Drew. If you don't like it say why. Offer constructive comments on what could be improved. What you said is absolutely worthless and if that's all you can contribute to the thread you'd be better off saying nothing at all.

If you've got a constructive comment to make, then say it.  If you've only got drivel to spout, take it somewhere else - because it doesn't help anyone, and it doesn't enrich our lives any more.  

And especially don't make comments like 'it looks ****' if you're unable to prove you can do better.

I'd actually take that one step back, as you don't need modeling experience to say what you don't like about a model.  Constructive criticism - that which points out concerns you may have about the shape or direction the model is going - is perfectly fine.  But to say it's not good without saying why is like telling a girl you've never seen that she's fat.  You just shouldn't do it.

I don't mean modelling experience necessarily, just design experience.

Like, um....

"for the underside, why not add a 'soft belly' - make it semi-circular from the front, add in stylistic 'ribs' for texture & surface variation, and then blend in some harded edge armoured / mechanical style surfaces at the rear for the engines, and possible in the midsection / front for heavy weapons.  Also maybe add a sort of underslung appearance from the side view (which I don't have, so guessing a bit from the top-perspective view here), with the curve downards starting just about at the midsection 'split'"


Or just complete the following 'it looks ****, because ....', which is really the least anyone can ask.

i think it could be a terran influence on vasudan design, 'cause were always seeing how vasudans make an impact on terran ships, weve got to do something better than them, so here it is

and i bet i can drop a high powered round through the ball at a thousand yards out in high winds.  

the point is....this is a thread about the model.  I bet i can shoot better than aldo or raa.  but can i model like them?  hell no.  so for me to say..."looks like ****" is a grave disservice not to them or the talent that they posess, but instead it is a grave disservice to all of the community.  because while I may be outdo either of them at something away from the freespace community, i certainly cannot achieve what they have within said community, so what i can beat them at doesn't matter to this community.  however the quality of that model does matter within these confines and in this context.  The best i can hope for is to say...i think that this would look cool.....and then tell them.

I would not think to disrespect someone else's talent when i haven't got that same talent.  if you are seriously wanting to disrespect the talent that raa has, by all means then do so, but do so after showing off your own talent, and thereby earning the right.

if there are too many large words in that for you, please allow me to simplify things:  put up or shut up.

and turumbar i was having that same thought a couple of nights ago.  instead of terran ships influenced by vasudan design, i would love to see vasudan ships influenced by terran design.

Aldo, Strat, Kara, and Shadow, Thank you. There are reasons I respect you, and this is but one.

Oh... *adds drew to his ignore list* since all I've ever seen him post is trolling, anyway.

Hey, Raa, I'm gonna have to not like this model. It seems too blocky, yet too smooth at the same time. Actually my first thought was that it was a human/covenant hybrid ship :D.

Maybe it could be a bit thicker and wider, it just looks too long and flat, like its made of paper.
