For a start, I'd say it's not bad.

A bit simplistic, no? I'd have expected something more elaborate from you, Kaz. :)

Not that simplistic's bad... but I don't think it'll fit as well with Ryx's ship...  

But keep at it. Add more detail. HArd edges, whatever. :)

Slight mesh edit. Added a bigger bay on the bottom, but you can't see that. Added some ridges on the back end, which may get rounded a bit better than it is now. (now being not at all) or they may get removed all together, who knows.

Also testing how it looks with my specially designed turrets. It's an... interesting look.

"...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 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

Please do. I honestly didn't rip off any mesh this time around, but I may have been recalling his design and thinking it was my own... :blah:

It most certainly is not! :p

The only thing reminiscant of the Hecate is the bottom engines. That's it. And it doesn't look anything like that P.O.S. Ray gun AKA Colossus.

Sheepy, I think I know which one you mean - it's one of his Vasudan designs, IIRC. The Duat or something.
- Eddie Kent Woo, Setekh, Steak (of Steaks), AWACS. Seriously, just pick one.

The front section looks related to the Colossus, while the neck and back are reminescent of the Hecate. I can see it.

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
