Yep, I just got to figure out how to do it...

Give it parking spaces for fighters.

And maybe docking points

[Mongoose]

Very, very nice. My only "request" would be to add a few more polies to the cable sections so that they look more natural and less jagged.  Other than that, keep up the good work.

[FireCrack]

I'd make the fighterbays by just carving a few odd triangular shapes into each "cup", kinda like the gun and missile tubes on shivan ships, scalene traingles.

[Raven2001]

Update, its around the 4000 polys

As you can see, I added a more substantial fighterbay


Oh, btw, I'm running out of ideas here... Shivan ships are a pain...

[Singh]

now that.....that..............

that is evil

and its going to be even more evil when it's textured O_o

[Ghost]

Holy awesome. Somebody texture this.

[Dave2040]

Ph34r t3h R4v4n4!!

The ship looks really fantastic
It looks even more evil than the Sathanas o_O

[Boomer]

Ahhhhhh!

Its Godzilla!

Oh, wait no.  That's his mother in law...

Kickass model man.  Truly kickass.

[Kie99]

That's even better than your Hecate

:yes:

[pyro-manic]

Hell yeah. Marvellous.

[AqueousShadow]

I don't know whether to piss my pants in joy or in fear.

[IncendiaryLemon]

Love the raised plaits over the midsection, fantastic modeling Raven

Not yet, I will still figure something to do next with it...

Also, sice the Ravana will end with a much lower poly count than the Hecate, I will texture it myself, with the original :V: tiles in Truespace

[Turambar]

just poking my head in a bit
(ive been off doing other stuff a while, but i lurk around here too)

its all awesome, the hecate, this but theres one thing that could suffer a small break from canon

could you make those tubes running from the back to the front a little more evil looking?  like more like the concept art thingy, that seems a little more shivan to me, not just 2 pipes running from one side of the ship to the back

just my opinion.

[Raven2001]

You may be right... I'll give it a shot

[Rott3]

Amazing work. Keep it up.

[Ulala]

About time, I say. Won't make my judgement until you get closer to finishing... or textured.

[Raven2001]

Update: It's coming along, although a bit slower than I expected, and it's nothing worth showing in pics...

Also, keep in mind that you won't see any updates before August 18th. I'll be out untill that period
