As the name suggests it's inspired by a lego model by me, here's the lego version of the Cerberus:



and...the actual 3d model of the Cerberus:





Feedback, comments, questions?

Poly count is 1269.

and the ship is aimed to be about Destroyer size...if not a big bigger...(about 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 kilometres long)

 
Legos...the birthplace of legends....

:nervous: What?

Anyway, the model doesn't look...freespacey.

Interesting concept though...maybe you could call it..."The Magnet..."

Or maybe...THE HAMMERHEAD....OF...DOOOOOM!

 
meh, that's alright it if doesn't looks freespacey...It'll probably be for a mod sooner or later ;D

Here's some concept art for your ship :

Beware the Ancients' Giant Wrench of Node Deconstruction, their final defense against the Shivans! :drevil:

Well, on the constructive side - it does not feel like a FS capship, that's for sure. It's to square-edged for a vasudan ship, but still to slim for a terran ship. It's hard to tell at this point, as the model is very basic.

By the way, I constantly have to think of that carrier from WCP:SO named "Zerberus" - that's probably the reason why it reminds me of various WC ships.

...well...like I said...it's not planned on being freespacey...

as for the lack of detail, I'll get onto it sooner or later...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you didn't say that. :) Well, just keep at it. It looks nice nonetheless. Just an idea : reinforce the lower part of the front section, make it extend towards that long middle part. That should make it look less engine-heavy.

Edit : vocabulary. :doubt:

That could look very Freespace-y, actually.

It was originally a Vasudan destroyer design, but the Vasudans never built it, then some Terran engineer stumbled across the blueprints and modified them a bit...

Thats tight. Never thought of using lego models as designs before. Good idea.

My instincts say it could fit better in the Star Wars universe.

One of my better-recieved 3D models was actually based on a five-piece lego creation...

It doesn't HAVE to be FreeSpacey! I think it's ok.
But personally, I like the LEGO(TM) version BETTER!

Everytime I see a LEGO(TM) ship, I think the REPLICATORS are comming for my ass!

:lol:

(hint to the SG-1 Team, make LEGO(TM)  Replicator ships!)

Add some "wings" on the side of the middle bit and bulk it up a bit.

:wtf: Yeeeah... killer wrenches from space. I'm sure that'll happen... when Shivans fly! A-hahah... Wait...

Seriously, I think someone should make a Lego Mod with all the old M-Tron and Space Police sets. That would be awesome.

 
im sorry but the ship looks like one of my old designs.... if i can i will post it so u can see...
