Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
Hi!
recently started to model again  :nervous: so I decided to redesign my ever first model, the Newet. (a vasudan anti fighter cruiser/frigate).
keep in mind I have only just started on it today so it's very unfinished.

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
Welcome back, Oddgrim. That's a great start! :) I love it.

There's nothing bad in that cruiser, I'd love to see more details on it :drevil:

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
Hope this will be constructive: Make the engines much bigger. Now they look kinda small. It doesn't seem this ship could move with such small engines.

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
I disagree. Maybe some trailing fins around the exhausts would help define them but there's no way of knowing how far back into the hull the drives go.

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
I don't think it looks very Vasudan but it does look great.

 
Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
Oooo very flash!  :p

It does look like it has some Vasudan aspects, but do you know what it closely resembles the most?

The Liir from Sword of the Stars by Kerberos Productions. As aquatic creatures, many of the curves, as well as those eye looking things up front and the tail fins on this cruiser are dominant features of the Liir.

So far, it looks terrific. Keep this one up.

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
With the right textures I think it could look FS1 era (the head reminds me vaguely of the Horus, and it's overall not as "smooth" as the FS2 era stuff).

I actually kind of like it. I also agree; we need more high-quality Zod stuff.

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
The older Newet looks considerably more (FS2) Vasudan than this one.

not really in my opinion, the old  model is hardly better then a few blocks clobbed together by cavemen, then giveing it a hasty tile texturing.  :p
What made that model more vasudan is the texture choice and not the actually the model itself.
But I do however agree it doesn't look much now hence the it's a wip  :p

I think the problem is the thick plates are too thick.

on the engines I would be tempted to make them follow the outline of the hull

The bottom (floor reflection) looks kinda Sobek style. However the normal view make it somehow less vasudan :/

Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
I like the bottom of the front, but the insets are too jagged IMO... I think a nested plating look would suit it better. And the rear seems to lack substance... although it is a tad like that structure on the rear of the Satis.

Got any reference pics of the 'original'?

 
Re: Vasudan cruiser redesign WIP
Oh come on, this isn't Vasudan, like starwolf said it's Liirian.  Or at least it could be without the plates and with a proper blue and gray paint job.  Either way its still a ship crewed by fish-faces.

[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems
