristin]

I rather like the freighter-tile on it... *gets idea for Kurruk...

I'd go for #4. Typhon textures are for huge ships, windows and stuff. In fact, I've never seen them look good on any ship except the Typhon, and Aldo's Typhon 2, both of which have that majestic size about them.

Not mine, though I'd like to claim it. Tis an old WIP shot of a Vasudan megafreighter, credit to Vasudan Admiral. Dunno if he decided to keep the scheme though.

[EDIT]Doh! How could I forget the Karnak? That uses (modified) Typhon textures as well.

[Goober5000]

Anyone have a pic of the Typhon 2?

you mean 4th from left, correct?

If there are no more suggestions on the mesh, then I'll start texturing it, with Lith
